On the edge of my seat! (Well....i guess there's no edge to the floor, but you get it LOL) I want to read more....I'd even read more about the radio show the family was listening to!
Great job :]

Thank you kindly. I'm glad you enjoyed the story. It was a lot of fun to write. So glad to see you here on BookRix. If I can be of any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact me.
It's good that you found a way out of those constraints that the contest put on you. Neat little story. If you hadn't mentioned that they celebrated Thanksgiving early, I would have been really confused.

What a wonderfully lovely thing to say. I must admit, I'm ever so flattered by the attention my little story has garnered. It makes me blush AND reminds me that even those 'little stories' can pack quite a wallop! Perhaps I will visit the Jameson family again - one day. And we'll finally find out what became of Peter on that fateful day!
Again, my most gracious and sincere thanks!

@Stephen.Johnson.Jr I am once again pleased to know that I was able to create a story that was quite different from the bevy of tales that were sent in for the contest. When I read the prompt originally I thought, 'oh, great...I have to do a scary story!' But I simply wasn't feeling it. I tried (for about 5 minutes) but I couldn't do it. BUT when the 'radio show' popped into my head I said...'That's it!' And I decided to run... mehr anzeigen

Thank you @wells12! I, too, think the WWII era is quite interesting especially since it was a point in history where everything changed so very fast and affected SO many people. And I love that I was able to connect the spirit of the tales my father used to tell around our dinner table to this story. I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you, kindly. I actually have plans to continue the story and who knows perhaps I'll do a quick look at what was happening at the NY radio station when the Tale of the Undead Pullman was so abruptly interrupted. BTW, the Undead Pullman is a real ghost story where I grew up. BOO!! :-)
Really? Oh that's really scary :O xD
Nothing like growing up in a mill town with railroad tracks running through it! There's also the Ghost of Cook's Crossing (about a man who died at that same intersection when he was hit by a train) and The Lost Leg (about a lone leg that was found along that same stretch of... mehr anzeigen
Nothing like growing up in a mill town with railroad tracks running through it! There's also the Ghost of Cook's Crossing (about a man who died at that same intersection when he was hit by a train) and The Lost Leg (about a lone leg that was found along that same stretch of track but there was no 'body' to be found ANYWHERE - made creepier by the fact that one of my good friend's older brother was hit by a train and dragged for about a half mile and lost his leg - it was along that same stretch of track---yeah, it totally creeped me out because it was way too real!). Now that I think of it, I might write a book of ghost tales.
I love ghost stories :D If you do , I'll have to read it LOL
