Skittering rats, dark, and claustrophobia: I’ll bet a reader or two cringes at this one.

Rodents of unusual size aside, this was a story about a real person in a real-ish situation, not a common sight on this site. And it’s well-done, too.

Quick question: Should “shoot” be “chute,” or do I just know my granary terminology well enough?

Going for reality here, and big oops on chute! Too many stories, not enough edit time!
