always help [18+] Ryan is getting chased by someone |
Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome Wagon" ! Greetings, Ari! For your first piece on here, this isn't bad. I like the fear you put into this as your character tries to evade her stalker, but you did a little more telling than showing*. And that ending almost seemed a bit humorous; how would you know NOT to wear heels if you were being chased by a stalker? In other words, it's not everyday you get chased by a stalker! See what I mean? But that's kind of irrelevant. You still made your point. One major niggle: 'I thought I could felt the warm breath, the back of my neck.' (I think this would be better: 'I thought I could feel the warm breath on the back of my neck.') My only other suggestion would be to lengthen this, but seeing as this is just your first piece and you wanted to get something in your portfolio, I wouldn't be too concerned about that. You have plenty of time to write other stories! Kee ponw ritin gon, Ari, and welcome to WdC!
