All things and technology do not necessarily always work and your flash fiction indicates that I wish you the very best with your writing. Have a good day and God bless.

    Thank you Pat. I really appreciate the review. The think I like about it is if I'm not sleeping, I can ask it to pley soothing music without having to get up.

Thank you for sharing this cute contest entry with us. During COVID and the kids were being home taught, I gave a spelling test over ZOOM and a child asked Alexa how to spell the word. I just gave up that day. LOL Good luck with the contest.

    Thank you Barbara. She helps me go back to sleep at night if I'm awake and tossing turning. She plays spa music or soft elevator music.

Lol how funny!! I don't possess an Alexa and have no intentions of buying one. I enjoyed reading your short piece of flash fiction with its unexpected ending. Good luck.

    Thank you Wendy. I enjoy my Alexa. Because I can have any kind of music any time I want by just talking. She'll answer any question without having to go look something up but she does get aggrivating at times.

Excellent little revelation about our technological age. I refuse to have one but I did here that the genius tv writer, Charlie Brooker, got rid of his when his eight year old son kept calling his mum Alexa.

    LOL This is funny about the kid called his mom Alexa. I appreciate the review and comments. I was shocked to know she was promoting my book.

LOL, Beth, very well done. Yep, I know Alexa well, and I have for years. She spells anything over a four-letter word for me. This is id very clever. I will take a look a the book she recommended. Terry.

    Thank you Terry. I appreciate the comments. She helps put me back to sleep at night when I'm tossing turning. I tell her to play soothing music and she does.

LOL!! That is so funny, but so very true! I'm often being told, 'I don't know that one' when I wasn't even talking to it. It listens in to my conversation!! No that is spooky! Congrats of your published book again! It's a great achievement. Warmest hugs, my friend. :)) Sandra xx

    Than you Sandra. It is a little scary. My conversation with my myself would probably make me sound deranged. But I do yell at Alexa some times. I really appreciate the six stars.

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are. It's like that old Joke. A woman is telling her musician boyfriend: "Don't you know how much I love you?"
He says, "No, but if you hum a few bars I can pick it up!" Have a good week. Karen

If I had a dollar for every time Alexa said to me, "Sorry, I don't know that one," I would be rich! I usually then ask Google on my phone, and always get an answer. Google is smarter than Alexa, lol!

This was a clever story (since most can relate), and a great plug for your new book:-) Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you Pam. I was afraid everyone wouldn't get what happened but apparently everyone did. I guess a lot of people use this.

This is a great entry in this contest, and an original theme, it is truly a one off, and somehow I doubt we'll see its likes again, brilliantly done, and you got in some advertising, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

    Thank you Roy. I was telling someone about what she said and it dawned on me that it only took about 80 word to tell so, I decided to make it an entry.

Oh, we could have such fun with poor Alexa! Once, when watching a sports panel show in Australia, one of the panellists said something witty and his Apple watch started speaking to him in the middle of the show. Rather unexpected and very funny!

    All the AI type devices are funny now, but as they get more sophisticated we might not be laughing at them quite as much.

    Too true. As a teacher, Chat GPT scares me.
