I don't think there's anything wrong with a more conclusive result to a flash fiction piece. Rather than spark my imagination as to what might have happened, I'm left with a rather sour taste in my mouth. Yes, the story up to the point where time ran out was good, but even another sentence or two could have gotten a little more wrapping up done. Mmmm.. overall, I give this story a B-.

The giant was a typical teenager. I don't agree with my father, so I'm going to do the opposite of him even if it gets me killed. Over all it was very entertaining. I kept thinking fee-fi-fo-fum! Throughout the whole story. This was an amazing story. The giant was a typical teenager. I don’t agree with my father, so I’m going to do the opposite of him even if it gets me killed.
