Hello! As part of the MHWA Week 2 Challenge, I have chosen to review this item from your port.

Theme/Subject Matter: Miscommunication/lack of communication

Originality/Creativity: This was a fun unique way to approach our given creative writing prompt. I like the idea of writing it as a fake news report.

Emotion/Impact: This hits home for me, as I have been this person from time to time. While putting it in the form of a fake news report lessens the pain, what it does is looks at reclusive behavior from the outside and touches on how it can affect others around.

My Favorite Part: Clara's parents still attempt to reach her every day. To me this shows that even when you have tried to block everyone from your life, those who truly care will still be there and still be trying to show you they love you and make sure you are okay.

My Suggestions: I don't really have any suggestions. I like your piece as-is.

Summary: Thank you for writing this piece in such a way as to look at this from an outsider's view. It helps put into perspective a little more what is happening when we ostracize ourselves from the world due to our mental problems.

Keep Writing! - Jenn
