So many great lines. This one just gave me chills "The bully started to say something back, but instead his jaw dropped open as he saw the shape pulling itself along the sand toward him." Eek! I need to forget this image asap. I also liked the line after that, "He doesn't say much anymore." Cool entry, Chris. Oh, baby, I like this! So many great lines. This one just gave me chills

Well written with some great lines and a superb ending. What more could we ask for? Top work and as Lee suggested, you write these "youthful" stories so well. Perfect! Chris, this is a great story.

A fantastic ending of revenge. I enjoyed the back forth between past and present, building the suspense of what was going to happen and I never imagined that. Excellent Chris. Totally demented stuff!

I actually wrote it specifically based on Lori's request for stories that pack a huge punch at the end. When I imagined Danny dragging half a body through the sand ... freaked me out, so I thought it might serve. Thanks guys - this one was a lot of fun to write.

Jeez, this is sick and cary stuff. I love the confessional tone of the piece, and the psychotic justification of revenge. Simply great writing. “I couldn’t figure out what he wanted to eat until now.”

It's the way you tell these kids ones, the feel nostalgia, it's like the energy of youth you feel when reading the youth parts of IT, or The Body. Stunning piece Chris. You always have to go one better than me lol First read of the day and it’s a belter.
