RE: Family Affliction

in The Ink Well2 years ago

You write some very effective descriptions. We see Ronnie chopping wood. We feel his fear and confusion. We feel his dread as he realizes that now he must bear the curse inherited from his father and grandfather. As a writer, you have set a challenge for yourself: how to share Ronnie's sense of unreality and confusion without confusing the reader. All in all you do it rather well, though at times it is hard to sort what is happening from what is in Ronnie's mind. This is easier to portray in cinema than on the written page. I applaud you for taking on such a difficult task.

Keep writing. You seem to enjoy it and you do have a way with words.

Gracias ma'am I appreciate your encouraging comment.... truly I looked for a better way to align those thoughts from the actual reality I could really use a post to enlighten me ...it would be of great help!

It took me two to three days to pile it up!

Thanks for reading!
