I like the way the poem's structure emphasises the ambivalence, the simultaneous need for and fear of dependence. The poem also makes you wonder about the dynamics of the relationship, and what the 'other half' thinks about it. A good read.

Perfumes are so evocative.

Absolutely love the take on the IP, and the concept of the 'it' girl. It's the simple things that often bring most satisfaction

Posted on Mon, 21 Mar 2016
I like the fact that there is no compromise in this - it is a genuine shock when there is no rescue for Dawn. The crows convey so well the sense of a primeval power at work, and I felt the story was at its best in the passages describing that...

Reads much smoother and if anything even creepier! Absorbing and disturbing.

I really like this - very descriptive and I like the circular construction. Genuine feeling of malice and the pacing works really well.
I think it needs a bit of proof reading - there are some bits I had to read over a couple of times to...

Hi, welcome to ABC Tales.
