I must ask you how the dreadful virus is in Canada? I pray that it will soon end, leave us alive, happy instead of sad and perhaps dreadfully ill. I feel so sad for the people who have lost loved ones from this dreadful disease. 2021 has to be better!

A very well-written dialogue only about the coronavirus and how it will develop over to be next few years making more of them to keep the world hostage for their evil plans.

This piece of literary work tells a story . Thanks for writing in such a way that we can understand. For people like me who try to avoid the news because of the sad reality, I was able to understand a lot . Well written .

Like how you took something that is relevant today and added a little humor to it. The spooky thing about these viruses is what is stated at the end: there will be more sisters and brothers after me. That is chillingly true ð??©

I wish we had never had to hear the word Covid. I am sure that come November it will be a thing that passes after the election.

Very well done, my friend. This dialogue flows quite naturally and keeps one's interest all the way through. You may want to correct this line however: "just to be in tone with your wine analogy." in TUNE not Tone.

    Hi Bob, thank you so much for your wonderful review, my Romanian stays in the way sometimes:) we say tone, you are saying tune:)

    Hi Iza. I do realize that you have these differences in language, however, It makes it difficult to offer suggestions because you always seem to be aware of the mistakes (or what I consider mistakes) What should I do? I don't want to offer suggestions if you are not able to use them?? :) Bob

    Yes, I get that. : ) Bob

It's funny because I had said at the beginning that it seems like I've lived through at least 10 pandemics; ebola, bird flu, SARS, mad cow, etc etc etc and now Covid. Or should I say Coronella? Good work and good luck in the contest. Later daze.

Well-done and unfortunately, the truth, I fear. Your dialogue is crisp, the speakers differentiated, the plot line clear. I picked up on a double meaning here:

The name they gave you sounds like a wine line.

- Smart like your mother, it does sound like wine.

whine as in to complain?

Wickedly clever--dark humor indeed--I too hate to call it COVID-19--I say Corona--Coronella does sound human female--some association with Cruella (de Vil) ==the (D)evil woman from 101 Dalmations! Fine work--you may have a winner! Cheers. LIZ

Well, they can keep their new wine line to themselves, Iza. You did a good job with your dialogue contest entry. I enjoyed reading it. Your use of dialogue flows well, it sounds natural, and adds many details. Did you intend to spell the family name Coronei and not Coronella. In the second paragraph, you used the word 'better' two time in close proximinity. Perhaps the second one could be 'it makes me feel important.'

I wanted from you to deny it, [ I was hoping you would deny it and say there is no . . . ]

Please remember these are only suggestions or File 13.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan
