You're a natural story teller Annie - but really should I be surprised??
Great story again ... and sorry we've been absent all week - have loved Lilly's phone messages. Got the magazine finally done (yay I'm free!), Dylan survived Kindy ( he loved it and has loads of confidence apparently!) so will catch up next week - will have to book Lilly in for a date!! Go girl!!
Wonderfully told, and I love the ending. I half expected that this would be tragedy.
A really good read, and a clever take on the prompt. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
The wording in this is wonderful Annie. I especially like the "peace of the garden" because it evokes strong images in double-meanings.
This grabbed me and pulled me in. I admit I was a little disappointed by the ending... I would have preferred something a little more bold, I guess. Not necessarily tragic, but something with a little more punch to it.
The writing is strong and vivid and suggestive. Nicely done.
Despite the ending, I liked the story.
