This was dramatic without being overly dramatic, it was sad, it was touching, and I love when people write in this perspective, talking directly to you.

Recently I tried to write a short story for a contest (Not flash, just short fiction). The max was 4000 words and I ended up with 7000. (See why I'm bad at flash). Anyway, I think I got it down to 3995 or something, but you do flash fiction VERY well. Take it from someone who struggles with it! Great story. Very beautiful!Liesel K.

I read some of the other entries but I HONESTLY thought yours was the best that I saw.
