MJ,
Ummm... yeah. You have to continue it. This character is awesome. The setting is awesome. The whole premise is awesome. The descriptions of how Daisy feels inside her depression are nothing short of perfect.
Not only should you finish it, but you should hurry. I'm waiting. Go on.

I have written some more, but I don't know when I'll be able to post it. I would like it to eventually turn into my Dissertation if possible. I have the whole story mapped out in my head, but there is a 'medical problem' I'm trying to solve with the help of two students who are doctors.
Thanks for your kind review.

Anything I can help with?

Thanks, but it's just that I need to kill a character off in a believable way...

Comment from brenda faye curtis
I like the character development and the colorful descriptions of her descent into depression. It does seem to need a second chapter, as it feels like the story is stopped in the middle here. Looking forward to the next one!

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Well I hope you're going to finish this one Maria? Leaving us up in the air like that? Was she hit by the statue falling? Was she dead and going to heaven? Was she infused with life at the thought of a miracle, I have so many questions. Your writing has improved with your course and I thoroughly enjoyed your introduction of the story, but you must finish it! Please? Love Dolly x

She wasn't hit by the statue, Dolly. But something happened to her when the shard got into her neck.
I'm going to continue this and I'll try to post more, but I'm super busy now.
Thanks for reading.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written introduction to a possible new story. When our lives change for the worse we are feeling depressed and many of our normal fun activities change to dreadful tasks we do not have the strength for.

Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
I thought this very well penned and extremely engaging. It would make a great novel because it already contains some pretty resonate universal elements which will a appeal to a broad audience - loneliness, depression, the omen of the angel. Well done and thank you very much for sharing it.

Comment from lyenochka
This is a great beginning! I hope you continue. You use that single bit of golden shard in her neck to start making me wonder if there is something magical about it. Why did the fire truck look so bright red? Could it have something to do with the statue?

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hell Maria. I liked the transition of the story from the walk to the memories of Paco. I couldn't write a novel because of patience and short sentences. The sentence here that struck me is, "swallowed by her brain piece by piece, day after day." That is outstanding. Well done. I would read a follow up to this chapter. I am considering in my mind what inevitably happens to Daisy with the chard in her neck. Robert

Comment from Sally Law
I like this and it is clear she is depressed because she
lost her husband, her mind confused with jumbled thoughts. The end is a bit unclear though. It appears she may have either tried to commit suicide or was temporarily confused and fell. She appears to be alive, but semi-conscious. I hope for the next chapter, Maria.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sal xo

A statue fell in front of her. It was an accident. She's alive, but the shard in her neck has 'miraculous' properties that will be disclosed later on.
Thanks for reading.

Okay, thank for clarifying. My eyesight loss has worsened and it all I can do to read. I have a new keyboard specific for the sight impaired, so typing/writing is a bit easier. I'm sure it was me and not you. Your writing is always stellar. xo

You're too kind, Sally. Hope your sight doesn't get any worse.
My dad also had eyesight problems due to his diabetes. He got books and news on tape and used a magnifier.

I think you've made an excellent start to your novella Maria, you've produced a really great plot, and a wonderful character to fill that writing. I look forward to reading more of Daisy and the golden shard. Well done My friend, blessings Roy
