*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*


Hallo!
I visited your portfolio because it is your WDC Anniversary. The title and brief description interested me so I clicked on this item.

This concept has a lot of potential.
I like the idea of the child astral traveling and the mother having a collection of items resulting from this wandering.

I know flash fiction has its limitations, but I somehow felt that the potential hadn't quite been met in this story. Even within the word count, there is scope to do more - give some sort of twist or add something ... ?

Also, another thing that jarred me was the amount of 'telling' in the story. Things like 'approached her daughter's bed' seem a bit redundant.

This could be a really great story. If you work on it some more I'd be happy to re-visit it and re-rate it!

Suggestions:
'Amy's grasped' - Amy's grasp
'sweet heart' - sweetheart (one word)
'book shelf' - bookshelf (one word)
'about it," She ' - no need for a capital 'S'

Happy WDC Anniversary
Write On,
Sonali
