Mom Likes Me Best

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is so amusing and so well written without a wasted word. It is also a great dialogue only. This should be published in a parenting magazine. There is some great competition in this dialogue only contest. Best of luck.

Thank you. I'm kind of hootless. That means I don't give a hoot if I win the contest or not. I just write for fun. Hugs.

Winning is like a pat on the back. Gives you more confidence.

An informative story. Figures of speech don't always convey meaning well.
The dialogue is believable. This cameo reflects real life accurately. The flow is good. The imagery is clear. The language fits the child discussion format. The ending sounds all too familiar.
Thanks for a good read.

Thank you for sharing this delightful dialogue between a brother and sister. I like the line: "It's one of the things Mom taught me; to use logic to make my point." This little guy sure found lots of ways to use logic. Very well written.

That is priceless! And so typical. A terrific entry in the dialogue contest, (and that is coming from one who is in it, too :)
I think some of the best humor is when a skillful writer incorporates things kids say when they don't know they're being funny.
Good job.

Thank you. Yes, I read your entry and it is very good. I'm kind of hootless. I don't give a hoot if I win or not. I write for the fun of it. Hugs.

hootless. great word.
I write for the fun of it, too, but it's nice to have extra points to raise your writing up a few notches. Mine never get very high.
I forgot this was not a blind entry, :)

Yeah, I can see this being a winning entry. In my mind I can see the secret voter going, "Awe." You tapped into the sweetness factor. Well done.
notes:
She said I was going to get IT when Dad got home. I don't know what IT is, do you?["]
