Cloud Chatter [E] Some little known facts about clouds. |
My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY A low level cloud watching a baseball game finds an unusual cloud hanging low. WHAT I LIKED I loved the creativity and imagination used in this flash fiction. Not only that, the character voice is spot on. I smiled the entire time I was reading this. POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the third person limited from Fiona's perspective. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately. DIALOGUE There's a good blend of dialogue and narration. The dialogue drives the story. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Rising on thermals, falling with downdrafts, moving in every direction of the compass, until they find an area with enough moisture content to build their cloud persona again." -- This is precisely what clouds do, and I could picture myself hanging out in the stands of the baseball game, looking up, and trying to figure out the clouds out to see if they would rain. SETTING TIME: modern day PLACE: baseball game This is something that is clarified for the reader. CHARACTERS Fiona Fiona's just hanging out, just trying to stay moist. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening engages the reader and pulls them into the story. The title fits the story. A nice comical read that will put a smile on your face. An Angel Army Review
