The uninhibited voice that blurts out inner thoughts is such fertile ground for comedy and drama. Much more to come from this story, I'm sure.
The dialogue is credible and the pacing works well.
Keep going!
Merry Christmas...

A happy ending and a right palava by the sounds of it. It's as though fate intervened to help when you noticed those plane tickets going. [Lullaby by the Cure is about a nightmare involving a spider trying to eat Robert Smith. Hmmmmm]

Beautifully paced.
It takes patience to keep going for so long and maintain a high standard.
The searching online for answers certainly resonates with me. It's funny how quickly you go from thinking that it's only you that's ever...

That's an emotive piece written with such compassion.
I didn't know Julia but can touch and feel how special she was through your words.
I guess that can be the gift of writing - a release, a way to remember, a monument to someone...

I like the way the poem moves from grey and brooding to insular and snug.
A season in a nutshell.
Beautifully done, Rhiannon.
