The O is fading.20 total reviews
Comment from Brett Matthew West
Know this was written a long time ago and sure you got the matter resolved.
Things peachy keen here in Nashville right now.
Was down in Lake County, Florida when Ian went through.
Horrible nightmare for many people.
Happy to be home again unscathed.

Glad you are ok, mate. Yes, I love the keyboard covers I use now. Still have 3 more spares and probably time to wash this current one.

Hi Friend - enjoyed you post. My only suggestion is the tag's. I would have known who was speaking most of the time without, Geoff said, John said, etc. It is difficult with dialogue only, but kind of klunky for every paragraph. Also, missing a cap on John in one sentence. Hope you won your contest. Bill

Thanks Dolly. I wonder have you seen my wife's Tootsie55 account? She wrote about our Trips around Australia. I put the account up again as a lot were disappointed I did not go into m9ore detail about our trips as a disabled couple around 9our country. I deferred to Louise's work on the above account. Thanks for coming by. I painted the keys again the other night before going to bed, hehe.

What a good idea, clear nail polish for fading keys, I never knew that, thanks for the tip. I really enjoyed reading your dialogue only competition entry. Good luck and best wishes. Jen.

Thanks new friend. Have not met before I promise I will check out your stuff. A lot of reciprocating reviewing goes on in here even if Tom does not realize it. I did another paint the other night especially for that pesky "o" hehe.

Fun dialogue to read Sankey
I like it 'cause it was a witty and good natural conversation between you and your John is my eldest Nephew. Look like you better try another clear nail polish the one you are using is not doing its job.

It's been quite a while since I got here in time to read your posts, my friend.
I think I should thank you for the nail polish tip. My fading letters are alway thwe a, n. k, p and s. I've stopped wondering why, except for the n - I'm addicted to the ing-verbs, lol.

Yeah well it saves having to buy the keyboard and mouse wireless sets so often at $AUD50 a pop! Thanks for coming by. Seems I have helped a few of you out there.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written dialogue about the disappearing keys. I think it also have to do with the quality of the device. The device I'm using at the moment has no shift key, so there are many letters and signs I cannot use and I noticed my 'n' key is fading too.

"N" in your name probably as for me with the "o" and M and R although M and R are ok thus far. Thanks for coming along.
Comment from Joan E.
I am sorry that your first attempt to stop the disappearing keys was not entirely successful. I hope a second coat to at least the "o" keys provides the solution. With or without quotation marks, you made good use of dialog for this post. Best wishes in the contest- Joan

I enjoyed your contest entry, Sankey. I remember the earlier post that discussed the disappearing letters. Your dialogue flows smoothly and gets right to the point. I believe it is ok to leave the quotation marks off as you have done. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Jan

Thanks Jan. Everyone mostly agrees about no Quotation marks. As I said there were none in the contest example. I painted the keys again last night so they would dry while we slept, hehe.
Comment from Mastery
Hello, Mate. Yes, I would use quote marks for this, if my opinion means anything. I am not sure what the "o"s disappearing is here, but evidently it refers back to a previous post of yours. Without that info, I am in the dark. I cannot fathom using nail polish on the keyboard. LOL
Sorry. Good dialogue though, Geoff. Bob

Well it has worked on all the others mate. Thanks for coming by anyway. O's most used seeing I have them all through my name hehe. No one else says to use Quote marks and they did not have them in the example for the contest. But no worries.
-
Just do what you think is right, Geoff. :) Bob
-
No worries mate. Keep- the good Cleeve tale coming.

Cleve

Sorry had a feeling I got it wrong.
-
No big deal. Just look at the writing, Cleve is spelled about thirty times in each chapter. LOL Bob

Bad eyesight hehe.
