Review of Anne Boleyn's Biography

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army

Rated: ASR | N/A (Review only item.)

Hi Princess Megan Snow Rose

I came across this story because it showed up on the right side column of the page, "Online Authors."

Initial Thoughts:

I find the life of Anne Boleyn to be fascinating! There have been a few movies or a series with Henry VIII. I know the production had some creative license to make it that much more sensational to capture the viewers' attention so they stick with the series. There was some conflicting scenes with his first wife Catherine. I felt bad for her, though.

Furthermore:

Anne did her darnedest to keep a hold of King Henry. But his deep need to have a son to continue his legacy turned him into a horrid person to the women he had pulled into his lair.

Parting Thoughts:

Your story here does provide information about Anne's background and fear of losing her place by Henry's side. I also felt bad for his first wife, the queen who could not produce a son for him.

The funny thing about it all is that his daughter with Anne actually became the Queen. She of course was Elizabeth I. Amazing twist of fate. With all Henry did, his daughter, not a son, took the crown. I liked that ending!

Conclusion:

Great story!

Until next time--Write on!

Review of Holidays

Hi JACE

YOU know why I'm here!

Jumping Right In:

Boy, there's certainly a huge list of days celebrated throughout the year! And true, I like the occasional Margarita! ...Or two!

This puzzle contains 25 names of different holidays some celebrated by some. Others by others. It depends on their particular faith or whether the day was important when growing up. There are many more holidays than when I was growing up. That's for sure!

Furthermore:

Holidays include the usual ones we enjoy: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Veterans --which is today, Independence, Memorial, Easter just to name several.

There are also added ones that really aren't a holiday for us, but more for a Groundhog? Poor thing--all that pressure trying to get us an earlier spring.

Earth Day? Nah, not into celebrating the third rock from the sun and all the climate change crap.

Parting Thoughts:

This was a fun puzzle. I'm happy to see Veterans Day on the list on the while I do this puzzle on the exact day we celebrate and thank our veterans for their service to the country.

You did a thorough job finding so many holidays to place on the list.

Conclusion:

Great job! Thank you for tagging me to this Word Search puzzle!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

WebWitch

Hi StephBee

Thank you for tagging me to this Word Search puzzle. You may have figured out I sort of like these things.

Setting The Table:

Love the video included with the puzzle! This is a Word Search celebrating the first Thanksgiving menu. And the turkey indeed was missing on the table back then. I have heard tell that there was indeed lobster and many bivalves native to the area. And chestnuts --yummy. Molasses of course. However, I believe the corn was called maize back then. It was a less modified corn than we have these days.

Feasting Right In:

This puzzle has 22 food items to uncover that were probably served at the first Thanksgiving. So many items that we New Englanders enjoy! Love the shellfish and the cod of course. I found the words simply delicious!

Dessert:

I love that Thanksgiving! It's great to see these Word Searches popping up on the site. Thanksgiving needs the respect it deserves here in the US. Seems like stores make a leap from Halloween into Black Friday. So, it's good to be able to enjoy Thanksgiving before the rush.

Conclusion:

Great puzzle! Great subject matter!

Happy Thanksgiving, Steph!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

WebWitch

Review of Angel Feathers

for entry "Cat in a Haunted Mirror"

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army

Rated: 18+

| (4.5)

Hello Amethyst Autumn Angel

I'm reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

Thank you for entering October's Cursed Mirror prompt!

Initial Thoughts:

The old Victorian house was inherited by a man who planned on refurbishing it and sell it for a good price tag since it was facing a lake. It was in bad shape and filthy. He hired a few guys to help clean it up.

One helper told him the mirror sucked in another worker. Of course the guy didn't believe it. Everything gets crazier from there!

Furthermore:

The owner soon finds out the mirror does have extraordinary powers when he finds he's been drawn into the glass of the mirror when his hand slipped into its creepy dimension.

The story takes an even weirder turn by that cursed mirror. The owner realizes he's no longer a human, but rather has been turned into a cat.

However, he's not the only cat in that supernatural environment. There are others. And they're being chased relentlessly by a robo-vac!

Hey, I always say humor can be infused in any genre.

Parting Thoughts:

It gets pretty paranormal as the couple living within that world are performing an experiment with the cats as subjects. The cats need to be fattened up in order for it to work. It was a little busy, but think I've got this straight.

There was a lot of material to sort through from the guy who couldn't wait to sell the place for over one Mil. The missing worker, life as a cat, robot vacuums on the chase.

Conclusion:

Very unique use of the prompt. It definitely has the eerie feeling as it should.

Good job!

Until next time--Write on! --Vacuum on!

Review of New Entry - Bard's Hall Contest - Oct

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army

Rated: E

| (4.5)

Hello Moe aka John

I am reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

. Thank you for entering our October contest Something Horror's Cursed Mirror prompt.

Initial Thoughts:

The title. I wish you had a title fitting the creepy story about to be read. Sometimes readers pass on generic titles like "New Entry" (place contest name here.) This is definitely a horror-supernatural story. Pull your readers in. from the start.

Further Thoughts:

Once the first paragraph is read, the reader is of course getting hooked and wants to read more.

Example: "My parents, now conveniently deceased, had filled this Victorian monstrosity with the detritus of lives lived predictably. I had no attachment to the place or to them."

Personally, I wanted this character to get a taste of karma biting back at that point. I don't know the reason she disrespected her parents. There was no blurb explaining why, which makes her unlikable in my mind since all cares about is getting as much money from the house and its contents. There's no remorse or guilt shown because of their deaths and her keeping away from them. That's what's missing. It makes the reader think Lisa is just a selfish woman with no described reason of why she despised her parents. Just a line or two could have explained that.

I hadn't set foot inside this mausoleum house since I was eighteen, when my mother/father hit me so hard I fell down the stairs. The abuse would end at that point. I left and never returned.

Additional Thoughts:

Now that I've gotten the above questions out of mind, I can move on to the story. Yes! This is creepy and frightening what the cursed mirror reflected and its grip on the person staring into it. It had wonderful descriptions that pull the reader into the reflection along with Lisa.

"The light in the glass, which had been bright, intensified into a searing white that burned the retina. I gasped, finally feeling a physical tearing sensation in my chest as I realized the reflection was no longer mimicking me. It was consuming the space where I stood." Total creepiness!

Observation:

I had hesitated when I got to this entry because your choice of font size is too small to read on electronic devices. I know I can do the two finger stretch, but it results in an awkward read doing that. I suggest you use larger font to not strain the eyes of your readers. And, I've had cataract surgery on both eyes and see perfectly well.Yet it was an uncomfortable read.

Parting Thoughts:

Great use of the prompt. You pulled the reader into a mirror and held her transfixed on the imagery. Awesome descriptions allowed for that.

You followed the rules. Word Count given and within parameters requested.

The story is in compliance with the prompt that contains a cursed mirror and its reflections.

Conclusion:

The story itself is fascinating that's why the 4.5 rating. The only issues it has are discussed above in this review. It could make a huge difference should you decide to do an edit.

Otherwise, great job! You sent the reader the creeps and the chills. That's horror I can love!

Good luck in the Contest!

Until next time--Write on!

WebWitch

Rated: 18+

| (4.0)

Hello Odessa Molinari

I am reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

Thank you for entering October's Something Horror, Cursed Mirror prompt.

Initial Thoughts:

The title "Others" made me think back to that creepy movie with Nicole Kidman. Her character with her 2 children, one of whom is "allergic" to sunlight, move into a countryside home during WWI. A ghostly story develops from there.

This story has a teenager who is tired of moving around due to her father's work. She's bored and explores the old Victorian house. She finds herself in the attic facing a mirror with disturbing reflections.

Furthermore:

The scene that develops before her eyes is frightening. She is compelled to respond in order to save the girl in the reflection from harm. The acrobatic scene into the mirror was a little brave, I'm sure. She didn't worry about her ability to return.

Parting Thoughts:

The story does capture the horror of the mirror's reflections. This story has great bones. I just wish it had more meat to devour. There was plenty of Word Count left to build up more creepiness around the mirror before the brave rescue scene.

Conclusion:

Creepy story with some brilliant action from a bored teenager who acted quickly to save another from harm.

Good use of the prompt!

Hello Joseph

I am reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

. Thank you for entering our October's Something Horror This Way Comes: A cursed mirror prompt.

Initial Thoughts:

"...that beating sound. Soft at first, then quicker, then harder until it beats in time with terror itself." Great way to hook the reader into a story that oozes horror from the very beats of a heart. I like the descriptive lines leading up to the discovery of the mirror.

Further Thoughts:

You did a wonderful job with the buildup to the horrors scene within the cursed mirror. I could almost feel the pull of its power. Making the mirror reflect different images as if falling into a warped dimension where the reflections move forward endlessly ... excellent imagery!

The horror Lyn was put through. Yet, she couldn't break free. She was compelled to lock herself to the mirror. Oh, my!

Her breath was sucked from her body! JR pulled her grasp from the mirror bringing her back to reality! Her breathing started up again.

Parting Thoughts:

Adding the Thump, thump sound repeatedly keeps the hold of the mirror on its victim throughout the story.

I loved the ending. Even though they left the house the mirror's reach could be felt: "Beneath the hush of night, when my heart should be my own…it beats with another’s rhythm."

I was mesmerized by this horror tale. I may not look in a mirror for a week!

Conclusion:

Creepy to the max!

Good job with the prompt!
Good luck in the contest!

Until next time--Creep on!

Review of Honoring WdC with Words

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

Rated: E

| (5.0)

Well lookie here! I found your very first Word Search puzzle! How cool is that?

Jumping Right In:

I see you've gotten quite good at these puzzles. You say this was only a ten word search and has been developed more over the years. You have come quite a way. Your puzzles have entertained me.

This puzzle consists of 25 words to uncover having to do with honoring WDC during birthday week 2023. You did this as one of the tasks in Modopoly hosted by iKïyå§ama. It involves community things we all know and love here. Games, Merit Badges, writing, challenge and gift points, of course!

Furthermore:

I'm amazed I haven't found this puzzle 'til tonight. I took a chance in scanning the Word Search pages in Browse by Type. It was right there up at the top. Lucky me. I was in the mood for another puzzle to solve after a busy Halloween evening last night.

Parting Thoughts:

My mind went back to the many years of birthday celebrations. This one was fun and pretty quick to solve. Thus, it is a relaxing puzzle to play.

Conclusion:

Good work!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

YAY! I finally made it here.

Jumping Right In:

A word Search Video based on the lyrics of Whatever It Takes. Plus a video accompanying it above the puzzle to keep folks entertained while solving the puzzle.

Playing On:

The words woven within this song are very strong. They invoke many emotions: Vulturous, Breakdown, Martyrdom, End Of Time ---to name a few choice words that describe the lowest form of emotions pertaining to dying, disease letting go, complete destruction. So many meanings!

Playing Out:

This puzzle has 25 words pulled from these Imagine Dragon lyrics. I listened whil I was working on the puzzle. I just love entertainment while I sweat over the tile!

Parting Thoughts:

As usual, your Word Search puzzles reflect your deep admiration for lyrics and music and also ID. They are an amazing group for sure.

I had a good time solving and listening to their song. Thank you for including the video.

Conclusion:

Great job!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

Hi Cottontail Entertainment

A little batty told me there was a Halloween Word Search Puzzle I haven't played yet. So here I am!

The Night Of The Fright:

I love all things Halloween. The children in their costumes walking nervously toward the door as the fog machine blasts a spritz of that smokey substance.

This puzzle has some well-chosen words having to do with Halloween. There's the expected ghosts and ghouls and a witch, too!

Observation:

A couple typos in the spelling of: "WEARWOLF" [Werewolf]. Also, "BROOMSRICK" [Broomstick].

No worries this is a quick fix, so I'm not rating down. I am also guilty of a slippery finger that hits a neighboring letter than the correct one.

Furthermore:

This puzzle has 22 words to uncover. I found the uncovering went along smoothly. Which makes it a very relaxing puzzle for a busy brain. I like the additions of BOGEYMAN, and BROOMStICK. The Bogeyman is often forgotten in these Halloween puzzles. And let's face it...a witch always has her broomstick!

Parting Thoughts:

It's a wonderful time of the year with the upcoming Halloween day and all the fun it brings. I give out full size candy bars, too. It does make my well-decorated house a favorite stop of the night.

Conclusion:

I really enjoyed your Word Search puzzle!

Spooktacular job!

Thank you for answering the cry for another Word Search puzzle!

You know I love them. They are also a great stress reliever. Why? Because they are relaxing and fun.

Imagining In:

I know how you love ID lyrics and weave them into these puzzles. I bet the lyrics are playing in your mind as you choose the words to put on the puzzle.

Beautiful words of hope such as: Angels, honest, promise, meditation. These show the softer side of vocabulary uses.

Also, there are the words of need. Alone, broken, despair, faceless. Represents those in society who are struggling with life each day.

Imagining On:

This puzzle has 25 words plucked from the lyrics of ID's Eyes Closed. I moved along smoothly as I uncovered each word. I could feel the emotion packed into them.

Parting Thoughts:

Thank you for always coming up with interesting Word Search puzzles having to do with music. I know you love the lyrics in many of your favorite groups. Yes, vocabulary rocks our senses!

Conclusion:

Great job!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

Hi Princess Megan Snow Rose

Thank you so much for creating this awesome Halloween Word Search!

Spooking Right In:

Oh, my! You've got some great pickings for all things Halloween! I love that you have threaded-in some Dark Shadows and Stephen King. The Shining is a great movie to watch during Spooktober.

Spooking On:

This puzzle has 25 words/titles/names to uncover on the tile. Edgar Allan Poe and his Raven are there. Also, Hocus Pokus, Carrie, Mummy... horror flicks so popular amongst we horror lovers!

There are the usual frights for Halloween decor, skeleton and black cats. A wicked witch, too!

But, I loved that Angelique and Barnabas are included in the puzzle. As you know, I am also a Dark Shadows fan.

Parting Thoughts:

This was such a fun and festive Word Search puzzle that enhances this time of year as we countdown to Halloween!

I enjoyed uncovering each and every word on the tile. I also pictured the movies presented in my mind. It is indeed the season of the creeps and witches too!

Conclusion:

Great job! Thank you so much for tagging me to this link. You know I love it!

Hi AmyJo-Where did 2025 go???

Thank you so much for creating this Word Search puzzle of Horrors, and tagging me!!!

Creeping In:

Oh, yes! This puzzle is the epitome of Spooktober Horrors! Everything leading up to Halloween is so festive and lots of fun. There are a multitude of horror movies to watch. There are Jack-O-Lanterns to carve, and kids to scare!

Okay, okay, I'm not into scaring young children. But, those older ones? ...

Creeping On:

This WS puzzle has 25 words/phrases to uncover on the tile having to do with scary stuff. Things like: Headless Horseman, Quivering Mass, Squeaking Door, to name a few really good ones!

Parting Thoughts:

I must admit, I let out a short, evil laugh whilst working on this puzzle. I didn't really, but it sounded good!

It's just another mystery of the puzzle to solve.

You did a fabulous job of gathering words for this season of everything horror/scary. I worked through it at a steady pace. I look forward to Halloween and seeing all the kiddies in their costumes. It's a wonderful time of autumn!

Conclusion:

Job well done!

Hi StephBee

Thank you for creating this perfect for the season Word Search puzzle!

Spooking Right In:

A quick look at the list showed me some familiar Halloween Handles displayed all over the site. Yes, it is the time of the year for all things spooky, creepy and crawly.

I love the giphy used above the puzzle. It sets the mood handily.

Spooking More:

This puzzle consists of 21 words to uncover all having to do with Samhain. One related handle jumps out at me..."Kiyasamhain." The one where Samhain is in the handle. I also see nosferette, jeffolantern. gruesome and spudyspecter, giant phantom jelly, to name several on-site Halloween Handles making this time of year super festive.

Observation:

I noticed you have the Intro set on "Non-E." I see nothing in the title or brief description to place it in that setting. So, if you want more peeps to see it and play it, I suggest moving it to "E."

Parting Thoughts:

I really enjoyed spotting all the spooky words, fabulous handles and seasonal fun on the list of this Word Search puzzle where the macabre and the boogyman, boogy on down!

I moved along at a good rate exposing all those names and words. It's fun and relaxing, too. More fun for me, but good for you!

Conclusion:

Great job! Thanks again for tagging me to this link. You know I love these things!

Review of OneRepublic Song Titles

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army

Rated: E

| (5.0)

I've finally called my whistling witches back home!

Jumping Right In:

This Word Search puzzle is from One Republic song titles. They are taken from a wide time span of deep cuts and singles. So we are informed in the brief description. I have taken a listen to a bit of these. I'm not a follower of them being introduced to them by you during Blog Month at The Bard's Hall.

Furthermore:

It's taken me forever, it seems, to get this puzzle done! It's just that I've had to start this over a few times due to Windows Update crap, restarting and emptying out the progress I've made!

This time, I thought I'd sort of sneak up on it. You know, whistle at it as I saw it waiting in my open tabs. Peek into the tab further to see if those answers I had already completed would magically appear. Yeah, that didn't happen!

I promised myself I'd get this puzzle done and the review sent out before another unfortunate missing tab event happened.

Parting Thoughts:

This puzzle contains 25 titles to uncover. I can't say it was a super fast completion, as I had a few I chased around the tile for awhile. Thankfully, the longer titles popped out faster for the most part.

All-in, all ... I felt joy when I saw the tile turn green!

Conclusion:

Good job keeping me busy as this clung to my open tabs since September 27th!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

Hi 🐺Wolfkingdom🏰

I found this Word Search puzzle in "Browse By Type." This one goes way back to March, so somehow I missed it back then.

Driving Right In:

This is a puzzle about random automobile models. It's a full puzzle containing 25 names of different types of cars. I even found my Ruby's type which is an XC90. That old girl is twenty years old, now.

Furthermore:

I was able to get through the puzzle at a good clip. It was those models with numbers that help a bit. Numbers tend to jump right out at the player: F150, F250, F350 and of course my Volvo model, XC90.

Parting Thoughts:

It was fun finding different car models. A Silverado, (I had a Suburban when my kids were little.) Blazer, my husband's vehicle way back when. I guess I'm just a SUV girl at heart.

Conclusion:

A fun and fast puzzle to play. It relaxes a busy brain and brings images of cars of days gone by since my Ruby is the car I love and want to keep.

Good job!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

Hello ♫~ Kenword~♫

I came across this folder while perusing writings on WDC.

First Impression:

I notice someone slammed a one-star rating on this, so decided to see if it was a folder filled with one-star poetry or stories that is part of such a contest that appears every so often on the site. I have been in those contests, myself.

However, once I stepped into the folder and saw the stories highlighted in here, I thought it was either a huge mistake with the rating, or done out of disregard of your strong faith.

Furthermore:

As I perused the titles, I could feel such faith and love of family and stories revolving around one's family.

I look forward to taking more time to read the folder's offerings. The stories based on their titles look quite uplifting. Boy, we can all use some of that these days.

Parting Thoughts:

I believe your folder is quite beautiful, and contains such stories within it. I dislike seeing a 1-star rating on it. Therefore, I am giving this folder a 5-star rating. I know it won't bring the rating up to where it should by just one attempt to higher ratings.

However, I'm hoping others see this review and check out your folder and judge it for themselves. I would also love seeing more faith-loving people continue to raise the rating to where it really should be.

Conclusion:

Beautiful folder of faith and Christian values!

Excellent work!

Hi Hibernatin' tato🌲

Thank you for creating this Halloween Word Search Puzzle!

Jumping Right In:

First of all, I love your description of the origination of Halloween. It's a very tight and informative history of its beginnings and how it has developed to what it is in the modern day. Yes, indeed Samhain!

Furthermore:

This puzzle is so much fun. Especially during the season of all things spooky!

There are 19 words to uncover all having to do with Halloween. From Jack-o-lantern to turnip.

Black Cat to scare... images form in my mind. Of course there's your usual witch and skeleton not to mention spirits. It's all in fun. And, kids love the season, as well!

Parting Thoughts:

I have been placing my decorations out since September. A little at a time to catch the children's eyes as the school bus passes by each day. It awakes their excitement of the evening they get to wear costumes ans trick or treat for candy.

I thought of those things as I worked to solve the puzzle. It was a fast and fun solve. Plus, Halloween does relax me!

Conclusion:

Good job!

Until next time--Haunt on!

Hi StephBee

Oh, this thrills me so! Spooky movie titles for me to sink my brain into!

Boo-ing Right In:

Great Giffy above the puzzle! It sets the mood.

I like the movies you highlighted which I've watched over the years. Some classics. Some more modern. Some of my favorites that I enjoy watching at this time of year: The Shining, Halloween, A quiet Place, The Mummy, Scream ...and so on and so forth!

Furthermore:

There are 18 movie titles to uncover. I enjoyed doing so as I could picture scenes from the movies as I moved along. It was fun and quick to solve. I could say relaxing, but who could say that with the subject matter being uncovered?

Observation:

Typo/easy fix...
"Sleepy Hallow" I believe you meant the movie "Sleepy Hollow," not the rapper Sleepy Hallow.

But I could be mistaken.

Parting Thoughts:

There are many more horror genre films to be included should you decide to do a sequel to this Word Search puzzle. Of course you must tag me when you do.

I really enjoyed this puzzle. It's the perfect time of year for it.

Conclusion:

Spooktacular job!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

WebWitch

Review of Tornado Ghost

Review by WebWiԎch is Th...

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army

Rated: 13+ | N/A (Review only item.)

Hello ♥HOOves♥

I noticed this story in your portfolio as I was moseying around.

First Impression:

Your title caught my eye. Wow, "Tornado Ghost!" What's not to attract my attention here.

It sounds so mysterious and scary. I just had to read about it.

Furthermore:

When I found that this is Non-Fiction, I was immersed in this story. I know it is a contest prompt about the "spirit of a loved one paying a visit." But knowing this really happened to your aunt and to you when she she showed you the figure that looked like your Dad right after the tornado passed, it sent chills down my spine!

I, like you, believe our loved ones send us little messages. We know it's them because we feel a certain calm at the time. I always talk to my mother, especially when I need her help doing something she was very good at. I feel she is guiding me along and feel quite content and feel the love. I really can understand how you felt.

Your aunts sound like they were lovely ladies and well loved by you. They were close to your Dad. You could feel his presence when around them. My aunt was my last aunt. She was my mother's baby sister. I was very close to her. I miss that I can't talk to her anymore on the phone. It ends that generational line and close connection to my Mom.

Observation:

Easy fix typo:
"Trees were twisted in two and car ports where [were] blown aside."

Parting Thoughts:

I could feel the spiritual pull of this story. It had to be so frightening for your aunt when that tornado hit between hers and her neighbor's house. That is too close for comfort. I've been in areas where tornadoes hit. Luckily, no severe damage.

Conclusion:

Thank you for sharing this personal story about your father's spirit catching your eyes after such a frightening event. I know you must still feel his spirit as I do my mother's. It's a beautiful thing to experience. I do believe in angels and messages from loved ones.

Until next time--Believe on!

WebWitch

Review of Imagine Dragons Song Titles

Yay! I'm finally here. I have been sidetracked lately playing catch-up.

Let's Jump Right In:

Yes, I think someone who loves music the way you do has found a great subject matter. Titles of songs is right up your alley!

This Word Search puzzle contains 25 titles to songs from the group Imagine Dragons. They happen to be a couple of my kids' favorites. They attend whenever there in their area in California.

Furthermore:

I've also enjoyed some of their music, as well. There is life after "Radioactive" which most of us have probably heard while shopping. It seems it is played on a loop. It continues until Christmas music begins.

The overplay of songs can get irritating. However, Children Of The Sky, Mouth Of The River, Smoke And Mirrors just to name a few. Good music!

Parting Thoughts:

Not a quick and easy puzzle, but a good steady play. I found trouble and love in all the wrong places.

Well, actually, I found them in the right places for it got solved.

Conclusion:

You did a great job weaving these song titles onto the tile. I got to hear music in my head while solving it.

Kudos!

Until next time--Puzzle on!

WebWitch

Hi THANKFUL SONALI Party Hopping!

My Overall Thoughts:

Sonali, this is hilarious! I so enjoyed the amusing set up here and making heroes out of Steph and me.

Furthermore:

Rules were loosely followed.

But then, you do magic to make us look away from the Sonali behind the curtain.

What I am happy to see:

You got rid of the numbers. Good job getting that done.

Parting Thoughts:

Okay, it wasn't exactly what we set up as far as suspect list and clues to peruse and solve from there. But, it was a bloody good try! And super funny. It deserves attention.

Conclusion:

The funniest how not to entry we've ever had during our Annual Cop Shop Mystery! And who's Jimmy?

It doesn't matter! It's a well written attempt to solve the mystery with some magical help.

Until next time--Plot on!

WebWitch

Hello Amethyst Autumn Angel

I am reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

. Thank you for entering our September Cop Shop Mystery!

Opening Thoughts:

Your job according to rules is to choose from the suspects presented, along with motives to find out who done it! There's even a parrot, Bingo, who probably should be given a "citizen's" award for his help in solving the case.

Further Thoughts:

You set up a good scenario to solve the mystery. For your key suspects, you choose Brimley Stone, head maintenance man who dresses like a pirate, and even has a peg-leg prostheses.

Polly-Wanda Kracka, theater actress and evidently, sword aficionado.

She's also a talented parrot trainer!

Screaming Nell, Polly's sister as an accomplice. She knew when to pull the screaming act to get everyone running toward her direction while the treasure was being stolen.

Parting Thoughts:

Officials announce the treasure is a fake so the perps, Brimley and Polly, will attempt to get rid of the "hot stash." Which they di, in a dumpster behind the theater.

They were caught, fake treasure which is the real treasure is secured. Founder's day went on blissfully!

Conclusion:

You followed all the rules and ultimately solved the case in exactly 25 sentences.

Case closed!

Great job with the prompt!

Until next time--write on!

WebWitch

I am reviewing your entry as a judge at "The Bard's Hall Contest"

. Thank you for entering our Cop Shop Mystery contest in September!

Opening Thoughts:

The prompt and rules require you to solve the mystery in exactly 25 sentences based on the clues given and list of suspects. You have lots of wiggle room in this prompt as far as using the characters. I think you did a fabulous job with Bingo the parrot!

Furthermore:

You made it a fun read. I love the whole The Fugitive ski boat scenario. I could picture the madness in my mind! You chose Brimley Stone from the suspect list as the ski boat pilot. You answered the question of why he was involved. He was paid of course! Still, the treasure is missing!

Parting Thoughts:

We learn that Officers Harry and Sally are the thieves of the pirate's treasure and are nowhere to be found. The distraction of Brimley gave they enough time to make their escape.

I imagine when Harry met Sally, they had a torrid attraction that overwhelms to the point of thievery! May they have a happy honeymoon in Montenegro!

Conclusion:

Great job with the prompt!!!

Until next time--Write on!

WebWitch

Hello DB Cooper

I came across this item on the WDC Hub. It caught my attention because I've had two hip replacements.

Overall Thoughts:

I can feel your pain, really. But it was much worse for you since you broke your hip. How painful a fall that must have been! I merely wore my hips out from activities throughout my younger years. You, know, weight lifting, softball sliding into base, having five children,... stuff like that.

Furthermore:

You give a good description of how it feels to be unable to walk without help. The boredom of being stuck in a hospital. The adjusting to life with a walker. So much lack of freedom. You hit the biggest issue of all of it!

Observations:

Being stuck all day at home will make [me] psychotic.

Parting Thoughts:

I wonder did they do a hip replacement right away after the break? I know one thing, the replacement helped me and the ongoing pain of trying to walk with worn out, bone-on-bone hips. I imagine it takes so much longer to heal after a broken hip happens. That's adding trauma to them before surgery happens.

Conclusion:

I hope you are recovering well and swiftly. You will get your independence back and feel so much better walking on your own.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Until next time--Walk on!

WebWitch
