Classic! I shan't be able to look at a crucifix again without being tempted to doff my cap and say "Good morning, Herbert."
This one would have to stand a good chance in the contest.

Yes, I can see this as I read it. Your story line is good and your lines read well. Moms are great at instant comebacks. I like the image your paired with your story. It all works together. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Saramac
I'd like to know what the H stands for! Please enlighten me, I've heard the term before, but never understood it.
What a great funny little scene, and only a couple of things I'd like to mention.
I can imagine a shrill voice and a grating voice, but not sure I can do both at the same time. If they're similar, I think one or the other would have done the job.
Also, I loved the "without missing a beat", but I think maybe a full stop after Herbert, and start a new sentence for the rest of it.
But - that's just my nit picking, I really enjoyed it.
Good luck in the contest.

Hi Earl,
LOL - Good one! Herbert... Very nicely written. Great image you've incorporated into your contest entry. The kid looks absolutely miserable. LOL
Nothing here for e to suggest you consider improving upon. Best of luck to you in the contest! Jan :-)

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That was such fun, and written with just 75 words. It's a great way to learn how to tighten a story, and still have a brilliant story. I thought the part where she said, 'Herbert... that was classic. Well done and good luck in the contest. Can't think of a thing I'd change. :)) Sandra xx

I think you did a great job at this short story. The characters were easy to experience, as was their situation. Hopefully he will learn how to do the dishes now!

What a great story. You made it interesting from the first beginning, and read well, and it has action too. You will do great in the contest. It really is hard to write something substantial in 75 words but you did well. The best luck!

You certainly did do a credible job as "Herbert" gave me a chuckle. Your illustration was prefect and set the stage for your seventy five word story. Nicely done.

This was great Earl, good luck in the contest. It was entertaining, amusing and really cute. I liked the cartoon comments under the picture. That simple question instigated so many thoughts and answers. Well done.
