I have a request - just drop a note here as a comment, rather than a PM.

I've written a _very_ short story - 392 words - for the Horror contest.

You see, I decided to look at the audience, and try to build upon true horror, rather than using traditional elements. Unfortunately, the story might be a bit 'over the top' for a lot of the people here. (it's also written more in the older Ray Bradbury/Golden Age SF style, although it's not SF)

That being said, I would like two or three volunteers to have it sent to them as a PM, and give me a short amount of feedback. Even if the feedback is good, I may not leave it up for more than a month or so - I'm afraid it might be that upsetting. If it's bad, I won't post it at all.

The reason I'm asking for comments is that once three or four people have posted up asking for it, I won't have to send out PM's telling people "I've already sent it out to enough" :) I figure that if that many people want to see it, I'll just post the whole thing.
