Very interesting way of looking at things for the future of the world. You covered quite a bit of time frame in a very short time. I believe your message is well thought out, be it right or wrong , seeing as it hasn't happened yet. I love a good futuristic story that still contains realism in it.

I really didn't see much as far as grammar mistakes or misspelling. I think your good on that but then I was too engrossed in reading to really pay attention. Your story kept me focused on what you were writing.

Great job! Keep that imagination going and write more. There will be those of us out here that will read it as soon as it hits the net. *ThumbsUp*

Sort of a bleak outlook for man kind, but a good start. It left me with a desire to read more, and I am sure that is what most writers want from readers. I know I do when I write something. I only noticed a few possible punctuation problems, but I'm no expert on it.

I liked the way you brought out the suspense, making me feel like there was hope a survivor would be found, only to bring it to the inevitable end that I was anticipating. However, I found it flowed well and was an easy read that was interesting to me, even though I'm not much of a sci-fi reader.

My heavens, I hope that isn't a true story. For the life of me, I couldn't stop laughing through this read. When I first began to read, it was very calm, like the start of a good movie that eventually turns into some kind of horror film or mystery. As I progressed, I began to chuckle, then laughed out loud drawing the attention of my two daughters who were trying to do their home work.

Curious after my explanation of why I was laughing, they wanted to hear more. I began to read, from the start mind you (I had to build up the same affect it had on me to get the reaction I was anticipating) clear to the end. They soon found themselves laughing with me. They both commented the story was great. At the end, one commented, "please don't tell me that it's true."

On a more productive note, I have to be honest and tell you, I was so engrossed that I didn't even notice any mistakes. Your story flows very well as it is without any changes. Upon a second read, there may be something I could find but I don't see a need in doing so. This story was completely enjoyable to me and my two daughters. You did an awesome job. *ThumbsUp*

This is a great story so far. I like the battle scene explanation and how Myrl chastised himself with his father's words. I was a bit confused in the second sentence though. It may be just me, but I'm not clear on who's ears were turning red with anger. A little rewording might help with that.

I saw a few places where some rewording or moving a sentence might help with the flow of the story more, but that is up to you. Over all I found this small teaser a great start to something more. It left me with the desire to see what else was going to happen, find out who was out to kill off Myrl's family and why. Keep going with this and I'm sure it will be read by others who feel the same way.

I experienced many emotions after reading this. First my heart felt sadness for those in that room. I felt like crying for the two young lovers who just confessed their emotions for each other. It all seemed so unfair. I couldn't even imagine the terror anyone would feel in such a situation as that. Next was despair for all of them. A feeling of hopelessness from being in a trap you can't get out of without some kind of loss, can only be described as taxing on anyone.

I felt anger toward those responsible for doing something so horrible. Again, I couldn't imagine what would cause someone to do such a thing. I realize that I am a bit naive in many ways, and psychologist have many different diagnoses to describe such behavior, but I can't understand any of it. Life in general means more to me than I do to myself. Maybe I'm wrong in feeling like this, but it is just how it is for me.

I even felt a deep sorrow for those committing such a terrible crime. I can only try to imagine what drove them to do such a thing.

In the end, I felt sadness again for the families of the victims. All the questions they would have without any real explanation that can justify this sort of act.

To sum it up, I felt sadness, despair, hopelessness and sorrow. If you were looking to get this from a reader, then you accomplished what you set out to do. I applaud your efforts in writing this, it was a great story and the kind of story I'm not that good at, because I have a hard time facing the evils of the world let alone writing about them. If there were any mistakes to be mentioned, I didn't notice them during the two times I read this. I couldn't read it a third time or I would have started to cry for Tom and Sarah. Excellent job.

Since this was titled 'What does love create part II', I thought it best to read part I first to get a clearer understanding of your meaning behind the question.

I soon found out that this is more than a question. There are many questions and suggestions within both. The more I read, the more I found myself trying to answer the questions. Not so much for the answer, but for my own piece of mind.

I find this intriguing. Thank you for the challenge to think.

As far as mistakes, there are few that I noticed, misused word (you wrote their and I think you meant there), a couple of commas missing but I am probably wrong about that.

Keep writing so we can read.

Well hello there. Nice to finally get a moment to finally greet you. I'm sort of 'a behind the scenes' sort of person when it comes to groups like CSFS, so please forgive the lateness of this introduction. Not to say, I am of any importance to the group itself, I just do things in my own time. I find life too short to be in a hurry all the time. *Cool*

Anyway, I try to review each new member when I get a chance, and for some reason, the title of this caught my eye. I have a friend named Angela and a letter to the other woman would be just up her alley, considering her cheating ex-husband. Or so I thought when I first read it. Boy was I mistaken. It never crossed my pea brain to think the letter would be from the cheater.

Well, I would have to say, this would scare the crap out of my friend. LOL, not really. She would enjoy it as much as I do. It a great play on words. I found myself looking back to the picture as I read with that feeling of 'OH MY GOD!' thing when I read Steven King or Wes Craven. Nicely done. There is no mention about Angela's personality or back ground what so ever, but I can't help but feel sorry for her.

Again, well done. I will read more of your work when I find time.

Keep writing so we can read it.

Very sad reflection. I like the deep meaning of loss. It brings out a remorseful feeling that draws on my heart.

I noticed a couple of typos but otherwise, there wasn't much else I noticed. This reads like a poem but is written in paragraph format. You might want to change that, but then again, you may have wanted it that way. Regardless, it doesn't take away from it.

This is a great short read. Keep up the great work.

As I have stated before, I don't read poetry much, but after reading some of the work I have found here on WDC, I am beginning to learn a deep respect for it.

This poem is one that pulls that respect from my heart. I think any woman can relate to the depth of it. I like the reference between sin and the many things that were actually lost from the encounter. Perhaps I am interpreting too much in it, or the poem may have reminded me of my own digressions, I'm not sure. But it definitely brought out many emotions from me as I read it. If that is what you were looking to get from the reader, you obtained it from this one.

Great job. I look forward to reading more of your work.

This is a great start. Some missing words and commas but nothing too bad. Once you re-read it, you'll find them.
I like all the characters, they are each exciting in their own way, with a touch of mystery added. I hope there is more about Theresa. I'm going to read the entries in your portfolio.

Keep writing.

Ooo, that sent a tingle through my body at the end. Very nice story, sad but intriguing all the same. I liked the subtle references made to biblical happenings in regard with the happenings at present within the story. I felt like crying but at the same time felt calm.

I think there are some missing commas but other than that, I was enjoying the story and didn't notice anything else.

Great story.

An interesting read to say the least. I'm not the best at reading work like this. I find it a bit difficult and cryptic. I did, however, find it a delightful story full of all the elements of a good tale. The open ending leaves you free, as the writer/creator, to do as you please, whether it be to write more or leave it as is.

I liked all the characters very much. Molly reminded me of the heroin from 'Dudley Doright' (can't remember her name at the moment). Although Molly is portrayed as being sunny and bright, when faced with strife, she becomes whiny and loses confidence. Pol is a righteous hero in his convictions, willing to give his life for the one he loves. Jack plays the part of his side kick rather well. All in all, it is a great story.

The only suggestion I might make would be to work on grammar a bit so the sentences flow better. There are a few missing commas and such but nothing some proof reading wouldn't take care of.

Great Job!

This story is very moving to me. I'm sympathetic to anyone who loses their loved ones, but this was very emotional. As far as any correction, I see many sentences where you use the word 'and' more than once or twice. Some restructuring of those sentences might help to make the grammar flow better. I saw one place where a comma was needed, but over all, this is well written. Good job one bringing out the emotions.

I found this very amusing and enjoyable. Your description of the main character was very informative, making me feel as though I know him, or someone like him. I'm sure many can relate to that. When I reached the end, I was sad, but still chuckled. What happened was inevitable.

As far as mistakes, I'm not the best to review, because my own stories need help. But I did see some places where there are missing commas that would help the sentences flow. In some places I would have placed a period and started a new sentence. But that is just me. Anyway, it was very enjoyable. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Well written account of what happened. You have shown the personality of each main character, giving the reader a chance to decided for themselves who they want to root for. Also, the concern of the two mothers easily detected, as well as, the lack of concern of the third mother. You have also given points of interest when leaving a child alone. I found this piece very interesting and wishing there was more, so I could see what happened. Good job.

Very amusing and delightful. It reminded me of a conversation that might have taken place between a Dungeon Master and an over enthusiastic new player. I giggled quite a bit, getting strange looks from the other occupants in the room.

I did notice there were some grammar and punctuation mistakes, as well as, missing words. Taking some time and going back over this will show you where, or have a friend help you with it. Sometimes, another set of eyes can make the difference in the flow of a sentence. Overall, the story itself kept me going to find out more, so even those mistakes didn't affect it much. I'm not the best at this myself, so you might want to get another opinion.

The main character has a child like quality that is almost sickening but at the same time endearing. The secondary main character was fairly predictable with his humor. I could tell he was just being a jerk at the expense of the first character, but drawing in the participation of the crowd added to the comic relief factor.

Its a good story and I would read more if and when you post it.

To be honest, I don't usually read much poetry, but the title caught my eye. I like the subtle emotion of the speaker. She lets the reader know her true feelings toward the situation, while still expressing her acceptance of a past love who isn't willing to let go. I detect a bit of smugness also toward the new wife.

I'm sorry I can't really help you with corrections, I'm not that good at poety, so I don't feel like I have the right to criticize someone else. I do, however, encourage you to keep writing. I liked this and think you are doing a great job of capturing the reader's interest.
