Winter Scars 2008-12-10 . chapter 1
Nicely written. I like how it is short and sweet -yet also explanatory. The mention of the protagonist being both girl and monster sends a chill down my spine. As a fellow horror writer, that's quite a good response. I like the brief insight into the character's thoughts, to be named, "What have I become?!" I find it incredibly well-put. The spaces between the sentences send a nice look to it, like it was worked on quite a bit. The metaphors work nicely. I especially like the one that goes: "That hair hung down over my shoulders like vines wrapping their fingers around my body." The descriptions of her rotting form are beautifully and morbidly done -finally, someone writes a good bit of horror not revolving around vampires and werewolves. I congratulate you myself on creating a non-cliché thing. It worked well for you. I find it to be one of the better 'rotted monster' tales written on this site, short enough to be a drabble but not quite there yet. Thank you for putting this up.

Kudos.

Seriously?
You be BRILlANTT.
This scene is sorta cliche, I guess one could say, in a way because looking into a mirror and seeing what you've become is kinda overused.

But I haven't read this kinda stuff in a while.
:D

Loved it.
