Where do you find the time and energy to roll out such consistent work? Thanks for sharing.
-
You write with real energy and commitment. Good job. Thanks for sharing.

I think this is one of the best stories from this anthology. It captures so well how awful a break-up can be and how the little things are the ones that hurt most, somehow. And I'm also glad you didn't leave out the hope at the end. Thanks for sharing. Great job.

The diary idea is a great one - so much potential for jealousy and misunderstanding. You put a sweet twist on it - you must have good heart! Thanks for sharing. I love a happy ending.

More Than We Bargained For
carringtonrj commented on Bill W's story chapter in More Than We Bargained For
Lots of interesting ideas here. Fascinating to wonder if they are really watching us from distant stars! I liked all the historical references and the glimpse into an ancient culture. But I want to know what the message was!!! Thanks for sharing. -
I can see how you were enjoying yourself writing this. Your enthusiasm for your ideas is infectious. I liked the details about the Mayan culture and was intrigued by the feminised Al. Thanks for sharing.

I like the idea of a café where your problems can be solved. Bringing in the mythical elements as you did gave it a nice twist. Thanks for sharing.
-
You mix the flashbacks and the present of the story very effectively. Nice job. Thanks for sharing.
-
I love that you are so involved with the original myths. You add a fun contemporary edge to the story, with the typical teen/parent relationship. Your descriptions are vivid and original. You are certainly a talented writer. Thanks for sharing this.

I think you handle this unusual situation very convincingly. It has a strange feel about it, almost like parable, this story, but I think it works well. Thanks for sharing.
-
An interesting first part. A strange, troubling situation. You build your central character carefully and you are brave in maintaining the silence of the other character - giving the story an uncanny, intriguing aspect. Nice job.
-
It's a fun style to write in and you do it well, with some really nice touches of language play. You are totally committed to your imagined world and you help us inhabit it. Thanks for sharing.

Clever and enjoyable twist on the theme. A dangerous woman, no doubt! Lots of smart little details on the way. Thanks for sharing. Always a pleasure to read your stories.

Great idea. And it really would turn nicely into a longer story - so many possibilities for episodes. Thanks for sharing.
-
Your usual expert job! Nice light, easy fluency about this piece. Hopeful! Thanks for sharing.
-
You set yourself a real challenge here and did a fine job. Something really different and curious for the anthology. Thanks for sharing.
-
This seems like a piece with attitude. You handle the present tense really nicely in places. You have a strong overall vision for the piece and write with power and contracted energy at the end. I was impressed. Thanks for sharing.

Gotta love a hedgehog! You shape this nicely. Nice job. Thanks for sharing.

A deceptively simple piece: nicely worked. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for this, KC. You're a star!

You write with total confidence and control, KC.

It's lovely to see you enjoying yourself with this story. Thanks for sharing.

You found a way to use your subtle, quiet style in service of a plot. Nice job. You examine the spaces between people really precisely. You explore the weight of words and how feelings are always just beyond explanation. Thanks for sharing.
-
You write with such assurance and imagine the characters and their situation with real conviction. You use the music deftly to counterpoint the emotions in your story. A thoughtful and intriguing chapter. Well done. Thanks for sharing.
