"New Digs" by Ron Ripley: Absolutely no empathy was elicited for this sorry protagonist. I might say: poetic justice. However, I enjoyed the imagery, particularly the basement scenes, and I respectfully request an alternate ending, involving a certain inexplicable object protagonist discovers near the furnace. <smile>
"The Trip" by Sara Clancy: Okay. News reports and Fiction persuaded me years ago never to go camping. However: this tale is the stuff of Nightmares! Talk about Subterfuge! Talk about Monsters and Monstrosity! Will I ever sleep again??
"Monster of the Week" by David Longhorn: Echoes of "The Truman Show"! Mike's life is constantly in transit, an "episode" a week of battling some strange different monster, barely escaping with his life, mourning the loss of innocents. He has to use his clever wits to figure out the type of monster and how to stop it, and of course, no evidence remains. But now the serious question becomes: is he in the current episode, or will this be his "End"?
