I can’t accept full credit for the word play seeded by one of those chain emails that arrived via the internet, author unknown. I merely turned the idea into writing advice disguised as a short story. Read and enjoy.
Room for Improvement
by Leigh (and Anonymous)
During a domestic discussion, my wife said, “I can describe you in six words.” She went on to say I’m mature, I’m moral, I’m modest, I’m proper, I’m polite, and I’m perfect! I love my wife, shes the greatest. “Anything else?” I asked. “You also have a fundamental misunderstanding of apostrophes.” |

ReplyDeleteWe should publish, Eve. Actually I have a vampire who needs work.
ReplyDeleteIt's sad when a vampire is unemployed; you never know where they're going to bite next.
