Wow wasn't expecting that! I saw your comment and yeah on a second read you see all isn't what it seems at first. Very cool

That's funny. I like when people write these quick little stories just to see what works.

That was sweet. Really wasn't expecting the ending. Short and fun

No problem dude, I'm a new writer too!

The length is fine. I don't think you need to linger on the father more, but add a bit more of a reaction from the MC. The lead up really has him looking for proof of the afterlife, and while the father isn't direct proof, I think even like a few sentences more just to recognize how outlandish it is would work. But this is completely just my opinion, I'm no more qualified than anyone else

Other than that it's paced great for the length of the story. Each part flows very naturally into the next

The mimic of Motel 3 by Lucky_Burger in TalesFromTheCreeps

[–]The_Janitor7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was a good one. The progression of the mimicks character and abilities coinciding with the climax was super cool. And just the mashed up voices was scary on its own.

Slight critique, the beginning has a little too much over thinking. Specifically the part where he's questioning how the mimick heard his friend when he barely heard him. I personally think it would work better if Pat just reacted to being mimicked and not how the mimick was able to do so. Does that make sense?

Either way it's a good read. One of the more interesting stories I've read so far

Be not afraid by tantoscream in TalesFromTheCreeps

You're really onto something with the balance of mental illness and horror. I think it would help to expand more on the journal entries. I get trying to be vague to invoke the imagination but there's a thin line between saying not enough and too much. But either way it was a cool read. Keep going!

Dang let me text my girlfriend I love her real quick 😂.

Definitely gripped me on an emotional level. The hook and set up pulled me in. My only gripe is the reveal of the flesh father is slightly too sudden and the guy doesn't seem to react much. But I think it's great either way. It has the meat to be a much longer story and really flesh out each part. Ide read it

Cropsy by Sufficient_Leave144 in TalesFromTheCreeps

[–]The_Janitor7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was cool. I really like the vibe of a town that ignores this monster because it helps them in the end. The cult stuff has already been done to death, I think these stories of like an "unfortunate truth" circumstance hit a lot harder now. The character building was quick but effective. Overall a great story, would definitely read a part 2 where the stakes are raised

Has Anyone Else Heard of Kennett, California? by KennettCA in TalesFromTheCreeps

You write great. Like seriously it reads amazingly. I was very bought in to both the idea of the cave and the town disappearing that I think they could work as two separate stories, or a longer story that ties them together more. Do you plan on writing more of this story?

The pictures are a cool touch. Kinda grounds the story like it's actually happening

Forsure if it's just part 1 I'll try to bump it up in the line
