This was sometimes really great, and other times kind of meh. Some of the stories definitely didn't do it for me, but I think on the whole this was a really cool exercise. I was well versed with the concept of drabbles (I was a teenager in the 2000s who read fanfiction, eek!) and know how hard they can be, so major props to the writers. Here are a few that stood out for me, that I think will definitely encourage me to read more by those authors: Disregarded Advice by Ike Hamill, The Dead Thing by Lisa Morton, Lightbulb by Matthew Brockmeyer, A Demonic Pact by Billy San Juan, The Grave by Amy Cross, The Beauty of the Seas by Kevin J. Kennedy and Selfie by Rick Gualtieri. Absolute favourites were the two drabbles by Lisa Vasquez, Night Terrors and Vermillion. 

Overall, definitely recommend and will be reading the other ones in the series. A heads up - this was available on kindle unlimited!
