Hello Bill,
I don't know how long WORLDS will remain reposted for, but I might miss it as I have a lot of non-FS stuff going on at the moment that I need to take care of - shame as you seem to have made it really easy for us

Worlds is always available in my portfolio, but only promoted for another week.
Comment from sunnilicious
That sounds like an amazing deal. I enjoyed your infomercial. Well thought out and clearly written narrative. Money is a good enticement. I still don't know how the points add up. But those cents can be added up to millions... pennies at a time. No promises to you, but I know where to look now. Nice work :)

INSTRUCTIONS: Go to BILL SCHOTT, Portfolio, Worlds, Chapters, then run through them all. There are horses, spiders,octopuses, sloths, moles, praying mantises, etc. They are all worth six points and twelve cents.
The points are only important in climbing the reviewing ladder. The cents are to promote your own work, of course. These are promoted for another week then back to two cents.

You are a real stand up guy Bil. If I were not sitting down, I would stand up and cheer you. I don't think that I have ever enjoyed reading another writers joks, gags and funny stories as much as I enjoy reading yours. Keep up the good wrl.

Jeez, I spell like a doofus. I really am more eductae than it appears through my writing. What you see is a guy trying to type a coherent message way past his bedtime.
Comment from JudyE
I will have a look at these. The cut and paste option is a great idea. I sometimes find it quite difficult to come up with the 150 characters needed.

I had a blurb there but was told by two or three members that the site administrators might have a problem with it. My suggestion now would be to type one that?s mostly the same with a few words specific to the piece.

Hello to you to BILL SCHOTT
I like your way of sharing your Portfolio with us here on Fanstory. You are telling us that you are providing a cut and paste review that will work on each item and I you don't mind us doing so. I will try your method to review your works and see how it works.

It's been suggested to me that I should not have given the go ahead to cut and paste reviews as the administrators may see that as abuse. I deleted that cut and paste blurb, so you will have to type your own. Thank you.

Hello Bill Schott I Frederique that I had no place to copy and paste. So I typed in my thoughts.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-This is quite clever, Bill,
and I will certainly check
out what in the world
these poems are about,
even though you already told me,
and I can just whiz through them!
-Clever post and idea.

You are welcome. You'll have to follow up with how many poems were reviewed.
Comment from Suzanna Ray
Dear Bill, spring has sprung your bear sized sense of humor from his cage. I don't think you will be able to catch up with him yourself
I must make haste to follow your instructions and look up your book.
I really really regret that my iPad can not copy and paste.
It will be fun to see how many of your fans will employ your novel idea.

Thanks for reading them.
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Thank you for the update. I will look into the book. I believe I would delete the cut/paste review of your writing as the site may frown on that. I know you mean well, but one can never be sure about some things. Ok, I get it. It is fiction! You had me believing at first.
Respectfully, Jan

Okay. No one is using it anyway. Thanks.
Comment from lyenochka
I was wondering if you were joking so I went to your portfolio and Lo! There is a book called World! And reviewed the first chapter. Great idea to repackage your works that way. I wonder if I can do that same. Hmmm

It just occurred to me that these shorties might get viewed this way. I put the cut and paste review in to eliminate any doubt by some with cramped fingers.
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
I think the cut and paste facility used on Fanstory is often useless if you are really interested in poetry, but this is a fun post showcasing your sense of humour Bill, love Dolly x

My goal was two-fold, Dolly: To get someone to read these things and to give away some bucks.
