You frighten me, too, you know, with your description of something or somebody lurking in the dark. I'm surprised with your 'well' of imagination that never dries itself...

    I think this site has stimulated my old brain...I question myself sometimes where the idea came from. Thanks for reviewing and the comments. Carol

    I can't thank you enough for those kind words. I guess I never thought of myself as an author. sure I write but I didn't give myself a name. Thank you for making me feel great tonight. Carol

Well done! Nice use of active descriptions that really make the scene vivid. Love the low-key ending. Good luck in the contest!

    Thanks for stopping by and reading my story. Writing a story in 80 words was harder than I thought. I appreciate your review. Carol

This begins with a great hook and ends with a humorous twist. Very good job of writing. You set us up for horror and give us comedy. Good luck in your contest.

    Remember Eccl. 9:10. Now, I'm giving you homework assignments.

    Charlie...I am not ready for the grave yet...I am too impatient to lie still that long. So I will have to write some more and work that much harder to keep you interested in what I write. Did I pass the assignment??? Carol

    Ecclesiastes 9:10 - "Whatsoever your hands findeth to do, do it with all thy might."

    You have my interests. My only complaint was long posting. I think you would have more readers if you kept your posting under 2,000 words. I expressed that thought to you, once before.

    I don't think any one is ready for the grave, but unfortunately when the time comes, our opinions are not asked.

I am SO impressed that you wrote a complete and fun story in only 80 words - I read the contest requirements and thought Heather had lost her mind! LOL You have setting, conflict, resolution, suspense, characters, and a great twist ending that made me laugh. I cannot ask for any more! Brooke

    Brooke I thought she was out of her mind too when I first read it. I thought to myself that I can't write a story in 700 words why did I think I could write one in 80. I had to pat myself on the back for this one...after clip, cut, clip, cut, etc. Thanks for the wonderful review. Glad you enjoyed the story. Carol

    Heather I thought you were crazy when I first looked at the rules. You know me the more words the better. But I thought of an idea and then started cutting, clipping, cutting and surprise!!! I actually did it. Surprised ,myself more than anyone else I think. Thanks so much. Carol
