I really love your short story. I know I am your mom but I think it's really great. I like the teasers here but I think that your readers would appreciate the whole thing and maybe even have some constructive criticism to help make it even better.
Your mom is right. The story idea is terrific. Saba and I can't wait to read the whole thing -- either just a bit at a time as you write it or when the story is completely finished. And you'll have to tell us if you want us to make comments or suggestions or just say if we see any typos. It's not going to be easy to write, I suspect, but you've made an amazing start with your outline. Go for it! And when is it due??
Omi and Mom-
Thank you for commenting and the great advice.
Yes, I want constructive critisism and yes, if I make mistakes or typos or grammatical errors or something doesn't sound right, I want you to tell me about them in a comment or in an email so I know that I should fix those. The final draft has to be typed and ready to be turned in by Monday. Tell me what you think!
Please be honest.
Natasha.
