Thanks for entering.

*Note1* My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines.

*Reading* THE STORY

Middle Schooler Kimberly Morrison has become blind, a challenge that invites her to explore inward the type of person she wants to be.

*Smile* WHAT I LIKED

I liked how the author fit in the quotation inspiration quote into the story. The title was appropriate to the story.

*Star* POV NARRATION/TENSE

This is told in the third person limited from Kimberly's perspective. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately.

*Star* DIALOGUE

There's a good blend of dialogue and narration.

*Star* DESCRIPTIONS

There's enough to set the scenes.

*Star* SETTING

TIME: modern day
PLACE: urban setting

This is something that is clarified for the reader.

*Star* CHARACTERS

Kimberly

The story is a psychological examination of Kimberly's psyche, though I'm still not certain, as a reader, as to how or why temporary blindness overcame Kimberly, and perhaps that could be made a bit clearer to the reader. I thought Patrick was a good friend to Kimberly.

*Star* MECHANICS

I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to present the story.

*Star* PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS

For me, I thought this was a pretty heavy topic for a 12 year old in middle school, and I wasn't sure about the how the onset of the temporary blindness occurred. The opening engages the reader. Good luck in the contest.
