Pretty Woman
A very short romantic episode9 total reviews
Comment from Wendy G
A very clever piece, and that song by Roy Orbison was a clever inclusion. Your descriptions are excellent, and your use of the necessary words was smoothly executed and not jarring. Well done. Best wishes for your entry.

This one-hundred-word story, Pretty Woman, has the proper word count and seems to be making the famous song by Roy Orbison come to realization. ...........

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Nice artwork and story to go with it.
-A good job with the required words,
and thanks for highlighting them.
-A very good opening hook, followed
by very good descriptive detail of his
observations about her, her dress, her face, and hair.
-I also like your closing section as she
makes a sudden departure, and he is
hearing a few lines of Roy Orbison's song.
-A very good conclusion that is open ended.
-When the contest is over, you should do a follow up.
-I enjoyed reading it, and it is very well written.
-Good luck in the contest.

Thank you so much, Pam, for your marvelous praise of PRETTY WOMAN and all those stars. I enjoyed writing this one because I love the song and the artwork.

You are very welcome. I like the artwork and song, too, especially when it's sung by Roy Orbison.
Comment from Begin Again
Now Roy Orvison had some woman in mind when he wrote the song, so it might as well been this one. Fits perfectly and the story works for the contest. Good luck!

Yes, I often wondered who the woman was that Roy Orbison wrote about. Julia Roberts showed up much later in the film. Many thanks, Carol, for your praise of my story.
Comment from lancellot
A nice flash story with a hopeful and happy ending. It was the perfect ending a romance flash, and I like the addition of the musical lyrics. Those who are fans will recognize them immediately.
Well done and good luck.

Comment from Patty Mazzurco
Your piece has a charming and vivid quality that captures a romantic and somewhat whimsical moment beautifully. The way you describe the woman, with her red dress and auburn tresses, really brings her to life and creates a sense of enchantment. The integration of Roy Orbison's lyrics adds a nostalgic and personal touch that enhances the atmosphere of your encounter.
