You've cut down your text word count from previous week. Very different writing too. I don't know if you want any feedback... you'll get some. I loved the Monkey! Loved it. So well written, and unexpected. The judge and the briefcase did not make sense to me. I cannot pinpoint. The Wallpaper too I really liked. I was wondering, if it would work without the last sentence about the lights going out.
Haha! I welcome Feedback, yes, it's always interesting to hear what people think. This Post hasn't been doing too well, to be honest, and getting no Restacks has completely killed it. I've been trying to figure out what I did wrong compared to last week, where the engagement was so fantastic. In 'The Judge's Wife', the idea is supposed to be that the guy has kidnapped her and he's trying to collect a ransom, but when the ransom arrives it gets stolen by some kids. That story being first, if it is indeed not clear enough, could well be the issue. Because people are probably going to give up and never get to the good stuff. The other problem, of course, could be that most people just don't like Horror. And there's two here. But what I wanted to do with this series was experiment with different styles and genres and see what was possible in 100 words or less. A few people have been enjoying it, though, so that's something at least. Thanks for taking the time to Comment, I really appreciate it... 😎
Oh it's clear he's waiting for his ransom... and that the case gets stolen, it's just that something in it is not convincing me. Also, you got some comments, one day you'll get more. If this is what you like doing, keep writing, keep posting.
That's interesting. I guess it is a bit unbelievable he'd wait across the street, but he's meant to be a bit bungling and it's more of a humorous one so I thought I could get away with it! Haha. It's not been a complete disaster by any means, and I'm very grateful to the people who have been enjoying it, I was just really hoping to build on the progress I made last week, but it's fine. I will keep persevering! You just never know what's going to happen on here and what people are going to be into. Which, ultimately, is half the fun of it... 😎
You can never know. Just keep doing what you enjoy. The Monkey for me is the one. George theme going on maybe here as well. Bit it’s the story thats not 100% settled that makes us improve as writers.
I like 'The Monkey', too. That is a really fun one. Because these volumes have been quite a bit different to what I usually do, I've been trying to keep a good mix of humour in there as well, so the change doesn't feel too radical. Overall, it's been a very enjoyable experiment so far... 😎
ooh a cliffhanger. I need to know what happens next.
Thanks! It's always a fun challenge trying to end these little stories on a cliffhanger or a twist of some kind. I'm glad you enjoyed them... 😎

It is fun, yet serious. It is a totally different level Monkey.
Hmm, I don't think you've done something or anything wrong. It's the good weather, people are out! That's against you!
That is very true. You could well be right. This is my first summer on here. Things might pick up again in the autumn! Haha... 😎
Well the summer will be full of rain I'm sure by judging at the spring so far.
I'd definitely rather have rain than another one of those summers where it was north of forty degrees! I had to buy seven fans! Haha... 😎
No take that back… it’s freezing… enough with the cold.
I’m intrigued!
Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying them... 😎
