RE: Uber Story Time (Urban Legend Flash Fiction Contest)
Terrific story! I love that you modernized the old tale and the way it was told in the kind of conversational tone a real YouTuber would use. And thank you so much for citing your inspiration for the gender switch, which was also really a breath of fresh air!
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. The youtuber aspect was an experiment I wasn't sure would work the way I wanted... but I guess it did! Yay! :D
That one writer's gripe with the way the story is commonly told really pushed my decision to make a retelling of this one. So I guess critics should never stop complaining, lol.
Plus, if it's really true that there are no gender-swapped version, I couldn't resist the opportunity to be the first to do it! Oh... now I understand those commenters that only comment the word "first"...
