This seventy-five-word story, Coffee Black No Guilt Please, has the required word count and tells a sad story of what was good being wiped out by the virus. Life CAN go on when we all pitch in.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
This is a good story with an introduction, middle and conclusion. It becomes a cautionary tale. It is a timely topic. The reader will be drawn in to identify or certainly affirm the situation. Well written with the word limit.

Well, that ending was unexpected. But in light of what could happen, it is realistic. You did a great job, Mystery Author, with your contest entry. You told a little snippet of a story in a way that is easily understood. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

I suspect this story will be common in the days to come. It's unimaginable all the side effects from this pandemic.

This is an excellent entry for the 75 word story contest. It is topical, but at the same time transcends our current difficulties. Indeed, all small businesses risk bankruptcy in the current competitive economic conditions.

Life, familiar places, and people can change in the blink of the eye. The virus moves faster than people can adapt. Our world is new now. The past is only memories to write about.
