Yeah, yeah. Not all Fanstorians are blessed to be retired and sit reviewing 22/7. Now what happened to your top dollar?
Lol. You said your piece well. But here you need to be dedicated and take the good with the bad. luv jada

I agree and believe me, I've done my share of two-centers. Thanks!
Comment from Paddywack
Loved it! Honest, true and funny! Is it just me, or are others staggered by some of the reviews of pretty average fare? I'm put off reviewing some work that's already been given five and six stars, because everybody can't be wrong - it must be me, I'm obviously missing something!
Well worth reading for 42 cents.

I think many on the site are here for companionship and could not care less about spag. Others either tear their hair out over spag or learn to adapt. I really try to hear what the person is saying and respond accordingly. Thanks for reading and commenting.
Comment from Sueellen11
Sadly this is true there re many in it for the funny money,,, I in turn will review all the works that come my way and most are for two cents,, I never have the funny money to get my work promoted hence I can't get review as I have been told by many they don't review if not promoted. It hard for new comments to get a head,, great write well done blessings sueellen

I was on the site for 3-4 months before I picked up on how the system works. It has it's crass side but Tom has to make a few real dollars himself.
I suggest you take a break from the two centers for a bit and go for the gold for a while. Then publish your stuff with enough coin to make it worth the while of reviewers. Understand, many can only make due in this manner as they cannot afford to pay real money. And it's hard work to review a bunch of works as you must try to give an honest appraisal of the writing.
And then some seem to always be writing and never reviewing to earn enough to put some money on their own works. Thanks for writing this and I hope you do well on FS. Dennis
Comment from Dawn Munro
Hahahaha - I KNOW it's not always true, since you have reviewed for me, and I rarely can afford more than a treasure chest certificate!
This is adorable! Very nicely done satire. :)

You're right, I've done my share of two centers and enjoyed many of them. I do get a bit annoyed with those who write all the time and never put any goodies with their work. I think you are always a good read but I don't always comment for various reasons. Anyway, thanks for reading my junk and commenting! Dennis
Comment from Glasstruth
LOL. That's the problem with this site. It's all about the money. Still, I get some great reviews that help correct my writing. Wish it was based on quality. I admit I go for the ratings too. It's addictive. Write on! Les

Hi Les, thanks for reading and commenting. Whatever faults FS has we have to say it works for most. I saw in the news that atheists are forming "churches" in England and it's so popular there that they want to expand to America. Guess what their first move is? They plan to raise thousands of dollars to fund the expansion. So I guess they won't be able to honestly say anymore that churches are all about the money. My point is that unless Tom was making a buck there would be no FS. Sorry to go on ... thaNKS AGAIN, dENNIS
Comment from emrpoems
nice one and you got it off your chess. I too don't like very long poems but sometimes you take a glance and because it is interesting you keep on reading.
Got a six star rating for being short and sweet and funny

Comment from rama devi
It's a good tongue in cheek satire and I think a lot of fanstorians will either giggle at it and nod their heads or maybe go run and hide in a corner in shame. *wink*
Good bouncy beat and rhyming.
The flow is good but in this line, I felt like one more syllable would give it smoother flow:
So could you, at least, write something funny?
Maybe try:
So could you, please, at least write something funny?
I like the consonance of F between FS mess and confess. Clever!
Warmly, rd

Don't worry about it. Everyone does it from time to time. I appreciate your humorous candor and will be sure to let you know the next time I post some haiku.

Comment from MissMerri
Hahahahaha. Well, truth is always a beautiful thing. But I wish you could have put at least a dollar on this. You know you'd get a lot more reviews, don't you? I enjoyed the humor, the fine rhymes and excellent meter. It was fun to read for sure. Well done.
