    This story was excellent, especially the title :) I have to say this felt rather like a fable. It's a rather simple story told in a wonderful way. It's something ...

    You have captured what many authors fail at. The writing is not about capitalization and punctuation but about rhythm, feeling, flow. You have succeeded wonderfully. I love the metaphor and ...

    HAHAHAHA! That was hilarious! The whole thing was just hilarious in general. Just to be sure, it was the wolf coming in at the end, right? I love the excuses. ...

    I thought this was an okay piece of literature, but it needs editing. The idea of it was super creepy and I felt disgusted after at what people can do. ...

    Allow me to be the first to comment. First of all, I really like your premise. A stressed out and over-worked woman enters a fantastical world in which she escapes ...

    At first, I thought that this was going to be another Twilight clone, but as the story went on, I could see I was very wrong. Your idea is solid ...

    I'm not sure how I feel about this. On the one hand, it is just an intro. On the other, there is nothing to make the reader want to come ...
