Comment from Bill Schott

Excellent

This flash fiction story, Her Scarlet Lips, shows an intimate moment between a tissue and its chance at glory. Nice, a kiss off is better than a load of snot.

Thanks for your review!

Ha, this is a terrific flash fiction Lisa. All the lead up that appears to be leading somewhere else does in fact end as quite a unique surprise ending.

Best of luck to you with the Contest Committee.

I'm pleased Ii could keep the pretence up about what was actually going on. Thanks for your good wishes.

A day in the life of a Kleen ex, unless we wander into the realm of derivative and metaphor...looks clean enough to me, an excellent flash with the desired twist.

Yes, we all just end up used and tossed aside at times.
Thanks for your review and comments.

Well you sure had me guessing there. A day in the life of a tissue. I never would have guessed that. Very original. I wish you lots of luck in the competition. Best wishes. Jen.

Lol. Poor tissue. I guess that could be metaphorical for how some might feel in their relationships. Fun flash fiction and I especially liked "kiss-shaped pout."

Thanks for your review! Don't be sorry for the tissue... think it rather enjoyed the experience in a sado-masochistic kinda way.

You did a good job with your little story, LisaMay. It read smoothly, not 'smutty' in any way. Your lines were well thought out. I like how you revealed what 'it' was in case some missed it--but I got it the first time. Best wishes. Jan

Ah, you are too clever for me... I shall have to be more devious!

Hahaha, a day in the life of a Kleenex, 'ey, Lisa?
If you're worried about it being too "suggestive", I wouldn't be if I were you.
The clever ending puts everything into perspective and I've read far more suggestive entries than yours which included no warning.Good work, and good luck!

Thanks for reassuring me on the smut scale. Some folks are quick to take offence these days.

Hi Lisa-May,
I enjoyed this...from the perspective of a tissue - how original and fun!
It wasn't too suggestive at all - it was just the right amount suggestive!
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes, Debra :)

Lisa, this is a very clever flash fiction and you have done it well. It is the mind of the reader that takes to a place that you did not take it. Good luck in the contest.

I have no idea why anyone would see this as offensive. It's very clever - and funny. I enjoyed it and was trying to work out what it was. Well done and good luck.
