RE: All that glitters...

Ah, the consequence of choices! You write suspense really well. It definitely has a noirish feel to it, aside from the image you chose to go with it! I love playing with genre, it's a great experiment - though I haven't written noir before. I always think I'd rather flip it and do it with female characters, as it's such a masculine genre. Or even with a trans/lgbtiq detective character - could be super fun! It's definitely a thought providing piece that shows off your ability as a writer - the emotional impact, the dialogue, the depth of your characters are all fantastic. Thanks for sharing!

Yep, knowing you, I'm sure you would have turned the genre and narrative inside out and upside down and succeeded with flair 🤗 Thank you for taking the time to read my efforts and for the useful feedback. The image? lol I had no idea which one to choose. So I just went with something literal 😂 I was amusing myself in a lost sort of way 😂😂😂 Hope you are well, Riverflows. Sending love x

lol I didn't take it the wrong way. I love sharing too so I get ya. I loved that you shared this alternative approach to the prompt. Reading you makes me shift my perspective on writing and helps to challenge me to do better. Honestly, I love feedback like this. It's so damn refreshing. I wish more people would engage like you do 💗🙌
