Greetings, Josh Bolling! I discovered this piece the Newbies Work List page. I also noticed you are brand new to WDC, beginning five days ago! Welcome! I hope you are enjoying the site! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. *Smile*

*Quill* First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest.

What I Liked

         *Bullet* I liked that you kept my interest in this Twilight Zone-type tale!
         *Bullet* What great images you produced in my mind, such as a tiny spider nestled in the hairs within Mrs. Sutphin's ear.
         *Bullet* The main character--the doctor who likes his gin and tonics--thinks of his weekly rounds in the Atlantic Coast Care Facility as inspecting the walking dead!
         *Bullet* Another great visual that shows the too-excited doctor's anxiety over spotting the tiny brown spider once again... My breaths are short and a bead of sweat trails down my back underneath my button-up. I switch the otoscope's light on and peer into the void of her ear. Excellent image! *Smile*
         *Bullet* And then there's the ending! *Shock2* Oh. My. Goodness. *Laugh* I believe the doctor went off his rocker! The perfect ending, of course. *Wink*


Suggestions to Consider

         *Bullet* My only suggestion is irrelevant to the rating and review of this piece. *Smile*
Most members double-space between paragraphs because it makes it a little easier to read on a computer screen, especially for the sake of reviewing. *Wink* I did appreciate the larger print and the indented paragraphs! *Bigsmile*

Final Thoughts

         A great and entertaining piece of writing! It might, however, make me think twice next time my doctor takes a peek into my own ear. *Laugh* Though mine isn't hairy... at least I don't think it is. *Shock2*


Have a great day and...*Quill*
