Hello! I'm wizzie and I have reviewed your "Doomsayer" as an assignment for Perfect 10.
{c/b}My First Impression: This short story was just what I like. It was intriguing! A little mystery throughout and a great deal of description and imagery to make me feel as if I were there watching. Reading through the first couple of paragraphs did more to clarify what was a slightly confusing beginning. I wasn't sure at first which individual was Cooley Jason, the first man who stepped off the bus of the second passenger. More than likely it was my train of thought that confused me, but once I placed everyone I really liked the beginning. The story was easy and flowing and each paragraph continued adding more detail. The wording was simple and straight-forward and easily understood and visualized. However, I feel the third paragraph was a bit long and stilted when describing the sign under Cooley's arm. It was a lot of description in one line. Perhaps two sentences to describe what was such a profound item in the story? Your description of Cooley was well accomplished. You described what my mind pictured as a veteran of some sort, an off-balance drinker foretelling what the future would hold. I would have liked to have known a little more about why he made his yearly journey to Setonsville to bring his message to the residents who looked forward to his visits, yet found him laughable. Thank you for the opportunity to read your story. Please take what I've offered and use it as you wish knowing that I hope to read more of your work. "Perfect 10 Sig"
