Dark and creepy. Well done!

[suesniffsglue]

Thank you much!

This was intense. I love the way you attached meaning to the little details of a boogeywoman and created a creature who didn't create misery as much as fed off of it.

[suesniffsglue]

Thank you! I have long been plagued by nightmares, so this is autobiographical in part!

You do unsettling so well. This was darkly beautiful.

[suesniffsglue]

Thank you! Unsettling is my favorite thing to do :)

I am in awe of the power in this narrative. It packs so many punches all the while being so succinct. You're imagination is incredible.

[suesniffsglue]

Thank you <3<3 I wish it was more imaginative than it actually is, though. I have always had nightmares, and the first half of this is pretty autobiographical! The rest, I am not sure yet :)

I may be a bit biased, being that you've been my best friend for the last 27 years, but I absolutely love it! Darkly beautiful is the best descriptioni have. I wanted to read more! You area very talented writer! (And Stephen King would love it! )
