Hero

Thank you! I have really been considering adding more. I've been a little discouraged here lately about writing and I've been super busy. This week is spring break though so maybe just maybe I'll be able to do some add ons and new entries! Keep an eye out please. Thanks so much!

This story grabbed me! I want to know how she got there, and who put her there! This short short story needs to be lengthened a bit I think! Haha. Please continue this, It's very good and although I agree with what other users have corrected you on, I personally wouldn't change most of the things you have written
Keep on trying!

Do you guys like the format or no?

What does everyone else think about this short short story??

Thanks

It's still a bit stiff in some places, but it's getting there. Keep at it!

(And also, remember that my opinion really doesn't matter much. It's what you think of your own work that's important. ^_^)

I changed the format and changed some words and sentences! Hope you like it!!!

jujubean05,

Okay... Um... This is very confusing and seems kind of stiff. For the most part you did well with using description, but the text was very rigid to read. It's also extremely short. There were a few grammar errors, as well. I'll see what I can do to help.

Rescuer's shouts relieved my thoughts of perishing. The sound of rescuers' shouts relieved me from thinking of perishing. I was saved from a horrid fate. SKIP! Suddenly aA flash of yellow came into my vision. He couldn't see me.! I tried to call out, but my fragile voice would not come to me when I needed it most. I started kicking, and hit the box closest to me., pushing it out of the way. SKIP! My hero finally caught sight of me.

I keep it kinda of vague on her where-abouts, because I want my readers to be able to think for themselves on how she got there and why she is there. It kind of gives them the prevelege to add there own thoughts into it.
And that one sentence, "The scream of sirens brought me back to" ..... you know how when people pass out or faint, they wake about up they say they came to or were brought back to. I seems to be an incomplete sentence, but that is why after that I put "I must have fainted".

But thank you for your suggestions. I always take them into consideration.

Especially the more I end up writing in a short story, I like to space it out, so the feel of the story is kind of choppy, which leaves my reader hooked and at the edge of their seat, which is what I think you were trying to accomplish here.
I feel I need to butcher this, sorry haha.

I love how you started with this sentence. Keep it.

Another keeper, good description.

I was not quite sure where I was. It seemed to be some type of basement. Brown boxes were stacked all around.
Why were you not sure? Were you knocked out, and then you woke up? Also, I don't like you description of the room in the last two sentences here. I'm not sure what you were imagining, I would say something like "Surrounding me in this basement-like room were brown boxes, their edges worn by the floor and the corners of the walls."

The smell of mold and dust penetrated my nostrils.

Very nice.

The scream of sirens brought me back to.
I'm assuming you didn't finish this sentence.

Very nice job, and I really hope to see more of this story. Really, you should make it longer so you can develop your character, because right now I don't know a thing about her, namely how she got to where she was.
Good work!
