Wow, now I'm afraid of what will happen with the dust dinosaurs, under my bed, now that I have read your story. Great story with wonderful descriptions that, I'm sure, we all can relate to, ha, ha. It had a good pace to it making it an ejoyable read. The ending was good.

Wow. After reading this story, it almost makes me want to go through the house with a feather duster and vacuum. I wonder what dust bunnies might be lurking here?

Great job.

Susan,
those damned dust bunnies are evil. Your story is very well written. I enjoyed the humor in parts when she started talking to her mop. This lady is a few french fries short of a Happy Meal. There's dust bunnies in her head. I love the dark humor/horror in this story. I think this is the story about the crazy up the street with aluminum foil as window dressings that swears every person is out to get her. Keep up the wonderful writing.
Melissa.

Susan, this is quite an unusual take off on a thriller / horror write. Very well penned (as always), and you selected the perfect artwork to match this piece. Very well done, my friend.

A woman living with a man can go crazy too. You are so funny. I agree with the lady in the story. Life is more than just pushing dust bunnies around. Even if you clean they are back tomorrow. Very funny little piece and well written. Anne

Yes, . . . this is subtle horror. It is not difficult to imagine that a woman could go crazy if the dust bunnies started demanding attention! This is a cute story, and it is told well. ~patty~

Suse,

I like the theme and mood of this piece. Your character's predicament reminded me of "Bugs," a play made into a movie about a woman and her male companion gradually sinking deeper and deeper into insanity in a desert motel. There's a very odd and intriguing darkness in this that contributes a great deal of depth to the conflict. My only meaningful suggestion is that it needs tightening.

    Hi G! OH yes, I saw that film...a good show! CREEPY to the max. Ashley Judd was the gal. SHe's great too. THis is a great review...I will try to take some words out someday...hey, and the guy who was in Bugs, starred in a movie called "Let's Go To Prison", if you like silly, but FUNNY movies, you should try to see it someday? He is Leonard in it, a really bad guy who gets his. I am grateful for this time you gave me too. ") Suse

Susan,

I enjoyed reading this post about the dust critters who took over a house. She should've used the mop.

I found one small nit:

"...small beady eyes glaring through the fuzzy stuff that makes up it's [its] head. The word "it's" is a contraction of "it is."
