Ellen saw a blackbird singing to her even when she closed her eyes at night.


*Notev* My reviews are intended to be helpful and encouraging, not hurtful in any way. *Smile* Use what you feel works for you, and leave the rest.

*Vine2* Title
Blackbird Sings in the Dead of Night
*Thumbsupl* No suggestions! I believe titles are important, drawing readers into reading a story or poem. Your title does exactly this. Good job!


*Vine2* First Impression
         Very impressive! Nicely written. I felt intrigued the entire time. In fact, I would love to read more! You hooked me, for sure. *Hook* This would make an excellent prologue!

*Vine2* What I Liked
*Burstv* Your dialogue is excellent!
*Burstv* Visuals are clearly portrayed and easy to follow.
*Burstv* Great flow of words; reads smoothly throughout
*Burstv* You followed the rules to a T!
*Burstv* The ending is awesome. Like I mentioned earlier, this would make a great prologue! If you write more, let me know because I will definitely read it!

*Vine2* Suggestions
         Absolutely none! *Smile*

*Vine2* Final Thoughts
This is a fine piece of polished writing. But I want more! *Wink* The ending has me wide-eyed and wondering about all the possibilities from then on. Oh my goodness, my mind is reeling! Once again, Excellent!.


Have a great day and...*Quill*
