Comment from Raffaelina Lowcock
When the chips are down is when you learn who your true friends are. Bootsy doesn't get to know how she was deserted, so that part is spared. But what does it really matter to Bootsy, she's gone.
No better example than the one given in your Author's note.

Comment from dragonpoet
This is a sad story. That he couldn't just call 911 or someone to remove the body before he ran. It seemed she realized she overdosed and was calling 911 for herself, a little to late.
This short story gives the sad story of the effects to drug addiction and how self oriented it makes you.
Good job
Joan

This was short per the requirements but very well done. It painted a wonderful picture of friends through words. And it included all the necessary words. It was beautiful in its own sense. Thank you so much Bob.
(I decided to check your site and read some stuff from before my time here.)

Comment from tfawcus
This plumbs the depths of addiction and the bitter, sardonic tone adds a certain edge. There is something bordering on the poetic when one can condense so much meaning into so few words. Nicely written, my friend.

Oh, now I see what you are doing and how nice of you Tony. You are perusing my portfolio, it seems. Wow! I haven't had anybody do that in an awful long time. I used to write sdome fairly good short stories and poetry before I decided to write novels. I hope to get back to some of it after I finish the book. Bless you, my friend and thanks so much. Bob

Hi, Anna. Thanks so much for your review of this older piece from my port. I used to write a lot of poetry, but this novel I am working on has tied my hands to a degree as far as spending my reviewing certs on promotion of the book. (if that makes any sense) I must be honest...I pay well over a dollar for reviews on the chapters of my book and would appreciate your input on my prose writing rather than my poetry. As these are the things that concern me the most right now. I hope you understand. Now, if you are a person who does not like to read prose that much and dit would be like pulling teeth, don't worry about it. I understand and appreciate that fact. Bob
Comment from pipersfancy
This a very skillful weaving of the required words into a gut-wrenching flash-fiction story. Told with the lost emotional tone of a drug addict, I'm sure this story plays out in 'real-life' far too many times in any given city, every year.
Well done!

See I can read your other writings until Sunday. This was just as good as your other story but too short. I understand that was the contest but no fair. Yours, Teresa.

I am reading "Falling up the Stairs" don't feel like you have to reply to all my reviews after all you still have to review the rest of your 1,000 fans. You know I am not exaggerating. Teresa.

There is so much of this in the world today. People like this don't know how alone they are. I'd like to take them all in and tell them about the love of God. Good work. MJ

Comment from amahra
Oh no all the sixes are gone. This is really good. You did a lot in just 100 words. It was very engaging. I would love to read a longer story of it. Do you have one? Oh...by the way, I'm back. All my surgeries are behind me.
