This is a really sweet 100 word story about little Smokey and the scoot mobile. You used very good descriptive wording. Best wishes in the contest! Teri

This is really a very interesting story for something that can be related to the reader in only 100 words. The image works perfectly with the storyline. Good luck in the contest.

Hmmm...this is written as if it were spoken in broken English, much like someone from another country who is still learning the English language.
Sentences like: "I have hit him a couple of times with it, just by mistake: his or my one." would read much better as: "I have hit him with it a couple of times by mistake--his or my own."
And the following: 'How many miles we made? ONE TO HUNDRED.' should read something like: "How many miles have we traveled?
About one to a hundred."

Anyhow, just some observations for you to consider.
Good luck.

I wanted to give you a heads-up review. I ran the story through Microsoft word, and it counted only 96 words, not 100 words. You may want to check your word count. Good luck in the contest

After reading 'One Dog', I find that it follows the guidelines of the contest and makes a good entry.
The image shown supports the topic discussed in the story.

Suggestion: At the end, 'ONE TO HUNDRED'- that just doesn't sound right. Try something like (About a hundred). Just my opinion.

Thanks for sharing your Hundred Word Story.
Good luck with your future writing.

I enjoyed reading your story about Smokey and your grandy-bike-moped-scooter.
My dog jog alongside when I go for a bike ride down by the river. She's good and well trained. Now and then she gets distracted and gets bumped by the front wheel. Luckily, we've had no spills.

Aw, I'm glad little Smokey goes on the scooter with you. I'm glad you can get out that way and walk him.

Good luck in the contest.

I did not count your words, but presumably you followed the contest criteria. I enjoyed your story. There seems to be one or two filler words, but they do not distract from the story at all.

I think you meant "learned," not "leaned."

Good luck in the contest.

After that long journey the dog will have sore feet.
Your 100 word story about a dog and a scooter is a good one.
best of luck in the contest.
Cheers, Kev
