Could have been a stunning story, were it not for elementary errors, particularly basic spelling.
Get an editor!
It was a stunning story, even with the very few spelling errors, which did not detract from the story, or the end result. Too bad that not very many people have the luck to find somebody who can help them move forward from where they are. Too bad that not very many people can make a difference in one life.
The spelling errors really bug me. Two layers of spellcheck and a couple of proofreads, and mistakes still slipped through. Spellcheck doesn't help when the misspelling is still a legitimate word, though.
I really disappointed myself on that front. I appreciate it being pointed out, though. Thank you.
I will be submitting an edited version with hopefully all mistakes corrected
I think it would have somewhat spoiled the end, but I definitely think this story belongs more to Romance than Reluctance. Very nice, actually. :-)
I originally had it under Anal, but I don't think it was a very good fit. I'm not 100% happy with it as Reluctance, either. None of the classifications seemed good enough.
It wasn't really my idea of a romance, as such, but that's just my personal standards for what is romantic, or at least what I would go so far as to call romantic.
I appreciate the input, though. It's food for thought in the future.
What an amazing story! I was looking for something a bit more darker/ brutal but these are my favorite; when you come across something so unexpectedly! <3
Please write an epilogue, a sequel, a something! You can't leave it there :'( An erotic focus is not necessary (you know best), just something to give us a little hope of a happier ending.
P.S. I read this a few days back and I can't get that last image out of my head.
I don't get the ending at all. Can someone please explain the ending.
Hmm. I don't really want to explain it publicly, though I'm not opposed to explaining it individually.
I really enjoyed this story.. Loved your description of this frail, shy barefoot girl. Makes me wish for her in my own life.
Sad ending, but it fits perfectly.
Thank you for sharing this with us!
