@gentlefem really? I think the flow of your stories are really wonderful. Your pacing is lovely; it keeps me really engaged in the story, but doesn’t feel rushed. And your scene writing is really well done. It has a good amount of detail, but there isn’t any over explanation that unnecessarily draws out the story progression. Your thoughts just seem to lead right into each other. @VeeKakapo is right, you are a very skilled writer.
