Was a read very enjoyable, that maintain my interest awake all the time in the wait of the that go to pass. By a moment I thought that the spider was poisonous and would kill Mrs. Moreno. I loved, congrats and good luck.

The spider should have hired a cat. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. Good luck in your contest.

Comment from adewpearl
You set the stage well in your opening paragraphs and you pique my curiosity at the same time
you have an engaging narrative voice - I like the aside to the reader about taunting spiders
as this was her lively hood - livelihood
good personification of the spider
I love the combative relationship between spider and house cleaner
Where did you go, Arana - add comma for direct address
I have something for you, Arana - add comma
What a compelling ending!!! Brooke

Comment from sibhus
A very imaginative piece of writing. I thought it was really clever how you have pitted the spider against the cleaning lady, and her attempts to rid herself of the dreaded spider. This had a good flow that made it an enjoyable read and an excellent entry for the contest. Again good story and good luck with the contest.

Comment from Carolyn 12
To me this is a funny story. I love the idea of letting go of a bird in the house to catch the spider. Smart bird, dead spider bird flys out-house empty. Cool.

I was totally engaged with your story, but I was rooting for the spider. As far as I am concerned you killed the hero. How often does that happen? It had to've been well done for me to last through it, but you were wrong about the room being empty. I was there at the end.

Comment from ScarletClearwater
You use the word "empty" a lot. try a synonym for more dynamic reading. I also wondered why the lady didn't use a step stool or ladder, maybe the room was even taller than that? You realy good imagery with this piece though. Good job!
