To the author of "Reap What You Sow". I expected an entirely different type prose. Even as I read the beginning and middle, I assumed it would be different. When I got to the end, I thought to myself, what did I just read? The presentation was appropriate. To me, it's worth five stars for your ability. Carole

High drama, lots of tension - entirely in single-syllable words - well done!

I wonder if this could blossom into a longer tale?

Best wishes for the contest, mystery writer!

Truly captivating. Your writing style is outstanding. I sensed the emotions he was going through and the regret of his assailant. It is amazing how powerful your story is when it so short. Love the art work you choose also. The few lines under it leads right into the story. Kept my attention all the way.

This is really good. Maybe even more so since the requirements call for single syllables, it gives a harsh excitement that feels really in the moment and creates an intensity that makes for an excellent read. A great entry for the contest and good luck.

Very interesting. Not bad at all, and you did it all with one syllable words. I tip my imaginary hat, this is well written and exciting, just as a short fiction should be.

a very nice story by you an emotional vamp. i must say you tries to bind the two different creature with your thought, that line "You could have made me your friend. We could have lived in peace, but you need the beast. Your kind needs the hunt. I live off blood; you live off hate." clearly emphasis that what one party thinks to react or oppose to another party's action which they knew is going to be deadly. a very nice work. keep it up.

this is an excellent write, mystery writer, you did an excellent job writing this single syllable story about the boy who was turned into a killer through the people that hunted him. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

Much too short. You had me gripped from start to finish and was sorry when the last words "Ware the ire of Vamp!" were read. I actually felt the fear of the hunted and then the resolve to fight or die.
Well done!
