This is really very short. I am amazed at how writers can cook up a complete full story in just 50 words. You did well here which proved how skilled the writer is in telling stories. Thanks for sharing.

50 words was indeed a challenge. I had to edit, re-edit, clarify and continue to wonder if it was understood, I hope the judges get it. Thank you so much for reading it.

You developed a great entry for the Dribble Flash Fiction contest. The dialogue is all important and you did a wonderful job creating the flow between characters. Well done.

The only complaint I have is that it is too short. Other than that it is well written. I enjoyed the read, what there was of it. Great job, I must say.

I agree, but it was written in a contest that only allowed between 48 and 52 words. It was hard to limit it. Thank you so much for liking it anyways.

Hello, a good entry for the dribble flash fiction contest. I still don't know what the difference is between a flash fiction and a dribble flash fiction, Judy, so maybe you can enlighten me, lol :) I think yours was very good reading, and I get the ending, sticky, like the jelly. I hope that's the case, anyway. Thanks for sharing your writing, Ana.

Thank you Ana, I also was trying to use the phrase, sticky subject and change it to sticky suspect. It was a fun but hard write. 50 words are gone in so short of a time. the difference is dribble is only between 48 and 50 words. It is so hard to tell a story with those limitations.

That is certainly fast moving and humorous. The play on words is great. It is certainly a worthy contest entry. Best of luck! Evi

I liked your piece. I think that writing fanfiction is very difficult but you did well. I think her husband killed her. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much, yes he did she just was losing too much blood to remember her and his name so she reverted to Jelly, Welch, and that makes him a sticky suspect ( word play on sticky subject). I appreciate your thoughts

Thank you I didn't think until the end. It's a play on words from Sticky Subject to Sticy Suspect. I enjoyed writing it.
Thank you so much.

Hi there,
It may well just be me but I struggled a little with this one. I get the sticky in reference to the jam/canning but feel I'm missing something significant about the husband?
"Tell us! Who did this to you? - need closing speech marks here.
"Jar" - need punctuation before the closing speech marks here.

I will go fix those things right away. The Sticky Suspect is supposed to be a play on words like Sticky Subject. We used to use that phrase years ago if the subject of the day was one we would disagree on, so that is the reason for the semi-pun.
