Well, that's fucked up. Did not expect the fish at all. I feel like I just read a Twin Peaks out-take.

When I read this comment back in my head it sounds kind of harsh but I don't mean it to be! I just mean.... lol creepy in a good way? D:

Creepy in a good way is my favourite!

And you know how much I love creepiness in stories, bb.

holy cheesemuffins batman! you make me want to write stuff. maybe this will be the impetus to get me out of the hole.

(you make it look so damn easy.)

BTW, I love the relationship between Eve and Carlos; their interactions are the stuff. ;)

I am a fan of things that get you out of the hole! (Alternately, you should just up & join brigits_flame, it's fabulous for forcing you to write in the pleasantest way possible.

Wonderful, wonderful piece. You have such a way with words, the way you string them together is like music. I really fell for this one. It's just beautiful and grisly and incredibly well-written. Very nicely done.

I'll have to stalk friend you now. I guess.

Thanks! Yay, friends!

Yeah no, it's not. They forgot to put it in so I default get into week three.

I love the format of this story-- The Rib/Origin/Soul-Taker/What Happens at Dusk caught me off guard, but in a good way! Your story was unpredictable and pleasantly surprising. I especially loved the way you took a biblical character (Eve) and reinvented her (she's quite the evil witch, eh?). That's a true mark of creative genius! Well done! So glad you're moving on! :)

tangledwood October 18 2009, 05:51:50 UTC

Thanks! I kind of feel like I'm cheating because I already know I'm moving on.

It's not cheating, don't think of it that way. It's a mistake that worked out to your advantage! Now just think...you can start early on the "teeth" prompt and not be all last minute! :)
