this @agmoore Trapped re story was inspiration for my fiction story
Thank you. That is the best thing an author can read, that a piece of writing inspired another author.
This story is wonderful. It has all the earmarks of a classic. The fading away, at the last minute, works beautifully. The best part is that death--impervious to emotion--is moved to mercy. And it is a believable transition.
Beautiful story.
First, thanks for inspiring me this week, @agmoore. Ever since I read your story, I felt that death doesn't always win. And second, exactly: I wanted to humanize death, make it sensitive to pain. I had another ending, but I liked that one. Thanks again and best regards
