Welcome to Hive and to The Ink Well, @ruthyann! I really enjoyed your story. I like the voice and sensibilities of this narrator. We see her at the moment she is completely fed up with her current circumstances, and ready to make some changes. It's a nice story of empowerment.
Now that you're here, please have a look around and get to know how our community works. We are all about quality short fiction and engagement!
You can find our community rules at the top of The Ink Well home page. We ask everyone who posts in The Ink Well to read and comment on at least two other writers' work in the community for every story published.
You can also find some introductory information in our recent newsletter. And be sure to visit the resources available in our catalog of fiction writing tips.
Again, welcome and we look forward to seeing more of your work!
Thanks alot for stopping by,I'll definitely look around ❣️
