Good old phone solicitation. Psychic reading is one of the most outlandish. IF the art is possible, how can it ever be practiced over the phone, through the wires, hundreds of miles away. You easily met the requirement of "dribble."

Good one.

    Oh, I see where you came from. This must have been a blind entry or a voting booth? I read it and rated. So, you thought you would come see what that fat old fart has on FS. I am tickled to see you checking out my portfolio. Hope to see more of you.

Excellent entry for the 50 Word Flash Fiction writing prompt contest.
I love gypsies, as you might guess (*<>*)

Good words count and story line. A great presentation and imagery. It flows well with descriptive words that paint a clear mental picture.

Good luck in the contest.

This fifty-word flash fiction story, Advertising, has the required word count and gives an example of how one can lose money even while home alone.

Do psychics just give us a reading we would like to hear? Most people live ordinary, uneventful lives, but a psychic can make our life feel special, different and wonderful, I have never been to one though, a poignant write, love Dolly x

    Hellow Dolly. You're nice. Don't do it. I called it was $13 a minute on Sunday. Prices have escalated. So, I didn't get a phone reading. Thank you. Love always your friend :)

A neat short story. You even worked in a twist at the end. The story has a start, a slight tension, and a resolution that resolves nothing.

A neat read. Thanks for sharing.

I liked your choices of words. The gnawing at attention and the annoying voice prompts. I cringe at those things. You showed it perfectly. I'm not sure if I understood the last part but it seemed to me that the person on the other end was telling her she could pick her reading. Any way, this was a cute piece of flash fiction.

    You're not into psychics. That's good. I grew out of tarot readings. You're nice. Thank you :)
