A RETAIL HORROR


You work the meat counter of a Meijer supermarket.

And there is a customer, who will order increasing amounts of ground beef.


Handle It is a short story, about 20 minutes to read, presented in Twine. It is not a story with choices, but one where you must always click onto the next slide. Even if you don't want to.

All response is lovingly welcomed, I'm very proud of this piece and am very excited to share it with others!

Cover art provided by my ever wonderful partner Daz!

Really clever use of hypertext to maintain suspense. I'm willing to bet anyone who has worked a retail job will find this story equal parts horrifying and cathartic~

Loved it!  Not my usual genre, but I was totally invested.  I rather like the clicking through the pages  - makes it more suspenseful.

Thank you so much! I'm really glad the click-through feature has worked as well as I hoped!
