No Strings Attached. - Comments

This was so confusing, but I really like it. I like how it makes me think of freedom, in a way.

You really put a lot of meaning into 100 words. The picture matched the drabble so well. From this drabble, I could feel a sense of attachment which was unbreakable. Your writing style is amazing!

I... I kinda love this. I think I understand what you're talking about, but I could be wrong. But yeah. You're an amazing writer, and it just takes me to a different world when I read it.

Hmm. At first, I was a little confused as to what you were trying to write about and say to the readers - sort of like, what message were you trying to give us? Once I read the author's note, though, and it said this sums up everything you've been feeling recently, I thought it was really good that you used what you used to describe this.

The picture you used 'matches' your drabble, and I like it too. You wrote about random things, and I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing, but it still gives a good effect I think. In just 100 words, you've written a lot of meaning. :3

oh. my. GOD this is absolutely amazing. It tells so much with so little words. Love! and the picture is perfect for it. awesomeness, as usual!

I don't even know what to say about this. There isn't much to say, but it's still a fantastic story here. I love the photo mostly, that picture just totally matches the words you're conveying and just ack--brilliant.

It's fairly short, so there isn't really much to say. Even though, it was really powerful in the few words that I did read. I like how you don't outright say that there's something holding her (you?) back, and that you show it. The strings really do create a brilliant metaphor, which you worked to your advantage well.
I think it's relatable too, how people feel like they're just... stuck.
Anyways, like I said, I really liked it, even though it was really short.

Lovely layout :)
I love the pure emotion you conveyed in this; the way you used simple words to build up to a deep picture.
Nice job!

Firstly, and nobody else has hit this topic yet, I applaud your story layout. Often times I refuse to read a story due to the near impossibility of reading it because of a distracting, dark, ridiculously skinny, etc... layout. Your color choice seems relevant to the topic and the imagery ties in perfectly with your theme. And best of all: it is easy to read.

I got the sense that you were struggling with attachment versus freedom and using strings to convey that was a powerful image that I as a reader could understand, and relating back to your layout once again, the image you chose to accompany your story really enhanced the raw emotion in your work.

That was beautiful. I've seriously never read a drabble that good. I could feel the emotion, which is good since it is such a short passage of writing. You got the point across so eloquently. Great work, I'm not sure there is anything you should change about it.

I don't even really know what to say because, well, that was really amazing and I could never write a drabble like that. I just couldn't at all, and for this, I applaud you. *claps*

"If I make it to the sea, I will jump." is my favorite line ever. Absolutely gorgeous.
