That was such a sad story. From the beginning I was drawn in to the vivid feeling of helplessness of a woman stuck in the life she thought she deserved and had to live. So powerful.

Thank you, I hope that those feelings came through as realistic, and that I did justice to women in that situation. It was a big subject to tackle for teeth! I hope that you liked it, even though it was grim. Thanks for leaving a comment!

Oh, beautiful but heartbreaking. I need to go kiss some puppies or something. You play those heartstrings like a harp, my dear.

Hehehe...thanks. I didn't have my trusty beta for this, so I am sure you were groaning and shaking your head throughout. I hope it wasn't too over-done. Thanks for reading it!

Ah. Well done. The pace, the characterizations of the abusive father and the strong mother and their innocent son were splendid. I enjoyed reading this very much. You have such a good handle on the pace and the realism of the piece. Very nice work.

Good luck at BF this week.

Wow. That was heartwrenching. The part where Jack had her teeth in his hands was beautiful. Kids have such a different perspective on things thatn adults.
