Be Happy - This Is Your Day [E] Everyone should have a happy birthday. And most of them do. But some of them aren't. |
Hello! I am reviewing this short story for the Try Something New contest. I am rather interested in this family and these alien people. The father, Thovus, seems like a kind man who loves his daughter , Ciria, and his many lovers. You have great character creation here and such unique names, I really enjoyed them and this world you created. As for the young girl, it is understandable that she is upset that her father is off away for so long, has other families. It would be hard for anyone to understand those circumstances but I suppose if you are born in that kind of community you would understand and it would be the norm for you. A few comments on the technical aspects of your story. The line "...finish by latest job", should obviously say 'my latest job' and it is something easy that is overlooked. Also, try not to start a sentence with the words 'but' or 'and'. Use commas or semicolons when necessary or simply omit the words. This was a lovely little story and I hope you enter the contest again! Good luck and write on!
