All I have to say is I must have been tripping on acid to sing in front of a group. Lol. Your story was inventive and fun and uniquely your own. It's so fun to see what everyone else is envisioning. Great entry. Gretchen

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
What a great story, Jacob! I'm behind on my reviewing and was just settling down to binge-read your "His Silence" and, lo and behold, there you are at the convention (and me too, my goodness, I must have been drunk to have erased that from my memory!) But I would love to have heard you, Mr Brightside! You may have felt a little self-conscious but I bet you stormed it, just like you're doing here with your captivating murder mystery! Loved this write and your modest reticence amidst the rabble (and who could blame you?). You seem to have missed the food throwing fiesta, lucky you! Well done Debbie

Thank you, Debbie, perhaps it was a good thing I missed the food throwing. I definitely had to include you in my piece. I'm pleased that you enjoyed it.

I am so glad you contributed here Jacob and I enjoyed your inventive story as you introduced a bit of karaoke into the mix here and you starred with your performance.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
Dearest Mr. Brightside ~
You have done yourself proud with this masterpiece of a chapter!! I am so glad you joined this FS circus.
I love the way you perfectly described your worry and hesitancy, your nerves as they accelerated, and finally how you swallowed them all down and came to the spotlight! Now THAT's the spirit!!
And you're right! Now people will DEFINITELY know who you are: a rising FS star!!!
Thank you for this delightful contribution. It is perfect.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
What a way to get to sing. I think I would rather read my writing. You smoothed it all out nicely into a real meeting. No Jane. Smart choice. Or have they killed her? She certainly deserves it.

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Jacob, I'm so delighted to see you give "your version" of what happened at the convention. This would be something Rachelle would throw at people last-minute, so totally believable.
I'm thinking there's a little bit of realism mixed in here, wanting more readers and to be known better in the community you belong to is natural. But with friends like Debbie and Carol, it's only a matter of time.
I love all the different perspectives I read, and I find yours very original. Thanks for jumping into the fray and sharing with us.

Comment from pome lover
well, shoot! I wish I had heard you sing! I bet you wowed 'em! That is something I wouldn't do no matter what. No way. but good for you!!
You've made this very interesting with your descriptions of the place and your dialogue - all very good. And you talk about the other guests there very knowledgably. I'm going to have to look up Debbie D'Arcy and see if she has spiky hair. :)
I'm sorry I don't have a 6, but your post was well written and most enjoyable.

Comment from Lea Tonin1
That was great fun! I like how you express your nervousness and trepidation at reading at first and then having to sing. I can imagine you standing there with your knees.Knocking hands holding a piece of paper and just shaking a bit. But you triumphed, in the end, as only you could do in Jacob style! I fine and enjoyable read. Thank you so much for this! Have a great day!

Comment from patcelaw
This is very well written, and I very much enjoyed listening to it. It has been amazing. The stories that people have told about this convention for fan story. I enjoyed it very much. I wish I could've been there, but because of my vision and because of my health, I could not make it. Even though somebody early on had said, they spotted me there. I was not there. So somebody tried to take my identity in order to be there.

"Get back in that cage, Jacob!" LOL And you were worried about reading something...Oh brother, what a song to sing! Did you dance too! LOL
I loved the story and thank you for putting me in the spotlight with you as well. Though I am glad I wasn't on that stage singing with you. So shall I call you Mr. Brightside from now on?
Great job, Jacob.... Yes, people will know who you are and I am glad...You deserve to have them reading what you write.
Smiles and hugs, Carol

You were more than kind. Thank you! I am about to post a follow-up called The Morning After! Just a bit of humor!
Have a great day!
