Going Nowhere Just For Show [ASR] This Cramp prompt said "write a story using some words". Nobody said it had to make sense. |
Greetings, THANKFUL SONALI Happy Diwali!! I am reviewing this because I am discovered it on Read & Review and really enjoyed it. First of all, my reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest. The Positives/What I Liked There's nothing like reading a little nonsense once in a while, and sometimes, even to write it! What a fun little story. I enjoyed this immensely. And it truly does have a message woven through it. I felt you were very creative with the prompted words given in this round of The Writer's Cramp: ignore, plastic, space heater, itinerant, and abalone aren't the easiest combination of words to be included into one short story, but you have done a fantastic job! This story reminds me of little tales I might have read as a child...those with a hidden lesson at the end. You have a definite style to your writing that I find clever and fascinating. Anything I've ever read by you, is well-written. I also like that you use a larger font size. Your characters, Buvana and Sonali, are fun to read about in their raining dilemma. The fortune teller was quite interesting, too, with her clever predictions. I really got a kick out of the following prediction of Percival, the cat: "You'll write pawetry about him. You'll immortalise him in many tails, short and long. You'll pour out your felines on paper, and get everyone emotional. You'll soon be playing cat-and-mouse with great fame, my dear." Suggestions/Comments to Consider I have no suggestions. This was a very enjoyable read! Final Thoughts I think it would be fun if you wrote more short tales of Sonali and her friend Buvana! Great work! Have a great day and... K e e p on W r i t i n g ! Cubby ")
