Thank you for a very funny piece. It had me laughing out loud!
Keep writing, please.
Cheers,

This story was hilarious. Pure satire. You must have hit most of the principles of bad writing in here somewhere. The funniest part is that I could swear that I saw this story somewhere else on the site written seriously. Thanks for the laughs. CCM
I loved it! Of course, I thought Mr. King lived in Maine, so he might not even get this story. And even if he did, he would probably be afraid to return comment in case Mary decided to seek revenge if she ever managed to get out of prison.

I can't understand what happened. It seemed like a match made in heaven.

I commend you for putting your mind to work in the situation your in at something you ARE GOOD AT! Never give up, keep that pen or pencil in your hand, keep your mind always creating and GOD WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY!
RP, I know your gone now, but maybe your wife reads your stories on Literotica. You were one of the very best writers, and I always loved your stories, even though at that time, I never added comments.
I am writing this as though you are still with us, and through your stories you are. You wrote to me after I submitted a story, my first and last, and you were polite, and encouraged me. We all miss your humor and writing ability. I absolutely fell over laughing at the last couple of lines in this story.
I'll have to go with Mark Twain on this: The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
I'll also fess up to my research. It seems the original quote was: The report of my death was exaggerated. Twain, however, was a writer and constantly editing to improve even his quips. That resulted in the quote above which, I think, shows how effective even small edits can be.
Seriously, though, I hadn't heard I died. Is there any attribution to this report?
But your impeccable punctuation gave it away. When you're good, it isn't easy to be astonishingly bad.
You covered many of my favorite bugaboos: the floating POV, the mindless repetition of words, the endless details about the least important things while the critical aspects of the story remain forever in doubt...
A very juicy satire.
I almost fell out of my chair laughing so hard. I actually didn't think this story was that bad, but then I taught 6th grade writing. Great job!
they dont pick winners by default. Ask John RIP, TK U MLJ LV NV
I am sorry to here that u'd menaged to survive uor demise too pubic acklaim.
Better luck next thyme.
anonymouse fanfare
firmly planted in cheek, no doubt. However, that doesn't lessen the utter boredom it generates. This CAN'T be the same person who wrote Revenge of the Nerd. One barely justifiable star.
I gave this 5 stars, mainly because that stupid anony "written with tongue" gave it only a sanctimonious 1 star.
Good write though. Looking forward to more from this author.
It starts out as a sappy love story. Then two totally introverted nerdy individuals go completely out of character. He screws his secretary and she blows him away. Just goes to show that anyone will do anything if the circumstances are there. A 5 Star Rating.
