My ex-husband was a chimney sweep. I think he'd enjoy this story. I'll have to share it with him the next time I see him.

I'm glad you finally found a way to get rid of that "dead" (lol) raccoon.

Keep up the good work, continue writing, and stay off that roof!

I found no typos or misspelled words in this piece. It's written quite well. You certainly have a powerful message within the contents of this piece.

As I read it, my thoughts branched out in several directions. One thing I thought of was how it helps to reach out and help others when we're feeling lonely and blue.

Keep up the good work.

I enjoyed these stories as much as the first time I read them. I found no typos or misspelled words in these chapters.

You held my interest from the beginning to the end.

This is very touching. I'm so glad you had the love and attention that you needed with your foster mother.

It's sad that you had to leave right after turning 16. As I read this, I couldn't help but wonder where you went and how you survived.

I found no typos or misspelled words in this piece.

Keep up the good work.

I enjoyed reading this story. However, you do have quite a few typos. Rather than list them at the present, I thought you might want to go back and read it slowly and aloud. That seems to help me catch booboos I'd catch no other way.

If you'd like for me to edit for you, let me know and I'll do it through email.

I have some white friends who adopted a black baby. When we see them in public, we can see the love between baby and parents. I think it's a wonderful thing your family has done.

Keep up the good work in writing and in helping others.

Review of Darkness  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Wow! I'm surprised that in a piece this large I didn't find more errors.

It’s horrible the way they died

You certainly know how to grab and hold the reader's attention. I was glued to this computer. The curiosity at first, then the suspense grew with each paragraph.

As I was reading, I wondered how it could possibly end. Actually, I like the way you ended this piece.

Keep up the good work.

Oh my! This is a tear jerker. My heart went out to this couple. I could feel the love in it. It's amazing how a promise made so long ago can keep a person going.

This reminds me of one of my customers when I worked at the grocery store many years ago. He took car of his wife this way. He eventually had to put her in the nursing home. He would come in the store and if we asked how he was, he would break down and cry. But we all knew he had done all he could for her.

Keep up the good work.

Review of Annie  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (4.5)
Now I like this. I really enjoyed reading it. I like the way you seem to think Annie would have liked different things you mentioned in the poem.

As I read this piece, I kept wondering who Annie is, then there it was. You told down in the poem.

Again, I really like this piece.
Keep up the good work.

Review of Halfway  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (4.5)
This is a beautiful poem with a wonderful meaning. I think most of us have turned away (maybe without realizing what we were doing at the time). Isn't it wonderful that He welcomes us back with open arms? He leaves the 90 and 9 and goes out and brings the 1 (stray) back in to the fold.

I think this might look better if you capitalized the beginning of each line.

Keep up the good work.

I certainly hope you plan to have at least one follow-up story with this. I'd like to see Amy call on the wee little man for help of some sort. This just sounded like it would have a continuation.

I noticed in your description (under your title) that you have an error. staring should be starring

Fred ran off going right through the center of a thick est<--need to delete the space between thick and est

She came to s top same as above

Keep up the good work.

You've written a great little children story. It caught my eye right away because Teddy Bears are my favorite. I can remember my first. His name was Tippy.

You have just a few booboos you might want to correct.

Tim shed a tear not<--did you mean to say that? couldn't be seen

Crystal was a very pretty burrunette

Keep writing.

Review of The dragon fight  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (4.5)


This would be much easier on the eyes if you would doublespace between the paragraphs.

This is a nice little children's story. I think all children enjoy stories about dragons, princesses and knights.

I found quite a few errors you might want to correct to make it more effective.

nothing too fancy

Each knight that came to her asking for her hand<-need a space here-->in marriage must face a test.

Many went to defeat the dragon,

Each evening she would fgo and spend time with the dragon

Gosh! This is so precious. What a great thing to write for your granddaughter. I love the story plot. I found no mistakes at all. You held my interest from the beginning to the end.

I know Taeden's parents are proud of this piece.

Keep up the good work.

Review of GET THE PICTURE?  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
This seems to be well written. I'd say you did a great job with these six little word-pictures. You've given description quite well. As I finished reading the description of each one, not only did I have an idea of the personal appearance, but also of each one's personality and characteristics.

Keep up the good work.

Review of Coffee and Korea  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (4.5)
Very well written. I sure hope I never have to go to Korea. I love my coffee too much to live where they don't have good coffee.

Oh, and Starbucks! It's the greatest. I like going to our Malls and getting this while shopping (or should I say window shopping; a large cup of coffe is just about all I can afford most of the time).

Keep writing.

This is written well with no typos or misspelled words. I don't know if it's fiction or real, but it sounds like the beginning of life to me.

Of course, for Christians, death is the beginning of life.

Keep up the good work and continue to write.

This is a beautiful poem about Heaven. You've done a great job with this piece. I found no typos or misspelled words and the poem reads smoothly.

You've given a good description of what you think Heaven is like. I looked back over it to see if there was a verse I liked better than the rest. It's all good.

Keep writing.

I found no errors in this story. As I read it, it brought back a lot of different memories for me.

I remember my grandma telling us kids stories; some funny, some scary.

When my first grandchild came along, I began telling stories to him at bedtime. Then by the time I had 5 grandchildren, I started writing stories using them as the characters.

Today, I sat down with 6 yr. old Noah and read some stories his cousins had written for me a while back.

Oops! I'm sorry. I seem to have gotten carried away. *Blush*

Needless to say, I enjoyed this piece.

Review of Free Me...  
Review by grandmapenny

This is absolutely beautiful. I found no typos or misspelled words and don't know what you could do to improve it. It sounds to me like it was inspired.

Actually it is a prayer that I think we could all afford to pray.

Keep up the good work and continue writing.

Review of You Did What?  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (5.0)
I know if I get technical, this piece probably isn't "perfect", but I enjoyed it so much, I can't resist. The only thing you could have done to make it better as far as I'm concerned would be to write more.

I've always seemed to be an accident waiting for somewhere to happen and this was right down my alley. I'd love to read more.

What age was she?

Wow! You did a great job with this. I only found a couple errors. You certainly know how to hold the reader's interest.

"Well, sir, I'll just take you through my day."

They hoped they would work to "lower the ceiling." They'd heard was too high.

Review of Home  
Review by grandmapenny
Rated: E | (4.5)
I have found the apartment living to be quite comforting. The neighbors are all in the same building. There is never a dull moment.

However, where I live, there's not privacy because of the neighbors being so close. If someone isn't ringing my door bell, someone is ringing my phone. Sometimes both.

I still love it, though.
