Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
Hi Ulla, I've just popped back for a short time hoping to find some of your stories to read. I've just been going through your profile and you are a prolific poet these days! I enjoyed this short 'dialogue only' piece, and you managd to put in a moral to the story as well. Your writing is so good now. Well done, Giddy

Comment from Gloria ....
Haaaaaa, this is a hoot Ulla. Jonas seems like such a little sweetie even if using some kind of unusual vernacular.
This is a superb entry into the contest and I wish you much luck with the Committee. :)

Comment from Sankey
Wishing you all the best with this. A great read and I loved the picture as well. I hope it is a winner for you. Sadly, the same ones seem to win everything in here most of the time.

Comment from Ben Colder
Very clever. I can relate to this write. Writing sometimes in order to place the reader there requires a change in dialect. I refrain to the depth of the West Virginians Yen, etc. It blows the readers mind. Very good contest piece. Hope you win.

Comment from Sugarray77
You have done a great job on the dialogue only prompt, Ulla. I like the witty repartee that you share and think the peppy pace is perfect for this one. Well done and good luck.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Cute image, Ulla.
-I think it adds to
the dialogue in the story, too.
-I can picture it taking place.
-You give these characters
distinct personalities, and
I enjoyed their banter.
-Of course, each has his
own idiosyncrasies.
-One gets irritated because
Jonas just doesn't speak right;
of course, how do we define right?!
-But Jonas doesn't back away,
and has his own retort.
-I really liked this, Ulla,
and hope ya', uh, well, you
know, ah, do well in the contest-
I'm just sayin', like ya' know?

Hahahahha, Pam. Thank you so much. I'm glad you commented on the picture because it was meant to be and add on to the wee story. Thanks for your comments and a great and fun review. Ulla xx

You are welcome, Ulla. I looked at some of your reviews, and I just thought those cute little penguins were part of it. I couldn't resist the last part, and am glad you liked it!
-
I loved it. I can't believe the reception I've got. I'm so glad! :)))

You are quite welcome, Ulla. You find such great pictures, and then things take off! Glad you are getting good reception for it.
Comment from Mistydawn
This is a cute bit of dialogue you have here. It's well-written, interesting, believable. A friend's mannerisms do get annoying at times. Nicely done.

Comment from humpwhistle
Ah, we all talk funny. And write funny, too. I love the our different sounds, even our different spellings.
Almost everything I write is based on dialect--and mostly within my own country.
I fink this is a winna!
Peace, Lee
(I think you missed a couple of question marks)

Wow, Lee, I don't know what to say. Have you really given me a six star? Thank you!! I'm so pleased. I've added the question marks. I know you love to write dialect of which you're an expert. Ulla xx
Comment from royowen
Cockneys tend to to speak all funny like. There are many weird and wonderful accents in England Ulla,and they change in a few miles. A very clever entry in this dialogue ontest, well done, blessings, Roy
