Novel Treatments / Devotee - Part 1
Version 1

DEVOTEE       To elicit any memory of my past, I claw through thoughts shrouded by time, extracting fragments until I can piece together actual events. Each day passes by blurred by routine, immutably the same as the last. And with each lost day, it is harder to recall events that were once so vivid I couldn’t even sleep without dreaming of them. I write so that I remember each link in the chain that has left me where I am today.       All o...

I've decided I'm going to start using this blog thing and make use of the fact that I'm completely anonymous and just journal out every good/bad/ugly thought I have and maybe it will make me want to write, maybe it wont, but at least I'll get it all down and MAYBE, just maybe, someone will say that they feel crazy too.  I feel weird today.  I can't sleep, and today I made the concious decision not to wear a seat belt.  I felt guilty half way down Baker, so I ended up putting o...

Short Story / Will and the Wisp

Will and the Wisp Why does he call me father? I guess towards the end I was more of a father than a son to him. The last thirty years of my life I felt imprisoned by obligation, shackled by the kindness a father bestows on a son. The resulting resentment buried me in guilt. Some days are so cloudy I hesitate before taking any steps, fear and uncertainty blinding every move. I guess that is to be expected, I only buried him a week ago. Maybe that’s why he keeps appearing to me. He stands in t...

I wish I could tell you something helpful, so please feel free to ask for a refund for my 'critique', but I just really like your story. It flows so well, and it's interesting...and I'm not even into this genre. You can really tell you've worked hard on it, but it flows so well. I can't wait to read more!! There's nothing bad I can say about it. I love how you've developed the characters.
Children's / The Gold Coin
I loved your idea and your images. I thought it was a very special story. You have some problems with tense and punctuation, and if you fixed those things it would read easier and be more presentable for publication, in my opinion. I really liked 'heart full of hope'. It's a simple sentence, but I just think it worked well. Thanks for sharing it with me!

"but Mayan black for all of that" - that read so pretty! What did you mean by 'disguised with ochre'? It made me think of earth, which I liked, but I didn't know if you just meant the colors. I really liked the last four lines. But I don't know why I didn't like 'stole their culture'. I had to read that sentence over and over, but I just didn't think it sounded as pretty. Actually, I had trouble with the lines surrounding that.I am going to try to reread it, since I have so much trouble with ...
