I really enjoyed this. A strong voice with an intriguing concept and characters. You packed a lot of worldbuilding into a small amount of words, too. I was pretty tired when I read it and it still made me sit up and pay attention so I look forward to seeing how you refine it!

I was really impressed with the amount of world building in this story! It gripped me right from the start. I look forward to reading the next draft!

That twist at the end! This was very cool - I loved the blending of different realities. Trying to figure out what was real and how everything fit together kept me hooked the whole way through!

Thank you all! I had fun and went in a totally different direction with it than I thought I would. I?ve been reading everyone?s stories as the WriterInMotion account as I post them on the Twitter thread?great stuff!

Wow, SM, this is so cool! It reminds me a bit of the Janus books I used to love when I was a kid, with the twist at the end! Excellent job showing the mental journey!

Thanks, Skaeth! I?m itching to edit!

YOU WROTE SCIENCE FICTION?

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? 

Beautiful concept and I love that your MC is trying to unbrainwash herself.

This was so cool! I love how you were able to build a world in so little words, both painting us a visual and dropping hints of how this society work in such a short space. Lovely voice as well.

It's amazing how you've built such a complex world and threw your characters into the thick of such intrigue and betrayal in so few words! And the haunting song lyrics!
