Comment from Bill Schott

Excellent

This fifty-word humorous story, The Contest, has the required word count and seems to imply that we c@n make a contest out of just about anything here. Now I wonder if patty cake is still something I could learn.

Well, at least she won SOMETHING even if it's just the instructions as to how to play "patty cake." I like how you built some suspense and anticipation about whether Audrey won or not.

I suppose every girl has played Patty Cake. Good luck in the contest.

Hurry and delete your author's note or you will be disqualified! Add it again when the contest is over. Read the fine print. I learned my lesson...

Well, she was probably excited to receive mail and the prize even though it didn't seem like much, Mystery Author. I enjoyed your fun little contest entry. The picture is perfect. Thanks for sharing and best wishes. Respectfully, Jan
