All Comments on 'Johnson, Johnson & Lambert'

Keep up the good work. I really enjoy this series, and look forward to each new installment. Coming from a different part of the world it gives quite an insight into aspects of life in the US southern states

Thanks for sharing.

Good story, but way too many characters. It's tiring to remember them all

Simply too many characters. It's really annoying after some time. That's unfortunate, otherwise it's a good read.

After a while the story simply becomes confusing. Back and forth with different persons, it's true what other commentators said: It's tiring

Life doesn't take place in a fish bowl. There are lots of things going on around us all the time. Fun read. Some nice characters, some not so nice.

One comment, Lawyer Parker didn't get his, but, then that is life too!

Keep up the good work. I am a yankee, some of your dialogue is hard to keep track of but it is fun to try. Sounds like Louisiana is an interesting place with interesting people.

An interesting story with a feel good ending. A few minor things that made it a little more confusing than necessary (mainly reuse of similar names) but there are a lot worse stories out there. Overall I liked it and gave it 4*.

JB4, I gotta say, my first impression of this story was a feeling of confusion. But once I realized how this flood of character development and believable dialogue show some real stylistic talent on your part.

Left me laughing all the way to the spank bank.

Your stories just keep getting better. You do a remarkable job of keeping the characters straight. Another five.

best part of the story?

the disclaimers.

This world you've created is unreal to me. How you tie all these character's together, the dialogue, the humor, the realism...you are my favorite author on this site. Please don't ever stop.

Been reading your stories for a while, well, most of them anyway and you have a very interesting style. Insightful, humorous, and downright funny at times as you reveal what make average people tick. I enjoy reading the disclaimer after the end of more recent stories because it means you at least read my complaints until I stopped bitching about it. Oh, and I hate shaved pussy, crime against nature.

I really enjoyed the story. I read for entertainment and I liked the way you told this tale. Thank you for sharing it

jimbob i love this story. i also loved the one with the vicker twins and leanne dumas. they make me forget for a little what is going on in my life. If you can could you do more with leanne dumas and the twins.

Interesting writing style. Took me a while to 'get it'. But, very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing.

I disagree with all of your disclaimers except the first one. I like your stories and think you have a fantastic viewpoint. Your writing is good and has the potential to be great. However, your decision to hold off on getting an editor is holding you back.

Yes I pitched a bitch at the ending of the the The Broussard Sisters, but that was just about the ending not your writing, but your writing really is good. The only complaint I have about your writing is just differentiate when you switch between scenes like that. Like others have said. It can be so tiring.

Hey JimBob, had to tell you I loved it. Read all your work and this is the funniest, couldn't stop laughing. Great story, not just this one but all of them. Thank you

No need to say anymore.

I just love your coonass stories. I got cousins down there and their just as crazy as your stories. Semper Fi!

And not just for grammar. The structure is all over the place. 3* keep writing.

That's my only complaint. I like when you add an epilogue.

The story doesn't really talk about why Stephanie would have sex with her friends fiancee especially when she was a virgin? Doesn't really fit her character based on the rest of the story.

Great story with lots of laughs, keep it up

I enjoy all your stories, but especially this one. I think it's because you have some really nice, caring characters in here, along with the usual ratpack of selfish, clueless losers.

And you're funny, a rare and wonderful quality on Lit.

Thanks so much!

ohio

JB, since you write these stories for your own enjoyment, shouldn't you do the ratings as well? Lazy ass author-man. Well, if I gotta do it for you, I guess I better just do it. 5 stars. I enjoyed it too! JPR

A lot of characters, yes, but so many of them end up with a loving mate that it's worth my while to follow all their different threads.

Thanks for this one! I enjoy a feel-good story!

Fun, fresh and actually romantic!

Thanks!

I have been reading all your stories for a week or so now and I got to say I am loving everyone, lol some times I feel I live in that town, well done and thankyou

Not being able to spell Aston-Martin probably means it's time for you to turn in your man-card

either JimBo is getting better or I'm actually understanding the way y'all talk.

Either way, this is quite entertaining - good one.

Totally enjoyed your story, you, dear sir, can write!

I know you allow all commentary but I say this if he can write a story for you and you complain about it don't read it sheesh people take time out of their days to give you reading material. 5 BIG STARS AND ADDED TO THE FAVORITES.

Just a warm, funny, magic story, huge cast, much interweaving of lives and stories and a complete joy to read. Thank you so much, it makes up for a hell of a lot of dross on here.

You nailed it! We are lucky to have JB44 telling us all these weird and wonderful tales.

Never to log. Never enough caracteres and you mix it up perfectly. Thank you

Haven't laughed that much on a LIT story in years. I must vigorously disagree with your first disclaimer - you do not need an editor and it's a good thing you don't want one. Editing would have ruined this story. The jumping around, sometimes withing one sentence, contributed to the excitement and comedy of the story. Thanks for sharing a truly unique story.

Your stories (the ones I call the 'Baylor Lake saga') are a really good representation of real people in real situations. There's no over-the-top bull, no SEALS riding in to save the day. Just real folks. I'm not from Louisiana, not anywhere close; but the highest praise I can give you is that it feels like these are my family & my neighbors. It feels that true-to-life.

Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

Still a great read. My only thing I'd comment on is I'd love to read them all in chronological order. Keep up the good work.

I have enjoyed the JimBob stories I've read already--so I'm taking my time and working through the ones I haven't read yet. This one is one of my favorites: full of heart and warmth, and full of humor (at times it's incredibly funny). Except for the jerks, who are hilariously evil, the characters are all people I'd love to have as friends, neighbors or family members. (And I just wish that people were actually this funny in real life.)

Thanks so much to JB for his wonderful stories--and how happy I am that I have still have dozens left to read!

ohio

I disagree with most of your statements at the end of the story.

Yes, it's too long. Yes, it's not long enough. Yes, it jumps around too much.

Yes, there's too many people to keep track of. Yes, it's in the wrong category.

Yes, this is stupid shit and... Yes I suck.

I thought everything was just about right. It was a fun read. 5*

Why do you have to talk yourself down like that at the end?

with around 3000 followers and averaging 4.xx ratings on your lit account, you obviously are doing something right.

The ONLY suggestion I have, is not even Story/Writing style-related.

The formatting in general. When you have that many characters, its easier to read if when you change persons to write it as paragraphs, (bunched together, instead of that weird spacing you doing after every sentence or two) then when you change persons/perspective -space

then readers know "ok change of persons/perspective".

Though your stories are funny and in general fun to read. They're at times not easy to read (first page threw me completely off, didn't know what was going on. jumping around in pov's is okay if you format it correctly. one second you were writing about bobby and val the next without -space u were writing about stephanie and in the middle of a sentence all of a sudden -space for one word. -space kept talking about stephanie no-space then back to val etc. ) with that mentioned "weird spacing" you doing and formatting.

5 stars for the story in general. the content was fun to read, how not so much.

The characters in most of your stories seem like real people. In the ones where the characters don't seem may be because I have never been exposed to people like the ones in the story. GOOD JOB! Always looking for a new story from you. When I don't find a new one, I read one of the old ones again. 5*

Damn you!

You covered all my points in your final comments! I really enjoyed this little fable of Degarde LA. It moved quickly (like a soap opera...), had a nice bunch of interesting characters. This is the 2nd of your stories I have read, and I am looking for writing style. Keep it up!

Another entertaining story, from a great storyteller. I love the way the author inserts cameo roles from characters in other stories giving the reader a more complete picture of the township. I nearly fell off my chair laughing when reading the paragraph halfway down page 8, "His mother bought the cheapest toilet paper, not understanding that the bargain brand was no bargain if you used twice as much of it." So true!

Crackers at times but loved it. Yes, at times the disjointed sentences were a nuisance and switching between characters could have been better. Still 5

Really enjoy your post scripts....Oh! and the story,too. 5 stars, at least.

Love the story. You're writing is great. Love the cameos of characters from other stories. I don't think you need an editor very much, there are only minor things I noticed. Keep doing what you're doing for as long as you enjoy it!

I love this story so much, especially the Cindy and David storyline.

And I am angry that you wrote the subsequent story where Greg apparently cheats on Dominique. Don't do that to us, man.

I say a BIG NO to all your disclaimers. It's one of your best, and I keep looking for connections in your other stories. So, Five stars. I really enjoyed reading it again.

Loved it, such a great story. Looking forward to reading more of them 5*

I just love the humor in these Louisiana stories, so might even make an exception and look through some categories I normally skip to see if there are more of them. Excellent read, thank you.

I was going to leave a complaint but your last few lines covered everything except maybe not needing an editor. Great story.

A confusing barrage of jokes and positivity. Loved it.

Great story. Cycling through your work again and this was one I missed before. Wonderful characters.

Honestly, I enjoy the hell out of your stories.

A bit too long, but a nice story.

Very good. A few typos, but very enjoyable!

Maybe you need an editor and maybe we all do..

It's not too long or too short.

It does jump around and has a lot of characters but it's not too much.

It's in the right category.

It's fiction which allows stupid shit.

You don't suck.

I do feel better.

I'm not having a sparkly day though.

Nice story. Well done!

I especially enjoyed Trevor's family's reactions.

5 starts for the series of disclaimers, alone.

The story was fun, too.
