This seventy-five-word story, Party Animal, has the required word count and pulls the readers into Stella's well-planned day of good experiences before ending it. I guess a good night's sleep might make one thing there could never be a better one.

I assume (offed) means (topped) herself here. She obviously loved her food immensely but still wanted to end your life, the last supper, good luck with the contest Brett, love Dolly x

I'm certainly becoming more and more of a fan of flash fiction and I'm sure enjoying your posts in Dribbles and Drabbles. A few short words that can say so much in such short space. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Brett,
Wow, that's pretty dark. One has to wonder if she slept so good because she knew it would be her last night, or if the decision she made to kill herself gave her the peace she needed to sleep soundly. Perhaps after a few great meals she would realize that if she were gone there would be no more enjoyable meals to come and would reconsider. Well written.
Have a blessed day.
Tom

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I am wondering why Stella feels the need to commit suicide. I'm sure I am reading way more into this contest entry than I should. The writing is very good. Good luck with the contest.

Off herself? Wow..lol..kinda funny how this cartoon you choose came to be. I forgotten the writer's name but years back she asked me to work in her dog in with my cartoon series "Funnie Flowers". Did it in a day and then she changed her mind selected a photo. Quite common for writers to do that to artist on FAR side. No worries. I'm glad someone got some use from it. Unusual story and good job as well. MKFLOOD

The 75 word flash fiction entry is a mystery wrapped in an enigma to me. I'm not really sure where Stella is coming from and exactly what she's going to offer herself up for but it is really nice to know that she's gonna have a good breakfast in and a lovely dinner. L O L Thanks for sharing.

    She is not going to offer herself for anything. She is going to off (kill) herself. Believe you misread this but appreciate the review.

    Brett you are right, it went clear over my head. Lol You had a front row seat to my incompetence and the resulting misunderstanding. L. O. L. And you are most welcome for my feeble attempt.

Yikes! I knew something was going to happen but I was still surprised by the ending! So she offed herself after having the day of her life! What a pity! Thanks for the twist in just 75 words!
