Reviews For: A Doll's Life

Thank you for the review!

I altered the version on my hard drive, I just deleted the paragraph "You may have heard..". I tend to do that when I write a story in one sitting, because I don't read back a lot.

I won't update on FF, but I value your critique. :D

This is cute, and the ending with the broken doll giggling to herself in a trunk somewhere is ever so slightly creepy to me.

The story works pretty well, but the concept is very simple and even this short length feels a little stretched out. The concept is perfect for flash fiction.

The two paragraphs starting with "You may have heard that some Native tribes..." seemed a little off kilter. You might consider removing those.

Overall, this shines stylistically. Just try to get it as short and sweet as you can manage without hurting the style and you've got a winner.

Good luck and keep writing!
