I gave you your own table and top billing on my u page.
Lost at sea, huh? You never gave Elmira's name in the first part of the story, so I had a little fun with the idea that Eldridge was 2 timing her with his soggy lost love.smiley - winkeye


Bravo!!!

Thanks, Ex-Rambling. smiley - blush

I've added quite a bit more just now. smiley - winkeye
You'll love the artistic toads that
"handpaint" dinnerware. (Heck, some real
dinnerware looks as if toads were responsible
smiley - erm).


Bravo!!!

Bravo, Percival! smiley - biggrin

I hope you're to expand on the mutant toads theme.
They've got to be smarter than most of the human
characters in this story! smiley - winkeye


Bravo!!!

Paul is right on this one, Percy. smiley - winkeye

Maybe you could have Elmira and Eldridge
on their honeymoon on an ocean cruise.
They see what they *think* is another
friendly whale, but it turns out to be
a giant mutant toad that eats them up.

smiley - laugh

That would be so smiley - cool.


Bravo!!!

We'll have to ask Nancy to read it sometime,
then. smiley - smiley

The final chapter, where all the loose ends
get tied up (no pun intended), is finished,
so you can at least find out how the lovers
are reunited for their moment of ecstacy.
There's a missing chapter, but I hope it
will turn up some day. smiley - winkeye


Bravo!!!

smiley - ghostsmiley - yikes No Chapter six?? And, the Mutant Toads turn out to be an Uncle in disguise??? And, a fade to black just before the steamy Love scene????
Actually clever, and funsmiley - biggrin. Besides, the steamy love scene would probably have fogged up my p.c. monitor, anyway.smiley - winkeye

So, we leave Elmira and what's his name making babies, and Babbette having already made one. What's the sequel gonna be called, "Son of
The Great American Novel?
Will Harry ever find true love?
And, how, exactly, do you "brew" a pot of Vanilla Coke?
I loved this, Paul. You ought to submit it to
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A294833 h2g2 fiction central

(And, there's no "Classic" in that address)smiley - tongueout


Bravo!!!

I loved it too, Ex-Rambling. smiley - smiley

I'll have to bring your comments to
Percival's attention. smiley - winkeye

Harry and Alonso *did* find true love--with
each other. smiley - smiley This is not as strange as
Uncle Haronymus's love for toads (what does
he do with them, anyway, once they've
finished hand-painting his dinnerware? smiley - bigeyes?)

Ah, and finally there's the heath, wild and
untamed, and a good place for the toads to
escape from Uncle Hyroniemus in.


Bravo!!!

smiley - wow

Glad you liked it, Ex-Rambling and Paul
and Vulpix. smiley - ok

Pretty soon I can join the ranks of Jackie
Collins and Danielle Steel and Nicholas Sparks.
All that remains is a little polishing,
and finding that missing chapter. smiley - flustered

I can hardly wait to start my next magnum opus. smiley - wow
