You know, I don't know if you noticed, but "The Shattered Sunshine" is very different from your other stories. I discovered your profile because of it, and I found this story so disappointing, but I'm glad I gave your other stories a chance because they were wonderful and so different from this one. The biggest difference is that I feel Shattered Sunshine is very slow-paced; it has a lot of text and little dialogue, and that makes it very boring. I read and read, and it seemed like it wasn't going anywhere, and I didn't connect with the characters because there was no dialogue. Your other stories change that; they are completely different. I don't know if you notice that too.
