Just read your short story a couple of minutes ago...I found myself reading continuously until I finished. You have an amazing talent to bring the reader along for the journey regardless of genre(poetry,short story,novels). My only request would be for your muse to somehow "bless" the readers of BookRix with more of them. Your artistry is beyond words and I truly look forward to reading and posting on all of your work.

Awesome! Was a wonderful take on how people live in their own little worlds , with out thinking there was any other explanation for the world they live in. I liked it very much. Thank You!

This one was actually my very first attempt at a short story. In fact, I think it's the first story I posted here. For that reason, I'm always amazed when people tell me they liked it, lol! Very cool...
The irony. My first book... I picked yours. Happy Dance...xx
Ha! Too funny! "D
This book made me chuckle. I love the snarky straight-laced main character and the humor in the story. Madam, I am intrigued:)

I enjoyed reading it. Although this could be developed into a longer novel, as a short story is great. You're good at writing them :). From plot to grammar, everything was great.

This is great! Where did you get the idea??
I love how you kept us hanging as to exactly what the main character was exterminating until the end. Way to keep us in suspense...
And I too would like to know if the pesky creatures return... :)

I am so glad that I found this in the swap thread. It's hilarious! I couldn't help but laugh at the "Ghost Busters" part. Your narrator's voice, sarcasm and line of work kept me turning the pages for more. You should really continue this into a longer story. I would love to learn more about inter-dimension creatures and what it takes to exterminate them. Does she go back? Or could this job escalate into something that could... mehr anzeigen

That was the first short story I ever wrote, which I posted shortly after joining BookRix over five years ago, so I'm delighted that you enjoyed it so much! Thank you!
