This is only the opinion and suggestions of the reviewer and it is still up to the author of this piece to consider this review as a corrective action or otherwise. THE STORY A local gives a tourist directions to Bubba's Corner BBQ. Better have a receipt and a pen handy to write down where to go! WHAT I LIKED I loved the explanation as to why Bubba's wasn't on the corner. A hog got lose and tore through the BBQ, then... ah -- I'll let you check it out for a chuckle or two! It's a good thing I wasn't drinking any coffee at the time. I would have spit it out! POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the first person by an unnamed narrator. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately. DIALOGUE The dialogue drives the story. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Bubba opened the back door, and it ran squarely into one of those big smokers he had back there." -- Great visual. I could easily picture this happening in my imagination. SETTING TIME: modern day PLACE: rural setting This is something that is clarified for the reader. CHARACTERS The narrator The narrator is looking for directions, but I don't think they expected the directions they got. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make it easy to read on the eyes. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening engages the reader with the opening question: "Do you think you can tell me how to there from here?" A light read that will make you laugh.
