In response to "Who stole the treasure?"

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.

THE STORY

The pirates steal the loot and it's up to Webbie and StephBee to get the treasure back.

WHAT I LIKED

I liked the unique plot involving me and Webbie in saving the treasure.

POV NARRATION/TENSE

This is told in the 3rd person omniscient. Past tense was used appropriately.

DIALOGUE

The dialogue accents the narration.

OPENING PARAGRAPH

The opening paragraph does a good job setting up the dilemma - the treasure is stolen and it's up to Webbie and her faithful Bee to get it back.

CHARACTERS

The witch, the Bee and Jimmy take to the air and sea to find the treasure. They're brave and courageous.

In response to "Who stole the treasure?"

Thanks Wraithy WiԎchy of Woe! and SpookyBee (bravehearts both) - I hope Jimmy is a legit suspect, I've had him aid and abet you there!

Prompt is too long for my myopic eyes to plod though, so just picked a name I saw!

In response to "Who stole the treasure?"

You can remove the numbers.
Choose one or more suspects from the list. (Since SpookyBee and WW, aren't characters in the mystery scenario.)

You still have time to edit!
You may be the ONLY entry once brought up to rules' standard.

The Cop Shop Mystery MB is up for grabs!
You have 7 days left.

Anyone else reading this ... What are you waiting for? See some previous winners of Cop Shop stories highlighted in the ..."Comedy Newsletter (August 27, 2025)"

It's really not that difficult.

And, it's lots of fun! ...

In response to "Diamante -- Mountain"

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.

THE POEM

The poem talks about how a mountain can challenge us.

WHAT I LIKED

I liked the positive message of the mountain. Some people may think of mountains as hard to overcome, but if one buckles down and puts their mind to it, they overcome any mountain that's in their way.

STRUCTURE

This is a diamante poem. The rules involve having 7 seven lines, first and last line, just one word which is a noun, 2nd and 6th lines, 2 words which are adjectives, 3rd and 5th lines have 3 words which are verbs, 4th line has 4 words - nouns. Diamantes don't have to play hard by the rules, but they should take the shape of a diamond.

MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make it easier to read on WDC.

DESCRIPTIONS

The descriptive words blend in words you expect to find like "massive" and "unsurmountable," but also those words associated with emotional mountains like "anxiety" "resolve," and I really enjoyed how the poet made the subtle connection there with the physical and the emotional.

PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

The opening sets the stage for the poem. I enjoyed the emotional approach to the poem - it helped to make it personal. The poem followed the prompt and used one of the following words: mountain, beach, or forest. Good luck in the Bard's Hall Contest.

Day Three: A FORGOTTEN BIRTHDAY - Blog Relay,, Not judged

Day Three: A FORGOTTEN BIRTHDAY

Wrapping paper on the floor
Mailman with packages at the door
The room strewn with gifts galore
And children screaming, 'We want more!'

'A toy train is not enough!
The woolen sweater is too rough!
This jigsaw puzzle is just so tough!
Give us more, give us more stuff!'

'My friend got a mobile phone
With a customized ring tone
This baby stuff makes me groan
* Blah-blah-grumble-sob-moan *.'

Their mother didn't know what to do
It was partly her fault, she knew
She had taught them 'me', not 'you',
And now, she was in a stew.

Doting as she was, she had to admit
She was about to throw a fit.
Her children were brats, no sugar-coating it
This behavior, she could not permit.

Finally she shouted above the din
"NOW all of you, quiet - and LISTEN."
They gasped and were quiet, you could hear a pin
And their mother, her tale did spin.

She reminded them of what they forgot
It was not about the stuff you got.
It was about the birth of a tot
In a manger, without even a cot.

This birthday, she reminded them,
Of a sacred place called Bethlehem
Where, more precious than any gem
A baby gurgled to three wise men.

This baby came to revive humanity
To remind us of faith, hope and charity
Bringing peace to town, village and city
so to fight for 'more stuff' was a pity.

"Thank you, Mamma, for reminding us
That it isn't nice to make a fuss.
We'll be grateful now, you can trust
And just say MERRY CHRISTMAS!"
