Short Read, Great World Building
"In a related universe to The Silver Princess, the story of Jessica is heartbreaking but like a phoenix I imagine she comes out stronger on the other side. Definitely would like to reader more from the world that’s been created."
Flames Of Solitude
"Amazing writing! Your short stories are great! I love how you describe things and your writing style is so new and unique to me and I'm all in for it! Thanks for sharing Jessica's story, it's beautiful. Looking forward to book 2. Also, just a little request; I loved your book "The silver princess" so will you please write a book on maybe a love story between Rina and Silas? I'd definitely read that. Love both of your books, thanks again :) "
Flames of Solitude :Vol 1
"Definitely a weird short story"
So beautiful and sad!!
"This story is so beautifully written. I love the characters, they seem so real. And I wish I could hug Jessica :( (without getting burned, though). I will keep on reading. LOVE IT!"
Antihero or Villain origin story
"The writing is flawless. No need to go over grammar or spelling. The author's writing style is notably engaging, skillfully employing the technique of "showing" rather than "telling." Instead of directly stating that Jessica's mother is fatigued, the narrative adeptly conveys this by depicting the shadows beneath her eyes. This approach not only imparts a vivid image but also evokes a palpable sense of emotion within the reader. --- One minor observation is the occasional repetition of dialogue tags, such as "Melody exclaimed" appearing consecutively. While this is not a significant issue, it might be worthwhile to consider alternative phrasings, even the simple "Melody said," which remains entirely appropriate. --- [SPOILER] The last sentence of the first chapter foreshadows the potential evolution of the main character, suggesting the possibility of a villainous origin story. I think that was well done. --- What I also noticed was the repetitive use of the title "Flames of Solitude" in different chapters: "Flames of Solitude. Lonely and abondened." and then "Flames of Solitude. Sealed and confined." The repetition of the title underscores the thematic consistency and significance of the flames as a central motif in the story, emphasizing Jessica's journey of self-acceptance and personal growth. This technique adds depth and complexity to the storytelling, enriching the reader's engagement with the character and her evolving narrative arc."
