    This is a really interesting story!

    I love serial killers and reading stories about them always fascinates me. The concept of someone writing a letter to a serial killer is always an interesting one — and I LOVE that you wrote from the perspective of the killer’s daughter.

    We don’t often see the sides of the people left behind. Well, we see the side of the victim’s families, but what about the family of the murderer? Surely they must suffer, too, and you’ve captured that perfectly here.

    I love also how you cross out parts of the story, like how she goes back and forth between calling her father ‘Michael’ and calling him ‘Dad’. I think it’s like she can’t really separate the killer from the man who raised her, but at the same time, she’s trying.

    Very enjoyable story! :)

    I like this a lot. I think you did a really good job conveying the emotion. There were a few grammatical things but nothing major. I think the length of this is perfect, and I really enjoyed reading it. I also really love the way you used strikethroughs. It's hard to do well but I think you really did a good job!

    That was an interesting read. Short and sweet and to the point.

    It was nice. I liked the overall idea of it. It would make a nice chaptered story too, I think. The layout... isn't the best, but it's nice. It doesn't distract the reader from the story.

    There were a few spelling/grammar mistakes here and there, but nothing too bad.

    Overall it was lovely. A little on the dark side, but it was fantastic. Nice job!
