You write beautifully! Heartbreaking-ly. I love how, in such short drabbles as you've shared on AO3, you're able to evoke such emotional reactions from your readers. And your use of descriptive language --
"Her thumb sweeps along the heel of my palm, brushing my wrist, where handcuffs once bit into my skin to help me keep my grip on reality. I close my eyes and let myself feel her this time, focusing on the gentle, rhythmic motion of her touch, the sensation that keeps me from slipping."
"The clouds in her eyes shift, darkening, gathering water. I reach up to wipe a tear that’s escaped from a corner of her eye..."
-- it's powerful and beautiful. You really have a talent for detailing your characters and their emotions and connecting your readers to the story.
Thank you for writing and sharing this, as well as your other stories. :)
What an incredibly flattering review! Thank you so much for your sweet words. It means so much. We write in a vacuum, so to get any feedback--especially positive feedback--is such a gift.
