These are the ones for the last contest.

Sorry, I clicked on the wrong book. Did you win?

I'll look at the new lot.

Here's a writer to watch. I loved them. They are my favorite drabbles ever. Bar None!

They are accurate. Each 100 words with a beginning a middle and an end. They are unconnected, as they should be, and heaven forbid! they each have a little twist.

Way to pack 'em in there.

Double Trouble was my fave.
Good job. Hope you win.

Very nicely done! I felt as if an intellectual person was telling me a interesting story! Bravo!

I do, however, have some tiny critiques:

The first sentences of the entire book was confusing. I'm not sure where, exactly, you were trying to go with it, but I got the idea. It might be nice if you'd clear that little bit up in the beginning ;)

The second drabble was interesting. I LOVED how you started it, though it was kind of depressing in a up-beat way. There's a very strange feeling you put into the words... Nicely done!

And last, but by no means least, we come to Triple Threat.
This was took the hat for me. Amazing! I could see the man's wife sweating along side him with frustrated anger. It seemed like you froze time and took a slow motion video with words! Haha! So funny ;)
Loved it!

Great job!
You should really keep writing!

Thanks, felixthecat. I'm glad you like the stories.

In what way did that sentence throw you?
I'm curious! :)

Thanks, John! No, I'm not published. I have a novelette and a collection of short stories and poems on my website.

I also have dozens of vignettes on CreativeCopyChallenge.com

Thanks, tanya77. The third story is an attempt to show the addicted gambler, high on adrenaline, abandoning reason in favor of that euphoric rush (la petite mort.)

Basically, he makes some stupid plays at the Blackjack table. LOL

Thanks, dreamthief. I agree the second is dark, but the first was supposed to be a final happy epiphany. :)

Thanks, lazarus. I tried to convey death from three perspectives.
