| (4.5)| Hallo Beholden  ! I will be reviewing your work "Snowman" for "Game of Thrones"  Content: For the SCREAMS! contest, this is a short story written for the image prompt of a snowman in the most unusual of locations; a summer-type setting - or at least non-wintery. Pluses:Well, my goodness, how did one expect this to end, eh? Should have added portable air-conditioner or ice box along with the itinerary. Ah, I'd forgotten how you're able to take the most ordinary objects and bring them to life with your writing. Your imagination is admirable and this story is a testament to that. The idea of snowmen deciding to go 'South' for a vacation sounds ridiculous enough, but you manage to give each of them personalities that make them 'human' and relatable despite what they truly are. I could clearly picture these rotund beings - in their various shapes and forms - gathered around discussing this very serious matter. And poor Fred Kuhlman; brave enough to take one for the team in finding out just how great 'Nawlins (aka New Orleans) would be as the ideal vacation spot. There was one particular section that had me laughing though: >> The idea of reversing this migration clearly shocked them at first but, as Fred warned that they should be more open-minded in their approach to new suggestions, they warmed to the notion. (Hah! I see what you did there.  ! Good one!)Another clever section was where poor Fred's unable to speak because of the coals falling off his mouth. Such attention to details is what makes your stories a delight to read. Rest in Peace, Fred K. A tip of the hat to you for daring to go where no snowman has gone before.     Thanks for the fun read, and keep on writing!
