Very well written and way to tell a whole story in 100 words. It was a brief story but the little twist surprised me at the end, I loved it! And congrats on getting third for it!

Poor Danny Doggie. I really admire writers who can complete an entire story in so few words. You've identified your characters, set the scene and concluded your story. Well done.

Stories written from the point of view of the dog, the hot dog, the door knob, the raindrop, the bar, exercises in some sort mental game whereby humans like to think we can imagine what's going on in the (head?) of all of these various creatures/inanimate objects. You've got to have a real imagination for it.

This poem is well written. I like the story of Danny. I think it is interesting putting the family altogether. Excellent work! No mistakes found. Thanks for sharing!

The pandemic affects humans and animals alike. It is a sad state of affairs when animals have to suffer about something they do not understand. Good contest entry!

Very nice writing, I was not expecting the twist for some reason, but you got me. I suppose the dog would know the change when everyone was home and not getting the usual attention! Nice work!

Comment from Jeffrey L. Michaux
I like this. The way you started this made Danny sound like a human being. Well played! I'm sure that he is a great dog and attentively watched the game receiving attention when he could get it. Thanks for sharing this well written work. Well done!

That's a very cute and adorable story, with a plot twist that I didn't expect. It's quick witted and creative. Well done. The picture, you chosen to accompany your story, is perfect for it.

I loved the little twist at the end of this one. I really thought Danny was a person for the first half. Great job at concealing the ending and writing a great story!

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Great image and game, too.
-We have played it a lot
over the years, and it
gets competitive:)
-A good story, as well.
-You set up the scene with
everyone home, but poor
Danny was ignored.
-Things just weren't the same,
and then there was that
weird shout everyone was
excited about!
-A good ending, and
Danny is happy:)
-Good luck in the contest;
I enjoyed your story.
