Ooh, you'd better be careful what you wish for, even subconsciously, and never say you'd give your soul. That is music to Licifer's ears, ha ha. Good story.

Excellent writing.
I found no grammar errors other than a few subjective comma placements.
Infomercials: Someone has to write those too.
Best of luck,
Dearl

Thank you so much for the positive review and five star rating. That's true. Someone will have to write the infomercials. Maybe Fenton will hire somebody else to do it. Thank you for the good luck wishes.

Comment from highlander104
This is an excellent character-driven story. Fenton's frustration comes through from the beginning until the time he "solves" his problem. Clean writing all the way through.
Great line. Little does Fenton know that 50% of his commissions means he has sold his soul:
[I don't put as much stock in souls as I used to, and your right arm is equally as useless. I want cash.]
Good luck in the contest.

Great job with this. I like the setting for the beginning and her telling him he was becoming a hack. Then he ends up selling his soul for the most innovative of ideas.
Best of luck in the contest. Good entry.

I always knew there had to be some story behind the invention of the infomercial. LOL I love your story about the devil and the writer and the deal they strike up to make the writer rich - great humor, excellent dialogue - a strong entry in this contest :-) Brooke
