Our Cottage Now for Sale is a tender and beautifully written piece. You capture the quiet ache of letting go — not just of a house, but of the memories and lives that once filled it. The cottage feels almost alive, breathing through every creak and whisper, holding the echoes of love, laughter, and time.

Your writing balances nostalgia and acceptance with grace. I especially liked how the setting mirrors emotion — the emptiness of the rooms reflecting the bittersweet calm of moving on. It’s understated yet deeply moving.

If I could suggest one thing, perhaps a slightly deeper glimpse into the emotions of the person leaving would make it even more powerful. Still, the piece stands strong as it is — gentle, human, and full of quiet truth.

Beautifully done, Athelia.

Review of Fatal Attraction  Open in new Window.

Dear Sinbad,

Your piece Fatal Attraction is a powerful exploration of emotion and consequence — a story that lingers in both the heart and the mind long after the last line is read. From the very beginning, your writing draws the reader into a fragile world where desire meets remorse, and where every decision echoes louder than the one before it. You capture that delicate space between passion and downfall with striking honesty.

What impressed me most was your attention to emotional truth. The characters are not just figures in a story; they breathe, doubt, and ache. You allow the reader to experience their conflict without forcing judgment — that’s what gives your work its depth. The pacing is sharp and steady, tension building like a quiet storm until it finally breaks with a mix of sorrow and clarity.

I also admire how your prose balances simplicity and richness. You say much with few words — a quality that gives the story weight. Every sentence feels intentional, as though crafted to reveal another layer of the human condition. The themes of guilt, temptation, and inner conflict are handled with maturity, making the story both relatable and haunting.

If anything, I wished to see a little more of the supporting characters, perhaps a glimpse deeper into their motives and pain. Yet even with that, the story stands complete — concise yet full.

Sinbad, Fatal Attraction is not just a story; it’s an emotional study in how we falter, how we seek, and how we sometimes pay the price for both. It’s a beautiful, tragic reflection of being human — and I sincerely commend you for it.
