All I can say is poor, forgetful Mary McGregor! She should have shoved it in her backpack! This was interesting. I wondered where your story was going and yes, I was surprised!

Yes, I often use that excuse myself, haha. I too could be a world class writer if only that darn bus didn't brake so hard and frighten me.
This is an entertaining, fully-formed story.

Now that would be sad, and possibly the only time that the finder of the misplaced manuscript had ever won a contest, but I remember when I lost many works off my hard drive some years ago. There's many more where that came from.beautifully written my friend, good luck, blessings Roy

-Nice artwork and story to go with it.
-A very good opening paragraph sets the scene
and premise for the story.
-It sounds like she had a very good story,
but it wasn't to be for Mary.
-A very good ending, as well.
-I wonder if someone else took the
scrap paper and wrote the story?
-Good luck in the contest.

I enjoyed reading your story. It was no surprise that she raced to the exit or that she forgot her story. It reminded me of the times that I've written some of my best stuff on scraps of paper on buses or in the car in traffic holdups. Good luck in the contest. Jen.

Good story, and writing prompt entry. It was interesting and kept me reading to the end. Too bad that she left it in the bus. I liked the humor at the end, not too for Mary, that she forgot her best story. But the last sentence there went her contest winner. A little humor for the situation. Nicely done with your writing. Thank you for sharing.

I'm sure she can remember the plot anyway. That's why I carry a pencil and notebook. What a wonderfully written story with a good twist.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless!

This made me smile as I have often spent hours on a sonnet and just about perfected only to find I have deleted it and can't get it back! A fun post for the contest, I was entertained, love Dolly x

Hmm, well, I guess this was a surprise for Mary. Is the surprise her losing the story written on scraps? Perhaps, the surprise is where and when her best novel came to her (but was it her best if she lost it?). Or maybe it was whatever made the bus stop.

Very interesting.
