Aye, so I finally finished a short story I started sometime last year…it’s essentially a combination of a lot of things I’m not used to, including but not limited to: description, different character voice, trying to write in a different style, a semi-retelling allegory, etc, etc, etc, etc…. I wanted to practice a lot of stuff, take a break from my usual style of work…
Anyways, if you guys could maybe look it over and tell me what you think? Absolutely no pressure, of course. How was the style? Did it seem ok? Was the character voice okay?
Anyways, the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ujO0OKa66-BrMcSM6VDuKa5FmSUB9AA1/view?usp=sharing
And some tags…. (please don’t feel pressured to read)
