Fantastic work, my friend.

About the same time as your story, I was living in East Chicago, Indiana. Near Halloween there was a parade, and all the kids wanted to be in it. I had a play guitar, and my mom slicked my black hair back and drew some sideburns on me. My black leather jacket topped it off. As we walked, I was chosen for a talent contest at the local movie theater — like yours. A bunch of us lined up, a guy put his hand over our heads and people clapped. I won first place as Elvis — a little wiggle put me over. I won $10 too, so I figure I was the first paid Elvis impersonator ever! Ha! My mom kept half.

Oh, good write, as usual. I know I took up a lot of space, but that’s cheap online, huh?

Ha! I can just see little FlatDaddy Elvis with his hair slicked back. Thanks for reading.

Thank you. Hair was an important part of life for a lot of us.

I like this. The wizbit made me remember Mork and Mindy.

I enjoyed this science fiction story

Phenomenally penned, Sam. Great write, fantastic imagery my friend. Welcome to Stars Rite. Appreciate you.

Fantastic, Samuel.

Thanks, Thomas.

Well, I would say you have outdone yourself, Sam — but obviously, you haven’t. A good bit of fun, though. Worthy of a series? Only 14,089 more chapters and you’d have a book, one that would fit in one of those tiny saucers. Keep up the good work, Sam.

Thanks. I’m working on chapter II right now–Dogbik confronts a gas pump and says “take me to your leader”

What a charming little story. I didn’t know how it was going to end up going about halfway through but alls well that ends well.

A heart-warming story, Sam. Your characters always have personality that is lovable in some way…even a cat. 🙂

Ah, the sweet, gentle world of an innocent young girl (I’ve one posted simply, “Girl”).

Sam,
You never fail to touch your readers’ hearts, minds, ‘n souls in bringing to life your characters’ personalities (even a cat’s), and in how they each fit so perfectly into your stories’ always interesting plots … and, your grammar is exemplary.

This is a most lovely piece, and I love the surprise ending.
I hope you like it here, Sam … the site needs your “special” touch! ⁓ Richard🖌

Thank you, Richard.

Thank you. Yeah, scary stuff for Halloween.
