Comment from BeasPeas

Excellent

Really a good one--this "Gotch'" no 's' poem of yours. A little story complete in a few short lines--and I enjoyed them all. A fun read.

Thank you for going back into my portfolio to review this little story, BeasPeas. I love this prompt to write without using the letter 's' because it's difficult and quite the challenge. I'm delighted you enjoyed it and appreciate your kind comments and review. Thanks!

A great Halloween story except the zombie wasn't too happy with the result from his sleeping sister. He had his fun and a punch too, I guess, smiles.
Great story and good luck.
Cheerio, hugs, Ritchie. :))

I can only imagine how difficult this must have been to write! You did it well, and even managed to turn out a funny and cute little story all at the same time!

What a story so wonderfully written in 50 words without using 's'! I tried to enter the contest but it ended up in a hang-up. Same thing happened when I wanted to have a little fun writing this review without using 's'. I feel lucky to be part of FS that brings out so many unusual contests.

You did well here creating a story without using the letter S. I can see the two siblings together on Halloween,fighting like siblings often do. I wish you well in the contest.

Well, this little story was a difficult task for any writer to accomplish without any "S's." You did a great job and even managed to make it funny and entertaining. :-)

Comment from Thewriterwithnoname

Excellent

Well put together considering that you can't use any S's. I'm not so sure about the placement of "Laughing, he blew the air-horn." I feel like that should come before he says anything to scare her witless. Blowing the horn after making his presence known just makes it annoying instead of startling.

Thanks for taking the time to read and review my micro story, Thewriterwithnoname. I very much appreciate your suggestion in how to improve the story. I actually thought of his blasting the air-horn first, but his sister wouldn't have heard anything he said after that. Thanks for your comments.
