Please remember that the following comments and observations are only my opinions. Take what you can use, but never be shy about discarding what you cannot.

What I like: the idea and creativity of this story is good. The introduction of the three men needs some more details added: who are they; where did they come from; what happens next.

Opening: ets up the scene and characters well. The story flows good from here, and the reader is brought into the action.

Plot: as I see, there is an evil creature, and its desires are to destroy. Jenna is saved by some strange men. The creature and its actions are developed well. The second part of the story is confusing and could use more development.

Hook: I was hooked from the start and left with questions at the end.

Style and Voice: easy reading style and flows well.

Scene/Setting: the setting is well done. It has a scary atmosphere.

Characters: Jenna is well done, and the interactions of the characters is good.

Dialogue: I like the dialogue, and it advances the story.

*BalloonR* Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome Wagon! *BalloonR*


Please remember that the following comments and observations are only my opinions. Take what you can use, but never be shy about discarding what you cannot.

What I like: There are some good surprises in this dark horror.

Opening: There is a peaceful scene without any peace. This contrast sets the reader up for a good story.

Plot: revenge - the idea is slowly revealed. The story turns darker as it moves along. The idea is well presented.

Hook: the part with the worm creature is real creepy. I also enjoyed the effective use of certain words: shining promise; sparkled and shone in the morning sunlight. - as opposed to darkness; Here in the dimness of our living room, it seemed nothing but dull. - this is well done.

Style and Voice: an easy flowing style mixed with a twisted mind makes for good horror.

Scene/Setting: it is a dark scene revealed step by dark step.

Dialogue: I like the dialogue. It advances the story.

Characters: The character is well done. Her interactions with her circumstances are well done.

Area(s) for improvement: I have some suggestions. notes

Please remember that the following comments and observations are only my opinions. Take what you can use, but never be shy about discarding what you cannot.

Overall impression: The supernatural tone of story is enhanced by the confusion of the main character and the detailed descriptions. The story starts off in first person then switches to third person. I don't see that it is necessary to use that.

Characterization: Winston tells the story. More details of his character would be good. I got that he was a soldier and his mother was dead. His confusion comes through loud and clear. His account is detailed and interesting.

Dialogue: Good dialogue that advances the story.

Please remember that the following comments and observations are only my opinions. Take what you can use, but never be shy about discarding what you cannot.

Overall impression: This is like the slice of a dialogue as part of a longer story. As dialogue it is very good. The story element reveals the nature of the relationship between Savannah and Eric. I like the use of internal thought, and I think that even more could be added. I would suggest a few more internal tags be added.

Characterization: Savannah and Eric. I like this interchange between characters. It tells the story effectively.

Dialogue: The dialogue reads naturally and is realistic.
