Poo Connie! :( I loved the ending when you added that she is only ten. Very nice work here.

you know what? i reckon the underlining in this makes the story work THAT much better, it kinda emphasises the precise-ness and perfection connie feels she has to have...it's really poignant, the last line just hits you...'and she is only ten' and then the last bit in bold, works so well! it's so true...i really like it! again i don't usually read one-shots and i don't really analyse, but i dunno, this story just kinda lingers in my mind even after i've read it and read a few other things..you just feel so sorry for her, and i'm sure most people have felt a bit like connie at some point in their lives, it's easy to empathise with her, you just want to cuddle her and whisper that it'll all be okay, she doesn't have to be the best, whatever she is, she's perfect...and it's heartbreaking that you can't say that to her, that no-one will...

i'd love to read a sequel for this, i'm not sure if you usually write sequels, but i'd be really interested in what happens to connie next...

anyway, i really SHOULD go to sleep soon, but i'm probably gonna read another one of your stories now!!

Wow. It was really good all the way through, but the ending put it over the edge. It kind of caught me off guard, and it made me feel more sorry for Connie then I ever had. The inent, correct?

I'd give you critism if I had any...but this is just too amazing.

aw...poor connie. is it true? it's so sad! i don't really know what it's about, besides her having to be perfect, but its good.

woah! that is crazy! i would hate that life! and the last statement in bold is soo very tru!

I love your style of writing! Its so sad that this story happens in the real world too. Good work!

this is so sad because it's true. i really like the style and stuff. keep it up, home dizzle!
