 |  | Escapism  [13+] "Don't you understand? When you give up your dream, you die." A "What's Your Line Entry"  |
| (4.5)| Thank you for participating in the What's Your Line Contest! Because you referenced my contest in your entry, I am here to review your entry as promised. My review is intended to be helpful and encouraging. Please accept it in the spirit it is given.  ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** Prompt:"Don't you understand? When you give up your dream, you die." Flashdance (1983) First impression: Wow. My exact first word after reading this story. I loved the soft imagery that started this story. Vividly painted, it is the heart and foundation of this story. I had no idea if or even how the story was to turn, but when it did, it was such a sharp turn that at first I was not quite sure where the softness had gone. I thought that the idea that the main character would literally die if he gave up his soft dream was genius. The short roller coaster of emotion with this short was also awesome. The entire format of this story is what polished it off for me. It started out soft and clean and ended the same way. For me this short gives me the same feeling that a poem with the same aesthetic would. Does this story reference the prompt?: Yes Suggestions: None. I feel that this short is polished and complete. Final thoughts:This story takes you on a short trip to a place where your dreams could save your life. This story is unpredictable and a joy to read. This concludes my review. Thank you for participating in my contest and for allowing me the pleasure of reading and reviewing your work. I wish you continued success with your writing and in life. Good luck with the contest! Write on, read on, rate on!~ Taryn
