Hello Broamalia, this is going well and your description is really considered.Perhaps consider giving the old woman and boy a name so that there isn't too much anonymity along the way.

'leapt' in the last line.

Hi Stephen, you've asked for some feedback - just had a read through your piece. Welcome to ABC firstly. There are some lovely poetic qualities to your prose, particularly the last two paragraphs. The little girl is intriguing and I want to know...

Laughed wildly at this. It's absolute truth and your characters are all so real on the page.  Never give your ideas away and erm, polite cough-cough, never knock Virginia Woolf. (She's a babe)

Whose favourite? Give 'her' a name so that the...

Posted on Sun, 07 Sep 2014

This is enjoyable darkness Phillip, not too heavy on the emotion with macabre elements that make it very unusual.  Agree about cutting the top two. If you start at 'Then there were' - you don't need to introduce the magic lantern because the poem...
