And now back to our regularly scheduled program. The five entries for this months workshop are up for comment. We invite everyone to pitch in and tell the writers what you think is working, what isn't working, and what could be strengthened. Are you hooked? Are the characters memorable and original? Is the story intriguing? Does it ring true? Is there a noticeable voice, a definitive perspective that comes through? Are there any global issues with the writing style that the writer should address? Jump in, kindly and respectfully, of course.
