HINDRANCE : TEN

I make a number three—curly, with flowers and shiny blue bits, and fix it to my door. It’s not one of my best numbers, but it’s by far my favourite.

It takes me six hours to finish.

Things feel heavier now that you’re gone.

I seem to remember things felt heavier when she was there....

Excellent.

The old circular narrative trick...

Maybe things just feel heavy for him cause he's such an 'impressionable' character...

I like impressionable main characters - aided or not, by their ongoing heaviness. I found your MC very impressionable. Loved this last one. Short, sweet and dare I say it...equally as impressionable as the preceding posts. Am a bit a fan of shiny blue bits too...

Thank you. And thanks to all for following a longer story. There will be more of these. A really big one will start just before Christmas, so stay tuned..

I found your site at post four and have been trying to find it all night through google. I'm glad I found it again! Keep up the great work!
