An aura of ominous peril, sets the scene for your magical tale. We hang on every word with bated breath, expecting the worst. You have an admirable ability to flesh out banal, mundane events to such an elevation that they become mysterious, suspenseful mega-events. Startlingly real characters romp across your page, forcing reader investment- fabulously done.
Elegantly structured, perfectly paced and enthralling. It’s such a truism that defenseless wild things bring out the best in people, even people who are unaware of their sensibilities. A beautifully written piece full of magic, marvel and humanity’s stunning ability to learn, change and grow.
Thank you for engaging with other writers in the community. We value your efforts.
Thanks so much. He is modelled on my very banal neighbour, although he is yet to grow at all 😂 I can see ways I would like to alter this one to flesh out the growthin more detail but didnt want you to endure reading another 1000 words. Appreciate your lovely lovely comment and the prompt that gave the old muse a nudge.
