Started out great but the ending has become impersonal and I do not like it.

btw, [~Ghost Writer~] please don't quote your post with your entry inside the thread again. the wff moves slow enough that stories stay on the front two pages, and since i've already read it, i need to make sure i get all the other entries, which is easier to do when nothing is repeated. thanks!

Thanks! I've got some amazing feedback on my English work, and I've been told by a friend who's editing it for me, who has a PHD in English lit, majoring in short stories, that it would make an excellent novel, so there's that XD

all right, and results are in! remember, folks, if you want a breakdown of your score, let me know before wednesday and i'll get right on that. anyways, without further ado, check out this absurdly tight field! 1st: when to fight and when to let go by llavoie -- - 9 points 2nd: black sea by mintedstar/fur, dwindling flame by FåwnFrøst, and torn by Brownie - 8.5 points 5th: the tidecaller by » ѕнαdσω ⚔️ - 8 points 6th: forever shifting by кєѕтяєℓ - 7.5 points 7th: a butterfly's wings by [~Ghost Writer~] - 7 points wonderful work this week, everyone! i was really impressed by every entry, especially since everyone seemed very daunted at the beginning of the week. you rose to meet the challenge very well! lla, if you have other writing you'd like me to feature on the main page, let me know! new prompt will be up tomorrow, and i'll start doling out breakdowns to anyone who requests one tomorrow as well. good night, everyone, and great job!

Wooh! Nice job everyone. Could I have a breakdown of my score, Tues? I'm interested to see if I lost 0.5 points on grammar/spelling or 1.

The scores were actually all pretty close together. Like the highest was nine and the lowest was only seven? That's not that much of a huge difference.

sweet, that's fantastic! always good to hear that from someone with more experience than you have. It actually felt amazing to be told that XD I'm certainly not ready to shelve this particular story yet, so it's going to become the base for the humanised Return to Dust - which, vybthe way, now has an official working title.

This is the first time I've sat down and actually written something in years, so I've got nothing more to show, hah
Was not expecting first, so I am pleasantly surprised. Can I have a breakdown of my score?

I've never gotten below 3rd. Clearly I'm rusty. nah, look at how tight the field was! besides, you technically were in third. there was just a three-way tie for second is all. don't beat yourself up over it. everyone, i'll be doling out breakdowns while you all take a look at the new prompt!
