Outstanding. I'm not sure if the use of onomatopoeia is deliberate but it is most definitely effective. What's amazing is that it's a story about sparklers that takes about the same time to read as a sparkler sparkles. Great work. 👍
Thanks, Alex. With so few words to play with, I found I needed to choose each one carefully, for its meaning but also for its sound & musicality — almost like a poem. At least that’s what I was trying to do.
I always appreciate your positive feedback and encouragement, but perhaps even more so this time, since this one is such a departure from what I normally do.
beautiful
Thanks so much!
Oh...Thats so sweet on the ending. I love everything about this, so tender. Thank you for writing this.
Thanks, Kayleigh - I'm glad you invited me to be part of this.
I had a feeling you’d absolutely smash it :D
