Wendy and Wayne's Wacky Wedding
Was a wacky situation all over the place56 total reviews
Comment from karenina
When writing with whimsical wit, who would worry words would wildly wage war? Wrecked with warped worry? We were writhing!
(Okay, way to write that "W" poem because I just tried to answer in kind and I'm duped after twenty words)
Safe to say that anyone on FS last night got to see your poem over...and over....and over!
I KNOW you are distressed, but rest assured we all know it wasn't the poem or you that caused the glitch or whatever made the site go off-kilter!
You put a lot of thought into this PLUS it's "wicked" clever!
Sorry circumstances caused it to not be entered in the contest...
So glad you posted it Debi!
Glad whatever caused the "glitch" was something Tom was able to take care of overnight.
Virtual six...and a pat on the back for surviving this stress!

Hey my dear K, you are so very sweet. I thank you so much for this awesome review for my W poem. It was fun to do but still can't believe the chaos that it caused. I also appreciate your fun comments.
Thank you again, my dear friend.

"It" didn't cause the chaos for goodness sake! Although I must say, I'd have been just as freaked out if it were MY poem posted everywhere! You did nothing wrong! It's all better now... SMILE!
Comment from Sally Law
How in Wayne and Wendy's World did you do this? My goodness, what a talent! I certainly couldn't have done this. My best compliments to you, dear friend! I'm sorry you had such trouble with this. I hope Tom was able to make it worthwhile. :))
Sending you my best today as always,
Love, BBB XOs

Comment from Pam (respa)
I am sorry this happened to you, Debi. No wonder the site was down for mechanical issues. I can't even imagine how you felt when you saw what happened. How did you end up noticing it?
It would be nice if Tom offered you a little extra in member dollars to make up for the mistake.
I really like your poem, and you did a good job maintaining the alliteration all the way through and also tell a good story. My favorite part is when "Wendy whacked wasted Wayne with warped wrench." That made me chuckle!! Cute artwork and nice presentation, too.
A very nice closing for the story. You win in my book!!!!

You are very welcome, Debi. I was reminded by a reliable source that something similar to this happened years ago. I hope you are doing okay, and are not worried about it. It wasn't your fault.
Comment from jmdg1954
Well I'm so confused. I've seen this poem posted by a number of writers and got the life of me could not figure out why. As I sit here drinking a soda, I'm still in the dark! But then as my wife wound attest, that's not unusual for me (to be in the dark and dumbfounded).
Oh well what can I say ...
Cheers...
John

I don't know, Debi. Sounds like your dubious plan to take over the world. Lol. A poem with power. This was fun. Sorry you didn't get the blind entry but it's a still a fabulous poem. Great alliteration. Gretchen

Hahaha! Gretchen, thank you for a most well needed laugh. I was so worried that I was going to have to watch my friends posts get lost. I was so relieved and cried when I heard it was going to be ok. Even if it wasn't my fault, it happened with my post in place of everyone's. So the contest was the last thing on my mind. My friends are more important than anything.
And you are so very sweet. I thank you so much for this awesome review for my W poem. It was fun to do but still can't believe the chaos that it caused.
Once again I love and appreciate your fun comments.
Thank you again, my dear friend.
Comment from Douglas Goff
Totally not your fault, Debi. Not only did I see it on all my peces, but people , peope reviewed it as one of my fantasy chapters..
I laughed hard, until it dawned on me that I might have lost my works. Geez glad they worked it all out and sorry you got outed in the contest. On a good note, it got read by hundreds making it easily the most read piece on Fanstory this year.
Don' t sweat the small stuff.

Comment from Spitfire
Impressive that you could weave a story with every word starting with 'w'. Seems as if the groom had a serious drinking problem. But hitting him with a warped wench! Maybe the two should reconsider marriage! A fun read.

Comment from RainbewLatte
This is probably an incorrect use of a 6 star rating but I'm giving 6 stars to pay my respects. (I don't know how else to). But before I say anything about this poem, I was totally awake having posted two pieces of my own. Upon waking up, it appears they have been deleted? Anyhow, I reposted them so that's not a problem. But although I don't think I have the skill or imagination to write such a story, it almost inspires a horror one. "Website takeover ahhhhh."
I almost thought someone took over the website just to tell me about a Wedding. Everything was titled the same thing, even my own work and every WORK was the same thing written by just about every author/poet/writer on FanStory.
BUT
That's where it got magical. The fonts were different. The images were different and half the time the text ran off the page or overlapped.
Idk.
So when I saw this just now on the poems listing I was like...wow! This is a REAL thing! That's amazing!
......now who wrote it........hmph.
Anyways. Onto the poetry. (and cute image btw). haunting smiles haha.
Okay. I probably would've given this 6 stars regardless and I'm sad that I couldn't say good luck. But! It is in fact skillful and I don't know what I expected but every single word in this alliteration poem starts with a "w." Now I don't know if that was a requirement but that's just insane to me.
I'm also surprised that I was able to verbally read it aloud and didn't find myself tripping over the words. The pink really POPS!
And amazing usage of descriptive words.
There's something descriptive in every turn and corner.
Amazing!
Well, it's been a fun ride and experience. Thank you for taking the time to share. And I'm glad I was able to enjoy this moment in FanStory history the way it was meant to be experienced. I guess? Because it sure was wacky. If anything, best of luck with ALL your future writings and I'm glad everything got figured out.
PEACE.

Rainbewe, you are so very sweet. I thank you so much for this kind review and comments for my W poem. It was fun to do but still can't believe the chaos that it caused. I appreciate your very kind comments and your gracious six stars.
Thank you again, my dear friend.
Comment from LateBloomer
Hi Debi, this is deserving of a Sixer. Sorry, I'm all out. Your poem reads and flows well and has fantastic alliteration and imagery within.
Of special note:
Wendy wasn't wanting wretched whisky where wondrous wedding was
We watched when Wendy whacked wasted Wayne with warped wrench
(Wendy is not alone; many other brides have done the same thing.)
Also:
Wendy woke with wisdom when weighted with Wayne's welfare
Was worthwhile when we witnessed Wayne with Wendy, warmly worshipping
(Ut oh, this sounds like the happily-ever-after ending, or is it the beginning of pattern...fight, makeup, and fight again???)
Well done. Great writing. This was no easy feat. Sorry about whatever computer glitches happened last night. Xo. M

Comment from Terry Broxson
LOL, if I had any sixes left, I would have given all of them to you if for no other reason than what you went through last night with the "Great FanStory Glitch." In addition, I must say this is also an extremely creative poem that must have taken a lot of work to do. Sadly, you will not be able to enter into the contest. So, for creativity, perseverance, and patience, I vote...EXCEPTIONAL. Terry.
