FS Party, BYOB

Comment from ajdevore
Okay, I loved this. I really did. It was extremely clever, and I loved all the ideas and observations about the site. The picture was nice too. Only problem for me was the name-dropping made it seem kind of in-group, as if you didn't have any awards and a lot of followers, you weren't invited to the party. I know you did't intend it that way, just thought you might want to know how I felt. (or not)

Waas simplt trying to acknowledge the stars on site, but get your meaning. Trouble is the nebies are invible until they come ino your radar.
Comment from MumEsGirl
Great story, well written and in keeping with the contest rules.
However,the BYOB rule is a little on the stingy side. What is wrong with a few bottles of turpentine mixed with tonic water, cheap and cheerful, at least until the morning lol.
Loved it, best of luck

Comment from Joy Graham
Bravo! I enjoyed your party very much :) I would have loved to be there to see some of the members in person and sharing stories. I cheered when you mentioned freedom of speech. Bible thumpers? perhaps a few of us lol. I love the idea of trailing stars, people extending blue ribbons. Your famous author caught me by surprise but I loved your speech! A very magical party :)

thanks. You created this contest. Are you not playing?

I don't think I have enough time to create a story. I'm looking to learn better writing techniques from the pros on this one :) I'd have to pull an all nighter. Whine, whine, whine...

Just curious why you would use your FS$ to create...you could learn as much from reading existing members stories you admire. Suggest you go to the top ten list on the right side of screen and click on members name. It will takr you to their profile and then read their winning stories.

I just wanted to try it. I do tons of reading on this site and am learning a lot.
Comment from Fluffyhead
I like what you did with this prompt. I hope you win. The variety of characters is pretty wide ranging. I hate when people don't read the warnings and get all mad at you too. Anyway thanks for the read.

Hope you enjoyed the apetizers.
Comment from highlander104
Wow! I am humbled. What a wonderful testimonial for FanStory and beautifully presented. I think the Toms should consider this as part of their "indoctrination" into this wonderland of writing. It certainly would encourage newcomers.
Good luck in the contest.

You are far too kind, both with your generous rating and kind words.

Mystery Author. I really got a kick out of your story. You did a very good job and I am sure your party would have been a success. I loved how you included some of the more prominent names from Fanstory in your story. Newbies would feel well wecomed for sure. Good luck in the contest.

Dear FStorian,
This is well written and does a good job of presenting the merits of FS well. You made me comfortable just reading it. I agree, FS is a good site for aspiring writers, particularly those of us who sprinkle our writing with SPAG. There are many on this site who have helped me correct my errors.
Regards,
A fellow fanstorian.
