This one-hundred-word story on the theme of 'prisoner', Suburban Prisoner, takes us up out of our comfortable chairs and has us imagine an even better state of affairs. Launching a book, man! Nice.

A good 100-word write. I've lived in suburbia and in California, not too far from LA. Not so free in CA either, but the glamour of it is that you think you are and that makes your story all the more perfect. Marilyn

Hi there,
it's funny how a normal life can seem to turn into a trapped situation on the toss of a dime, isn't it.
Another ping on his 1Phone - should this be IPhone?

Sounds like Johnny's thinking the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. LA seems to be more of a prison than suburbia... look at me, you got me thinking.... that's what makes a good story. Good luck in the contest.

Great review zanya
Comment from Bridget Myer
I really enjoyed this piece...it made me think one mans dream is another prison.
I think I would prefer the dream- 'lucky, house in suburbia, permanent job'.
Well written, you captured the text speak, the thoughts and the description 'pallid face flushed. He loosened his tie'. His response to thinking his mate was actually achieving.
Well written, You stayed within the constraints of competition exceptionally well engaging the reader exceptionally well

Great review zanya
Comment from rspoet
This is an excellent and interesting story for the contest
with a little different idea of prisoner.
Johnny seems to have a very good life,
surprised he was so easily swayed by Mike's text.
Excellent entry for the contest
Good luck in the voting
