Excellent piece--spot on.<BR/><BR/>Here's a thought--remember the piece you did called "the drive'--I loved that one--that's a neat dark companion piece to this one and your little serial killer finger taker dude--Why not link em up?<BR/><BR/>SmoochTurnbabyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02112548452165588580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24194846.post-83535532785262228622007-02-27T09:03:00.000-06:002007-02-27T09:03:00.000-06:00I like creepy, dark stories, and this one was very good!

I'm so glad I backtracked and read this. <BR/><BR/>I USED to like baked beans and now I have to think of you and maggots whenever I eat them?

Exactly the right length for a pre-work read on a Tuesday morning and it kept my interest piqued right up to the end....

I love bizarre stories like this, where there's no obligation to have a 'happy ending', and things don't always have to make perfect sense.<BR/>People are strange creatures; it's fun to try capturing that in words. You tackled the job nicely.<BR/>Except I may never be able to eat baked beans ever again.Jannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04827716404911856909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24194846.post-875639857772035182007-02-26T21:11:00.000-06:002007-02-26T21:11:00.000-06:00i never saw YELLOW drool before Travis!

That's very good writing, when the story is told and there are still things crawling around undisclosed in the readers mind. Like maggots in the beans.<BR/>A very cool story. I think, one of your best.<BR/>It reminded me of Richard Matheson's I Am Vampire, which is a good thing -- that story creeped me out, too.<BR/>cheers,<BR/>MoMorgenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16654573008006116939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24194846.post-91584161205414513452007-02-26T14:03:00.000-06:002007-02-26T14:03:00.000-06:00WOW - that was incredible.
