All Comments on 'Julie and the Old Coot'

Several strata above anything that I have read here in the last few days. My God, this guy even used spellcheck! As I read, I got the impression that this was a true story, and the author really was a beer bar performer. That's certainly a mark of a succesful piece of work.

The style of short paragraphs flows well in this internet forum. And the author played words back and forth, like resisted / insisted, words that could be repeated if this was transposed to verse. It some spots it did read like poetry, or a song from the 60s, it even reminded me of a B Dylan song where he must go on with his singing verses and ignore what's happening.

I only found one grammatical error, and that's a record for what I have read on Lit.

If I was grading this story in a creative writing class at university level - not high school, university level - I would give it an A.

*Well...I really was up on stage in the 60's, really did know Julie and Harold, that kinda helps.

But I don't own no spelchekker, them things can't spel atoll...*LOL..What's this about a gramma...granmer..mistake?

Thanks,
