Ha, ha. I know I shouldn't laugh on account of because this is a horror story, but I would have to agree with the author, Constance is biodegradable.
Excellent horror and thriller story and written in exactly 100 words. You're really good at these, Bill.
Top of the season to you my dear. Looking forward to your next year's output.

Love this! I used my last six star on it! Do you know what on what day we are rewarded more? I tired doing this and was stumped for an idea. I love the irony in it of the grocery bags being the tool of her demise as well as the line about being biodegradable.

Comment from tfawcus
The constant nagging of a good woman can drive a man to all sorts of things! In this case, Ned seems to have found the perfect solution. Just about as macabre as you can get within the scope of 100 words! The biodegradable comment at the end is a great finishing touch!

Thank you, Tony, for the excellent review. Bill
Comment from Zue65
Wow, the twist is a surprise and unexpected in the last closing line of your story. After all, this is a story of the plastic and it must therefore be told from the point of view of the plastic himself or herself. I enjoyed this very short story.

Comment from Louise Michelle
Hi Bill,
It isn't easy writing a story with just one hundred words, but I think you did a good job. I loved the satirical ending.
You just need to go back and double space between paragraphs.
Hugs,
Lou

Comment from Debbie Noland
Well, that Ned is pretty cold! Your little flash horror story works pretty well, employing a clever twist on the couple's argument over plastic bag biodegradability. It is one of those stories where the premise is almost too funny (am I sick?) to convey authentic horror, but I still like its wit and originality.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Eeeee-eeeks. I guess Constance wasn't too quick to learn not to criticize, hmmm? What a great little horror story! All the elements are there - not an easy task in only one hundred words, but this is very clever - great plot, Good luck! :)

Bill Schott, okay that was a horror story, short but epic in proportions and imagery.
I am impressed. It is hard to do a potent story in 100 words or less. You must have to do a lot of editing.. well done.. jlsavell

Thank you, Jimi, for the kind review. I did this story on my IPad so I had to count each word manually. I got up to sixty-five words and then had to add and subtract ideas for a conclusion up to 100.
