A humorous take on awkward social situations. Clad in mobster-flair and godfather kinda crime fiction comedy.

``Now, I have so much not to review on masterpieces making me pale in envy?´´ ;-) A little overstatement.

Another story that has some detail, whereby the strength of the writing style makes the story-flow work from start to final.

``You're direct and brutally practical but courteous, well dressed and well spoken...you could tell me to go to Hell and I'd look forward to the trip...´´

The character interaction makes this much better than a solitary detective on a job approaches, because herein it works out fine, as we can develop or likes or dislikes about the characters.

A tone of French flair is predominant in this story, and the dialogues include some witty & clever lines.

Impressive work, though not the kind of story I prefer (my RL is too far off that mainstream normalcy, since I restored myself from homeless wreck to worker & back to unemployed wreck. LOL)

Wonderful, time-efficient poem on feeling trapped, because one indeed is trapped.

Though, lies toll nerves from the Devil, as one whim of God can turn some into hope! Even a false dream can yield real results, after all. ;-)

A more mature kinda poem on finding back to our true purpose in life & persevering (going on, instead of succumbing). Good work!

Wise poetry, full of figures of speech.

``Let us hope that she survives her foolishness long enough to become strong enough for the life she has to live?´´

The despair of not being able to keep our loved ones alive, when they venture into dangerous duty, given poetic words!

Formidable, relatable, and heart-touching piece of poetry.

A detailed short story, and a no-less formidable poem comes along with it. It reminds me of Victorian Age classic ghost stories, yet is very unique (refreshingly, appeciated).

Vagualy reminding of Victorian Age UK ghost-stories, still unique and lovely in its atmosphere, character description, and plot.

``The tour entered the swish Lenna Hotel for more accounts and legends. They made their way up staircases to the rectangular cupola for a view of the harbour lights.´´

Another story working well WITHOUT any need for excessive violence, platitudes, or gory details. Also, an underlying, benevolent humor of even the dreaded moments in life taking a good turn.

As usual with JPYoung (the author): No complaints about grammar or format either.
