Holy mackerel that's quite an accomplishment to write fifty of these absolutely delightful stories. It's hard enough for me to write one story in only fifty words, let alone fifty and filled with puns too.

So, so very well done, Lisa. This is a book worth publishing in my opinion. :)

    Now that I've cranked out 50 of these stories, I have a fair idea of what appeals and what is less successful. Compiling a book is a definite future aim.

Ok, so here! I knew my favorite one would come up eventually and I would give it a six. I love this. It is witty, creative, intelligent and engaging! All your others are great too, but this is the total package. You effortlessly weave in humorous tricks with words, and it reads so easily! You made me give a six. Well done!

You really did a great job including the different species of fish as your adjectives and verbs. I enjoyed this one about the fishmonger... still smiling. :)

Very well done - nearly every word a play on words. Liked this one. Even the names work. Here you are at 50 - shall you go on? Might as well - there are many more occupations - and don't forget the guys marrying dancers, (maybe you did that one) or marrying women congressmen.

Very cleverly done and thank you for giving me the laugh I needed this morning. Always amazes me how well you write these and this one was no exception.

My nose twitched when I read this title, thinking of the smell. Well, girl, you did a terrific job with this one. I loved the words floundered and sharkastic - good work. The only problem is I'm feeling a little queasy, thinking of smelly fish. Hugs, Lou

Every one you write gets better and better. I love the use of the names of different fish in this particular story. "Dory's now in sole charge" broke me up.

What will I do for my daily giggle now that time appears to have been called on these. This one is a real blast to end with. You have cast your bread upon the waters and it seems that almost all the fish that ever there was came to perch on your float.

Thank you for so much fun.

I think you managed to break your own record for puns in this one. Can someone be married to a pundit, I wonder? Makes one ponder...or punder...on life with a fishmonger
