Comment from hvysmker
Geeze, Carol. I find there's only today to read all these entries, each at least 700 words. I haven't got time for a line critique.
I think my own favorite opening line was:
"Gladys gave a last mighty grunt, depositing a glob of mucous out of her ass."
(Gladys was a wasp building a nest.)
Good luck,
Charlie

S'Okay, Carol. You'll know better the next time. Besides, I don't recall any mistakes anyway.

Not silly enough..child, this is sillier than I ever get. As for you - it would have to be a steamy role and would need a name...
I fear with the way you write you would be offended by my feeble attempts. But I will work on it...I hope the story introduced you to a wide world at FanStory...Smiles, Carol
Comment from L.lora
Carole I loved this, and yes
I know that when giving a review
it is not professional to make that
type of statement. So, for the dry
technical stuff, this is tight, well
thought out and a very easy flowing
read-- but then you already new that.
So back to the fun stuff. Insanity or
no, sounds like you had a muse group
party. Listen, mind has been out some
where for the past month, so maybe
that stinker is at your house. If so,
good luck and watch out-- a real prankster.
This was such a fun read, I completely enjoyed
it and am sitting here with a very large smile.
Excellent. :)Lora

I have no idea where this one exploded from - except to blame all those new muses. I don't think your guy is hanging out here though cause I certainly haven't been able to write any beautiful tribal poetry nor conjure up even the slightest of mystical beings...I'm just pain flat in that area. I certainly hope he returns home to you though. You two make such a wonderful team. Thanks for enjoying my silly writing. Carol

Comment from adewpearl
That's funny - ten minutes ago I was reading a couple Branski chapters. LOL And I hound Jada all the time to give me a new Jake chapter. I hate to disillusion you, but I actually enjoy gallows humor and a good gory scene, though you are quite right, I don't want any bloody murder scenes dirtying up my descriptions of snowy woods! LOL I love all the references to your fellow writers and appreciate being included :-) This was lots of fun to read :-) Brooke

I hoped that you would enjoy it. I've seen your reviews on some gory stuff so I knew you read them...but not mixed in with your poems...Thanks for the fracious review. Carol
Comment from Sonya Florentino

Comment from Margaret Snowdon
I just loved it -- what talent
you have, a real natural - no wonder
you were tops in the short works (I
did send you a congratualtions, didn't
I - I do have senior moments) By the
way, I can't stand Sherlock Holmes,
and if you think I don't like gory
then you didn't read Vengeance Is Mine.
I think this is a great write, Carol,
light-hearted and entertaining, which
holds the interest - deserving of a
six.
Margaret.

I'm stunned and most appreciative. Glad you understood I took just a "wee bit" of freedom so that it would fit with the story. Besides everyone always thinks of your landscapes and beautiful poems..I'd forgotten about Vengeance, but now I do recall you having a "streak" in you. LOL
I can't believe you were so generous with your stars, but I am humbled and gratefully appreciative. Thanks you ....Sending you smiles, Carol
Comment from Brivaeh
I did enjoy your silliness, and I can only imagine the smiles on the faces of those more familiar with you. I must say for a "new bee" you sure do seem familiar with a lot of talented writers. I believe I recognized a name or two. Good job, and keep up with the quirkiness, it was fun.

Comment from skye
I find it humorous and very entertaining, with the use of familiar writer's names and their chosen genre.
It was well written, funny, and real...
You have a gift for looking beneath the surface, recognizing each foible and strength and using it to make something fun to read.
Very well done.
