New Year, New Start [E] Conversation between an old married couple. |
Bon jour, Autumn Moon! This isn't bad for one of your 1st pieces on here, and doing it almost entirely in dialogue was good. A little challenging, but you succeeded for the most part. I think we'd all like to go back and try to get back what was 'taken' from us when we were younger, so I can relate to poor John. Mary sees a little desperate to find support, but if she really wants to be a writer, then she should just do it whether she has anybody's support or not! That's my take on it, anyway. I like that ending, too. C'mon, Mary! He'll support you if just give (me) him a Hog! Great spelling and grammar, but I did spot a few missing commas: "What is(,) Mary?" (without the comma you're asking what Mary is, and I think we know she's a person, right? ) "Is that what your gonna try to do now(,) Mary?" "I'm tired of working(,) John!" "What(,) a pig and a dog?" By the way, I almost went into 'crunching numbers' myself. I guess it's good money, but I'm glad I didn't. Kee ponw ritin gon, my friend, and welcome to WdC! If you like to write, then you're going to love it here! PS-You might want to get your biography set up so we can know a little something more about you (hobbies, favorite authors/books, location, etc.), but that's up to you, of course. PPS-Since you’re new here, perhaps you’d like to check out "Noticing Newbies" to get a feel of Writing.Com and introduce yourself to the community!
PPPS-If you want more exposure for your items you can put them on the Please Review Page or The Plug Page under Community on the left hand side.
