When I first starting reading this I thought I was gonna have to get out my red pen and go to work, and then I realized that this was a satire and sat back and went for a fun and amusing ride. What an imagination you have! Well done....

    Your experience was one that several others shared. One newbie actually gave me three stars but sweetly encouraged me that I was a good writer who needed to learn to spell better. :) Thank you for reviewing and glad you enjoyed it! Dennis

This is delightful Dennis. Hilarious, clever and just plain fun. A wonderful take on the new reviewers. It was a LOL piece. Thank you for sharing your humor with us. We tend to take ourselves too seriously from time to time.
Blessings

This is hilarious, Dennis. When I first started reading it, I thought "OMG look at all those errors." But it didn't take long to figure out what you were doing here. Thank you for giving me a chuckle or two and great choice of image, by the way.

    Thanks Connie, I appreciate your reviewing. One newbie gave me a 3 star rating because she took it seriously. In spite of that low score she told me I was a good writer. LOL She'll learn, just like we all did. :) Dennis

    Wow! The Queen of Fanstory checks in with a bow in my direction. I'm printing and framing this one for sure! Thanks so much, Phyllis. I'm so happy that you got a laugh out of it. :) DEnnis

    Dennis, I don't know how I could have missed your wonderful humor! I just read the one from Nov. 19th (didn't write review) and it was great too. So I became a fan. Love good humor, and we don't have nearly enough at FS. Looking forward to more. :)

    Queen? LOL! Thanks for the promotion. I was thinking more like court jester...oh, but that would be YOUR job, wouldn't it? Gotta be SOMETHING more fitting for me than queen. Maybe scullery maid?

    You will always be the Queen in my book. You gave me my first serious rebuke...I mean review on FS and I realized how far I had to go. Still trying to inch along... you're the best! Dennis

    Gollywhillikers, don't know what to say.

    I was rather strict when I started here, being a retired teacher. I won the reviewer award the second month I was here, but then realized I was grading papers, and that's a JOB. I'm not here to work! So now I'm not so picky. I'm glad you found it helpful, in any case. Hope I wasn't too harsh. :)

    Anyhow, you just made my day. Thanks! :)

A very clever write on things a newbie should watch out for. It's funny that the worst new poets seem to give the highly experienced poets bad ratings. I guess we were all newbies at one time. I love your spags--very entertaining~Debbie

    Thank you Debbie, glad you enjoyed it. I had fun writing it as well. Ironically, a newbie gave me a three star review but encouraged me that with some work I could be a good writer. :) I'm working on it. DEnnis

This is a fun read and lots of good messages here. Enjoyed the humour. The misspellings were hilarious. Do something like this again sometime.

LOL. Love your spilling of words, and how to handle bad reviwers. Didn't know that about the polish writers. What's next Native Americans? Really enjoyed reeding your tips. Tanks for sharing. Les

LOL and LOL again, Deniz. You forgot one of the cardinal rules though... You have to offer at least a dollar in membercents before most reviewers will waste their time reading your offering.. But I guess you disproved that myth by offering us only 62 cents on this piece. It was worth every bit of my time to read it though. It gave me a bunch of LOLs. Thanks for the chuckles.

    I've read some good ones for far less than my extravagant payment of 62 cents. Of course, they were mine so maybe that doesn't count? Glad you liked it. I enjoyed writing it so maybe we both got our 62 cents worth? :) Dennis

Glad you put some money on this. A clever spoof on writing rules. Love the misspellings. Even the title carries a message--redundacy. I wonder how many readers caught that!
Love #5 with the mix up of grammar and gramma -- dialect humor. Good one, Dennis. We need more hummus of the sight. LOL

    You're the first to catch that, but that doesn't surprise me. Every exclamation point was on your behalf! :) Glad to make you LOL for sure. Best to you always, Dennis
