A short story that continues to ignite the imagination well after the story ends. The image you created is perfect for the story. I can see why a 15 foot gorilla would be pissed off in a snow storm.

Abominable Snowman...HAHAHA! This is a great little story that satisfies the prompt well and the story flows beautifully with a beginning, middle and a funny ending. Your art is awesome and compliments the story very well. This is excellent flash fiction that should do well in the booth. Well done! Lynda

Your story is well written right down to the end of the last paragraph. The word "clean" puts it in the teen category while the rest of the story sounds very professional. Good job on the picture and the story.

beast bit Tom's head clean off his shoulders.(drop the word "clean")

I gasped three times during your story. What a magnificent example of tension and horror showing up in the span of just a couple hundred words. The build is fantastic. "...fifteen-foot tall beast snatched him out of the snow, lifting him right up to its face." Keep writing this genre...you really excel at it. I wish I had a six star!
