Oh my god. That was just beautiful and wistful, actually.
I really like it and the prompts were wonderful (Sonya), I really like how you incorporated them in!

There's just this sort of hopeful vibe you get but then with going down the memories, it's like all your dreams are crushed and it's sort of painful. It's depressing but it's so wonderfully written that you feel the full impact.

that's good! I was aiming for that. it was more chronological than anything, but because the chronology is sad itself, it transferred nicely. so you'll have to thank j.k. rowling for that, haha.

I'm flattered you think so! I'm still really unsure of it, myself. and it's so short, on top of it all. but I'm glad you liked it! makes me more...reassured?

Yeah, it really did. And as you went down, it was so pretty in a sort of angsty pretty way?

Don't be, quantity is never better than quality so have some faith; I'm sure with more practice, it'll be longer!

Okay, okay. Good. That was aiming for!

I suppose. It's just strange...normally I write more in one hour, but the prompts made me think a lot between the sections, and as to how to put all of them in there. But, on the plus side, I did finish it in exactly one hour. Like, on the minute, I finished.

Goal achieved!

Well prompts are made to make you think of how to incorporate them and make it flow well into the story, like with some prompts, there's a similar theme running through them so you could base the story on that theme.
Haha, I could have never done that; I over-think too much and tend to re-read things to get a flow which usually takes too much time to be able to finish one in one hour.

Haha, it's not hard. You could do it, I promise. (:
