Yes! We love to play Clue and other games. But Clue is a favorite with my girls. My youngest son loves the movie. Murder is always a good topic for a flash fiction. :P

    Thank you so much for the lovely review. Yes, my large family loves board games, and Clue is always at the top. Scrabble, too. ;)

Ah! Well done! I LOVE that game! I haven't played it in years, but am sure Keven has the game here in a closet. Now I have to drag that out and make him play. FUNNY! Maybe you will inspire me to try some of these short writes (maybe not!) and who knows what might come out???
Hilarious you put on a warning for violence! :)

    Thank you for the wonderful review. You're so kind. I thought this up after playing board games for an entire day with my grandchildren. We love games but had been apart for so long, we had a game marathon. I'm pleased you enjoyed this and the violence warning.... (You're the only one who got it.) ;)

A wonderful and creative take on the game of Clue. I really like how you molded a piece of flash fiction out of a board game. My best to you in the contest.

    Faye dear, thank you so much for the kind review of this silly flash fiction. I couldn't sleep one night and thought this up. Is this crazy or what? I'm so glad you enjoyed it and thought it six worthy. I really appreciate your kind attention to my work.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Having played the board game I really appreciate how you made the characters come to life in a believable story that fit right in with the game itself.

I just watched the movie and it was so willy nilly that this piece fit perfectly with it. I loved the confusion you recreated in this piece to match the one i felt watching it. Perfectly done.

Lol! I remember playing Clue with my kids. It's a fun game and all those characters were interesting. It probably is a good mental exercise, too. Best wishes in the contest!

Delightfully witty! I well remember the game--clever play with Peacock's feathers ruffled and amusing punchline. You may have a winner--good luck. Cheers. LIZ


Congrats on your recognition--as I'd hoped.

Hi there Sally! I love the twist, it's how to do flash.
It's hard to do a whole story in so few words!

Very enjoyable and I wish you the best in the contest too!

Yes, Sally, I'm remember the game of Clue well. I enjoyed your contest entry. You did a great job with a complete story in 75 words. I like the presentation--the font, the font size, the image, the added bonus of the video.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Hi Sally, I liked how well this is written, but the I'm afraid the whole pun is lost on me. Non of your fault, but I've never heard about a famous board game called Clue. I grew up in Denmark. And never came across it in all the countries I've lived in ever since. What a shame. I'll have to look it up. All best. Ulla xxx
