The action in this chapter keeps the story moving and the description of the imps such, that you see them in your mind. A blueberry attack most imaginative and I was curious to know what was in the can of spray...whatever it was it must have tasted good for Archie to be licking it.
I think this fantasy story most appealing...especially liked the description of the sprayed imp...'a struggling leaf and screeched like an UN-oiled hinge.' Cheers.

I will have to give you a virtual six on this one, Yvette. I am fresh out. This chapter is charming though. I like your word choices--contentious imps, the exercised Constantine, and all of the regal words that come out of Archie's mouth. The overall effect made me smile. And I like Archie licking the spray can. Clearly those contentious imps are not dead. They will show respect next time.

Is this going to be more work or less work for you?

We'll see, but at this point, looking like quite a bit up front... gonna do some 'reorganization of topics maybe in Hope's we'll be back together in a few weeks....? Dunno for sure yet... ugh.

I can't imagine preparing several months worth of online lessons. You do have your work cut out for you.

This was a fun chapter to read, YM. Those 'imps' are persistent for sure. Great job with the flow of action and the dialogue. Your use of descriptive words adds to the enjoyment for readers. I look forward to the next chapter. Thanks for sharing. Respectfully, Jan
