    Hi Niki! Have read your first line - are you expanding this into a story?

    Hi Eliza

    No plans to continue this story, I’m afraid. I wrote it for the contest. Thank you for commenting. :)

    Hi Robert, long time no see. Thanx for catching the typo, I didn’t even notice. That doesn’t say much about my editing skills, ay?

    You do the writing, someone else will do the editing. :)
