Woooow
That was impressive! I am pretty positive I'm probably not... um ... incapable... No, um ... probably not talented enough to do this!
You had me laughing from the very beginning. It was great.
I cam to your portfolio to see if I might want to 'fan' you. You see the result. :)
Blessings, new friend and sister!

Thank you so much, Debora, for such a great review of my children's story featuring the letter "P" to promulgate a plethora of words for the pup-minded population. I'm so glad you enjoyed a good laugh! You picked a good story from which to sample my writing. God bless you too, my friend and sister in Christ, Mary Kay

Mary Kay, I am a volunteer for our local animal shelter's fundraising group. (blah!!!!!) anyhow, we're having an event on the 11th. May I print this out and share it with the kids Somehow, and God knows why, I've been selected to organize the children's area, even though I cannot be there for the full day. You'd get a byline, of course. :)
If not, it's not a thing. I just thought it might be fun for the kids. We ould have them try to write one, too, using their own choice of letter.
Blessings,
Deb

Yes, sometimes we get "drafted" for unusual jobs, don't we! Only God knows why.
Sure, Deb, you can print it out for the children. It's great that you want to use it to inspire them to write their own stories with a letter of their choice. You can let me know (here or in a direct message) how it goes, if it works out.
Love and blessings, Mary Kay xoxo
Comment from Versch
What a nice little story for children using the figure of speech, alliteration. Children will love reading the repetition of the initial letter p in the sentences. When I was a kid, I loved this kind of writing, too and still do. It's like a tongue twister. Excellent writing!

Comment from Poetic Friend
This was perfectly precious, Mary. I hope it did well in the contest. You made great usage of the letter "P" to tell a story about these pooches.
I love the names that you gave the pups.
I hope you and you family are doing well, Mary.
Be well, dear.

Thank you so much, Nan. I really appreciate your excellent, lovely review, especially the fact that you're the 26th review, and you may have nudged this story (finally!) into All Time Best status.
I'm glad you liked the names of the pups. There was another reviewer who thought they were too numerous, and confusing to follow. So your perspective was a welcome one, even though everyone is entitled to an opinion.
Thank you for your kind wishes. May God bless you and your loved ones, and keep you safe and well.
Love, Mary Kay xoxo

What a fun little piece! I guess this was for a contest as I don't recall ever getting a notice for this. Enjoyed your alliterative flash fiction and you chose such clever verbs to keep using the "p" words!!

Thank you for the surprise review, Helen! Yes, it was for a contest in April, but I know that I can't keep track of all the contests, or of all the posts from people I'm following, as much as I would like to. I'm so happy you enjoyed it.
Hugs, my friend!

Also, I'm especially delighted to get this review, which brings me to 25 reviews... one review closer to being Recognized! Thank you very much!
Comment from Sally Law
This is perfectly precious! I'm sorry I missed this. How adorable! The picture is just too much. You did a great job with this P. No pee pee though. Pink slippers certainly cry to be peed on. LOL! Thank you for telling me about this. Sending along we're very best and blessings always, Sally xoxo
PS~ How could this not win? Boggles my mind!!

Thank you so much for an awesome and hilarious review, dear Sally! "Pink slippers certainly cry to be peed on." That is just purely perfect! And it would have been, paradoxically, punctual! Or at least it would have punctuated my paragraphs with puddles of... oh, never mind, if I perchance were to publish it, I might have some prissy parents to consider... proper progeny never permit pups to pee on the premises. We wouldn't want them to ponder punishing such pups with a newsPaPer. Bah, HumPug! We treat our pups with resPect. Like the Pup WhisPerer. Thank you for the precious compliment and the fantastic review, my dear friend! I knew a doggy person like you would aPPreciate it! God bless you so much.
Love always, Mary Kay xoxo
Comment from Jasmine Girl
You did a great job using letter "P" and puppies had a lot of fun playing with the human slippers. Human came back and were happy to see they have had a fun time.
You did an excellent job.

Thank you so much, Lisa, for this fantastic review and for the six stars! It's the only six-star review that I have, so far. I really appreciate it. I'm so glad you enjoyed my puppy story with the "P" words and the flying slippers. God bless you. Love, Mary Kay xoxo

Practically perfect production pertaining to pooches. Okay, I can't compete. A very well written story with lots of character (s) and lots of fun. Thank you.

Comment from mobileliz
Delightful story. One could really believe the dogs were talking to each other. I found no typos and I liked the ending. I think the story would have felt incomplete without the humans returning.

Thank you, Mobile Liz, for your lovely review of my children's story. I really enjoyed your appreciative comments, especially about the content of my story. Yes, I did feel that since I referred to the humans at the beginning of the story, they had to appear at the end, to wrap up the conclusion in a satisfying way. The contest is over, so now I can sign this... God bless you.
Love, Mary Kay xoxo

Comment from write hand blue
A delightfully different canine story which mentioned several different types of dogs. It did seem striking to me that different types of fur on different dogs can only be imagined by poor humans (dogs don't give a shit). I also noticed that I was a little (slightly) distracted by the number of words starting in P. Perhaps there is a prize for the maximum number? Anyway good luck in the contest. . .

Thank you for your excellent review. You are absolutely and Positively right, the aPPearance of Phur only matters to People and not to Pets, as they Perceive it to be Pelt-deeP, although this, too, could Possibly be a comPlete anthroPomorPhization of this Phenomenon. They may certainly not ignore the Phurry Parts of their Phellow Pets comPletely, as their Perceptive noses do insPect their Phriends and Phoes for Pheromones and other OlPhactory Particulates.
There was no Prize for the amPlitude or Phrequency of "P" words, as evidenced by the aPParent fact that I did not win it. I will now sulk Privately for Phive minutes. (Only Phooling.)
I appreciate your reading and reviewing, and can now be myself and sign this with my usual and sincere, God bless you. - Mary Kay

Comment from Rdfrdmom2
This puppy and pooches story is particularly pleasing. Perhaps you would consider getting an artist and a publisher to purloin this into a book proposal. Little people would likely push each other out of the way in order to pick up their copy. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you, Rdfrdmom2, for your excellent and encouraging review of my children's story. I enjoyed your Persistently Produced "P" words, Piling up on toP of my Plethora of Parlance on the Part of the PuPs -- what a Pleasant sPectacle! Now that the contest is in the Past (and I'm not esPecially proud to Pronounce that I only came in fourth, which doesn't Place anywhere sPecial -- desPite that, it was great fun), I can sign my name and add my usual... God bless you!
Love, Mary Kay xoxo
