I think this is a great idea for your contest. I love writing from prompts because it challenges my to use my imagination. I almost always write true stories, unless they are for a contest. I am looking forward to submitting my entry as soon as you are ready.

That is a really great image. I like it better than most I've seen. I get dizzy when the item is busy. My mind can only take so much. I have been in therapy for 35 years, approximately and feel like seeing the shrink is the sameold-sameold. But I guess I need to talk to him and catch him up on my life. Then he writes my 'scrips, and off I go to face the world armed and ready.
I didn't mean to write a novel here. I get long winded sometimes.

Your story about Napoleon's invasion of Russia was exciting for me to read. I was looking forward to what would happen next. You painted a great picture of what it must have been like to the men; trying to funtion in the blustering snow and bone chilling cold.
I am also glad to know that I don't have to capitalized god. That will help me in future writings.
Keep on Writing,
Lesley Scott
Thanks for making history real.

I believe tis informative artcle was written with me in mind. I remember some of the rules of grammar from school. I was an English Major in college, but that was 40 years ago. I think English is the hardest lanuage to learn. We have so many rules that sometimes seem to contradict themselfs too much. Learning Spanish, which I never mastered, is easier, and so is math. It is alway one thing is right and nothing else.
I learned a lot from your item, and jotted down some points I don't want to forget.
Thanks, again,

The story, "Cellmates," was a very good story. It is simple to read the words, but the story means something more. At least I got more out of it, this being my first story as a Non-Human Member. I learned that a lupine non-Human, is not such a hideous, detestable beast. When the was returned to her daddy, I was happy.
Keep it up!

This contest is one that will never run out of things for us too write about. We see such happiness in so many things because we are poets and writers. We always see what others miss. That is why we write, to let everyone know about the world around them. I am driven to write, because it just pops out, but I want someone else to know what I feel.
I am pleased with being in "A Happy Place!"

Lesley,

This Story, The Vampire and the boy," was touching the way Beth, a born, not made vampire, was kind to a lost child. She didn't want any of the made vampires to get ahold of the innocent child. After he finished a hearty meal, Beth decided Child Services would be a safe place for the boy.

On of her friends, a vampire and other non-humans watched over the boy while Beth accompanied her friend to take care of some drug dealers.

Great story! Very original. I look forward to reading more.

This Childrens' story, "If wishes were fisherd, Robby was down by Potocopaug fishing with his father. I wonder if Robbie's fishing trips were no few and hard between. When Robbie met the stange old man, I knew somthing majical or tragedty would follow.

The majic led Robbie, in his sleep, down by the river. This time the old man fightened him, saying,, " You gotta be careful what you want for when you wish." That touches me, personally, I ran a horse and mule farm and kept milk goats and ate rabbit. I alway would tell people, "Don't say, 'if wishes were horses,' it may come true."

This story, "The Dream," is an excellent story. The characters were real, as was the dialoge. I sometimes do wonder if we can dream about something that comes true? I haven't had a good dream in most of my adult life. I call them "Dilema Dreams," because I'm always trying to fix a problem. I liked Carrie's dream so much better. This is a great story!

I have never been involved with this type of auction. We always drove our trucks to Walterboro for the Horse Auction. That was our way of having fun on a saturday night. We even witnessed a shooting! I miss the old days, but I'm a city girl now and I have been so tickled to be part of this Pampering with Power Auction. It is one of the best activities I've been involved with that I can recall.

I can't wait to see what is in store for me! Maybe one day I'll be the one who does the pampering!
Love,
Lesley

I was amazed with the membership following you have on your site. I didn't read it all because I have my chores waiting. I honestly think "Non-Humans" is a wonderful concept. You sure do have a lot of friends and members who are into fantasy and horror, if I may guess. I spent up most of my points on some auctions and raffles. I hope I win!
You are doing a great job. Keep up the good work. I may be able to put together my own Non-Human. I'm good with reptiles!

Your story seemed so real to me. Did it happen sometime? Who wrote it, Or did you sit down and write? The first part was really creepy, yet the end was even more creepy. Some folks have a short fuse about certain things.
At least now you can do some really creepy haunting!

Y'all certainly have plenty of sponsors. I don't want to look cheap. How do I send you my points? I've been saving them up and some silly idea of using the points I have gathered to pay my tuition in June. But, for some reason (they never gave me a specific reason) I've been busted back from Preferred Author to Upgraded. I don't know what I can do. I keep getting blocked from certain people and certain links. I hope we won't have any trouble here. I promise to try not to piss anyone off.

This item about nightmares helped me figure out why I have always had them. I haven't had a pleasant dream in quite a number of years. I stay stressed out, whatching crime dramas and reading books about true crime. I just wish, for once, I would have a good dream. I'm sick of the nightmares

This poem, written in a mythologial format is such a good fanticy. "Chaos must be hunted --- To stay by her side. The human race be saves." is one of my favorite quotes and you have so many! That they would become murderers of each other is a good name for the last paragraph.

Hi there.
I think a raffle is a great idea for us to have. I can't afford to give as much as I would like to, but I will be giving more as time goes by and we have more raffles. Since I belong to Power Reviers, do I give y'all the credit? I have a raid starting tomorrow. I don't want to miss that. They are counting on me. I do a lot of reviews whenever I can.

I am looking forward to being part of your group. It's about time!

Your poem, "Daily Exstence" can apply to all of us. We all go through the same motions when we first awaken. "That out childhood imagination manage to keep; lingering inside our skull-like form Are just caracature of the figments that our childhood manage to keep." That is so true of us all!

Your article about Happiness really touched me in a certain way. It is so true and people are growing up to be more depressed than thay were when we had litte food and I pods. The children today still grow depressed. Look at the suicide rate of school children over the past year for example. We sure didn't even think about harming ourselves when we were growing up.
Keep on Writing, this is a good piece of work.

Your piece, "Stairs of Success" was interesting. You said it is from your own experience. Did you practice the three steps and land the job? I agree with the application of your three steps, but wish you had written more so we could understand, like an example. Overall, I liked your item.

"Manic II" is another of your most interesting poems. This one, also, strikes me as being schizophrenic in nature. I'm sure you aren't schizo, but how do you come up with this poetry? Do you read a lot, or is it something from movies? I do find both poems intriguing.

"Manic" is an appropriate name for your interesting poem. I can't write poetry, but love to read what poets do with their time. Does it take a long time, or does it pop out? This poem, while certainly manic, leans more towards schizophrenia. I am Bipolar, or Manic/Depressive and my manic phases are full of the highs of my mind and what I can accomplish. Or sometimes, I simply move, do, and talk fast and happily.
This is a cool poem. I can only speculate how it started.

Your story about "The Power of Prayer," was touching and made me feel good to know that He cares. I know people in Prayer Groups and all help and pray for each other and everyone. Their prayer has even touched me a time or two. So the Power of Prayer is strong and growing.

Keep up the good work!

Your article, , about writing reviews helped me out a lot. I discovered that some of my reviews were pretty good. I still have a hard time finding advice for a writer. I don't seem to pick up many errors or stories I don't like. I find the reviews for my writing are valluable tools if I do recieve advice and errors noticed. I feel like your artilce was written for me.

Your story about sharing customs, such as an American Birthday Party is a good story. I love the way you said you finally carried your cake for Mama. "Yet again, I saw how different life here could be," summed it all up. I recommend this story for everyone. I will read it to my husband, too.

I don't play poker well but I need a King, too. We all do, I think. With Easter creeping up on us, I think knowing the King is the best hand of everyone's life. I don't know if your story was literal or not, but I see everything as meaning something.
