    Hello, hello, hello... My suggestion would be to post the chapters in separate threads. That way the reader doesn't have to read piecemeal bits of the chapters. Anyway, a few ...

    Yes, you have a bit of an info-dump here. Never fear, however, it can all be fixed with a little editing. My suggestion would be to have the action happening, ...

    I liked this. Your descriptions were nice and you have what appears to be the start of a great story here. A crit: "Bible" should be capitalized. Other than that, ...

    This was kind of depressing. It just felt so hopeless. However, you did a good job of getting into the character's head. She rambles a bit and so on and ...

    Oops, read chapter 1 before the prologue... :) This was quick, but it was to the point. And it sets up the meeting of Tanner in the next chapter quite ...

    This was an interesting beginning. I want to read more. You move the story along pretty quickly in this chapter. Maybe you could slooooow down a bit and describe things ...

    I loved this. It was awesome the way you gave a fire personality. It sounded like an angry god from ancient mythology almost, regretting those puny humans and some stupid ...

    This was so sad. I just ache for both the person sewing and the one they are trying to mend. I loved this. The language and the rhythm, and just ...

    I liked it. It was simple, yet powerful. My only issue with it is that you use the word 'hole' at the end of two lines in the first stanza. ...

    The first stanza is significantly longer than the rest of them. 8 : 4 I think perhaps you didn't hit 'enter' between the first two stanzas. This was simple. It ...
