CIARA HEARD THE SCREAMS.
Prompt: The deafening screams echoed through the cold night.
The cold chilled my fingers into painful numbness, the cold seeped into my toes and spread painfully all over my precious feet.
I found the darkness strange, something just wasn’t right. I continued to watch my feet take careful steps through the long frosted grass, when suddenly something flew at me with great speed. I shrieked.
The deafening screams echo through the cold night. It was the type of scream that made your blood run cold. I moved my hand down to touch my leg. “Oh no!”
My leg ached, no matter how I moved it the pain was unbearable.

Dear Ciara,
I’m on the edge of my seat! You left it at a cliff hanger and I want to read more! This story fits the prompt amazingly, in such a creative way!

Dear Ciara,
This story is truly breathtaking, I feel like I am about to fall over! I want to know what happens next so bad, I am literally imagining everything in my head! Your description was on point and made me feel like I was standing right next to the character. This story was amazingly well written and I am very impressed. You did a great job putting the words in order and really described everything so well I can’t even explain it. This passage is more well written then a lot of books I have read! I can tell you have the writing skills of a master and it takes some adults a long time to get words and comparisons like you have! This story flows nicely and is so terrifying my head hurts! You did really a nice job writing this and I can’t wait to see what you write next! Keep writing and you will go very far!

Dear Ciara
I really liked your story
It was exactly one hundred words and it was gripping.
Make sure your story is past tense but other wise,
Awesome!
