This is an interesting story that the author has created with this piece of writing. This is a short and not so sweet post from the author. I will be wary of the next storm. Good luck in the contest.

Staying with 100 words involved choices you exercised very capably. The characters and sequence of events are entirely clear, and you leave us with a cliffhanger that challenges us to consider possibilities but accept probability.

Short and sharp to the point just like the knife in Steven hand
Uncluttered horror that is damed scary because it is so belie bale and can so easily happen this deserves to win

Hi mystery writer, a horror story in one hundred words.

This is a good contender for the contest with the surprise at the end.

A night of terror and an open ending.

Good luck.

:) Mel.

You did a good job with your rewrite. I understand how challenging it can be to distil your story down to the bare bones. Every word has to advance your story. You did well in giving the reader enough information to be horrified. Excellent verbal images with the storm and the boy standing there holding a bloody knife.
Great job. Good luck in the contest.

this was very creepy, and could even have been a real event, so many loonies today, the only way to hault a knife may be a karate kick to the hand,

"Very Wrong" Well, I have to say that it is quite normal to write a usual story with thousands of words, but something else to write a story with a limit of 100 words. Well done.

Hi there,

It is always a challenge to take on a short piece of fiction. What to take out and leave in to still make a tense and coherent story.

Good job here bringing it home in the tight constraints. Good atmosphere created.

Good luck in the competition.
