you came up with a good story with so few words. I liked it and it is well written, but the idea is well used so that's the only thing; in my opinion, that took away from it.

Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I enjoyed your eerie little tale. It's well written and gave me a shiver. I think it's an art form in and of itself to be able to tell a complete story in 100 words, but you did just that. I'm just beginning my writing journey and I LOVE creepy thrillers. So I tried my hand at 100 words and learned how challenging it can be. Where did you learn to create such beautiful writing? The way you build tension and then release it at the end is exhilarating.

A spooky story. Not a lot of gore, but the kind of scary I like--a psychological thriller that gives goose bumps and makes you start at the sounds in the other room-- what you are really hearing. And what is there in the shadows that you cannot quite see? Don't think about it too much you you might find out....
Well done.

What a shame. I was recently disqualified from a contest because I misread and posted a free verse in a blank verse contest. Asked if it could be reentered but was too late. I loved this because it was psychologically thrilling. Did not need graphic spillage. lol.

This is not the kind of company I want. I better get a priest in to exorcise her spirit from the tap and phone so I don't receive any horrific messages, then I can sleep well and be at peace. Well done, Dean.

An ingenious creative work. An amazing feat I have never read nor HEARD on this site before. It was chilling and entertaining. I wish you luck in the contest. As far as I'm concern, you are a winner.

Hey, thanks for dropping by to read and review the story for me, Tpa. I really appreciate the positive feedback and exceptional rating.
Unfortunately, I never got to enter my contribution in the contest. My hands were tied because I'd already posted twice, and even though I completely deleted a post just to get in, I was still denied. Oh well, it was fun to write just the same.
I'm very happy you enjoyed it.

Hi Dean,
Very nice chapter added to the 'Tiny Tales' anthology? Your touch has been missed greatly, my friend.
A good atmospheric, spooky rendition here. Back on a good footing it seems.
Nicely done

Thanks, Gareth. I'd intended to list it as one of the chapters in the book but I'd forgotten all about doing so.
I really appreciate the positive review.

It never made it to the contest, Margaret. I explained why in my author's notes.
It's good to be back, thanks for giving this tiny tale a once-over. I do appreciate it.

Comment from Janet Foor
Creepy for sure. I haven't taken a shower while alone in the house since "Psycho". Haha So sorry you couldn't enter the contest - this is perfect for the 100 word horror contest. I don't like some of FanStory rules.

I don't like a LOT of FanStory's rules, Janet, LOL. But, there's no better site in which to receive constructive feedback (and at times, not so constructive, if you get my meaning) from readers on the internet. I know, I belong to several other writing sites.
Thanks very much for the positive comments.
