Hi there,

This is a nice variation on the old Jack and Jill nursery rhyme. I am not sure about the contraction of 'we all', to 'we'll'. It reads a little awkward.

Good luck in the contest.

Very well done. One of the few to tell an actual story. Much of the bsck story is easily filed on based on the exchange between Jack and Jill. Nice job building tension so quickly. Exceptional. A winner.

lol, Jill should have stayed away from that hill. You have done a fantastic job telling a great story in only 100 words and meeting the criteria of the writing prompt; characters, setting, conflict and what a resolution. hahahaha

Best of luck in the contest.

This is a wildly creative one-hundred-yard-dash flash fiction entry for the contest. Quite an interesting, mysterious new outlook for the Jack and Jill story. Good luck to you, Jeanie Mercer

It's amazing how this story matches my own story. I took a future wife to the very same place in my uncle's barn that I had taken her sister a month earlier. Nice story.

Hey, a fascinating piece of flash fiction. Or would this be considered micro flash?

You have an interesting way of bringing the reader to disclosure and the climax. Only until the next to the last line did I know he would be killing Jill.

Good job, Mr/mrs/ anonymity.

This is a great contest entry, you certainly set the scene well and put a dark twist on the rhyme: Jack and Jill went up the hill. I couldn't spot any faults with your writing. Good luck in the contest...Jacob
