Week 8: No Comment

[kschlotwrites]

What am I doing? I think, as I look at the man I have handcuffed to his bed, wearing only his boxers. This isn't me.I shake my head, to get rid of the thoughts. This is me now. As soon as I saw Adam's picture on Tinder--with backwards baseball cap, beer bottle pressed up to his lips, and his bio, "You only live once. Have fun!"--I became this

What a great, dark way to use the prompt. "No comment," plus he is gagged to silence him. The description of the reactions to the deaths was really good!

[kschlotwrites]

Thank you!

Wow. Dark and intense, and it was clear after the middle section that the victim wasn't randomly chosen-- he wasn't someone who resembled the guilty party. He WAS the guilty party.

I like the "little bit around the bend" internal narrative in the last section, and while horrified at what Angela is doing, I also understand why that became her obsession.

Wow, dark. And.... weirdly easy to relate to Angela (besides that my name is Angela) and the vengeance impulse. Good job!
