Hello, StephBee!

Happy Writing.Com Anniversary month! I saw this award-winning story posted in your news feed and marked it in my calendar to review later this month and now the time has come. I hope you enjoy this celebration of your time here and find the review uplifting.



INITIAL IMPRESSION / OVERVIEW:
Congratulations on your win of the Daily Flash Fiction with this surprising romantic story of yours! Well done!

You kept me riveted and I read straight through to the end. Great way to catch my attention, keep it, and make me want to read more of your writing too. Well done!



MORE DETAILED FEEDBACK:

Your two hundred and ninety four word story had a setting, tension, characters, and a conflict. I love that you fit all that into such a short flash fiction piece.

I liked that there's a bit of a cliffhanger at the end (did she really leave the key on purpose? How does he even know where she lives? Will his visit be welcome? Will she even be home? Maybe she went to a neighbor's or something because she couldn't get inside her own place. These are a few things I wondered.

I loved your sense of romance and that the guy respected her when she called a halt to things, at least temporarily (referring to the halt).

I didn't notice any spelling or grammatical mistakes (or mistakes of any kind) in your flash fiction story.



IDEAS TO MAKE YOUR PIECE STRONGER:
I would love to have something great to share here, but I think it's great as it is. Well done!


CONCLUSION:
You have a great writing style and sense of story telling and I enjoy reading your writing, even if I rarely review it. Well done!

Thank you for sharing your time, romantic spirit, and writing with the Writing.Com community!

May love, joy and peace be yours in abundance!
