I think about writing more than I write, but call myself a writer as opposed to a thinker.

    I won't comment on anything poetry because I don't know the genre well enough to be constructive. Junkie is obviously a winner because it's already done that, so it's safe. There is so much you can do with Skinwalker that I would opt for that one if you want to work with it some more. Nothing vs The Longest Night, my choice is Nothing. The ending is superb.

    You have so many great options to enter!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Haiku- Labor is the best! I loved it. Why? I liked them all but the skating one was a bit confusing with the punctuation and trying to figure out what happened (I saw your answer in a comment though and love it haha) and Forest Fire was missing something for me, I think I assumed it would be about forest fires and the โ€œcycleโ€ of how seeds spread and rebirth happens, and there just wasnโ€™t room in the haiku for all that haha

    About to check out Skinwalker :)

  • I'm no good at giving contract feedback but my vote is for Skinwalker! That story was bloody fantastic!

    Well done you on posting this. I admire it. I am not sure how confident I am with the help I could provide. I shall think about it and give each piece a read and get back to you. Hope that's okay? Just wanted to show my support though and leave a comment, so you weren't left wondering! :)

    I'm in if you don't feel my strange literary tastes would be corrupting. ;) I could definitely use some help in the future as well. Give me a bit of time to read carefully, I'll get back with you.
