I was so taken aback at the darkness of it, I couldn't take it in right away. You are one multi-talented writer, and despite the shadowy tone of this piece, I like it. The content makes me very uncomfortable, and that's the sign of a well done piece of writing.<br /><br />Namaste..........cjcj Schlottmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18217936774632262633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7688526164999265223.post-43349574084152311032011-04-14T21:07:58.855-07:002011-04-14T21:07:58.855-07:00Fabulous!!

Sad. I think the parent is so in fear of losing one that they don't realize they are losing the others.<br /><br />That is definitely a darker side to your writing. You have just shown everyone that you are multi~talented. It's like when I first saw the movie The Majestic with Jim Carey. It was another side to his talent that I had not seen and I was impressed, just like I am impressed with your writing!

So I can identify with the heroine of your story, but it makes me furious when I see children being taken advantage of for silly reasons.
