Work of Art - Comments

I’m here as the new judge for the ‘Drabble Contest’.

I wasn’t sure what to expect going into this, knowing which quote you picked, but I wasn’t disappointed. I actually enjoyed that you didn’t make it romantic in a typical sense of the word. You romanticized the body, painted it in a very artistic light that I never thought to look at the human body in. You made me think with this drabble. You made me reconsider how I look at the human body and I realized that wow, yeah, it is a piece of art. I also love how you ended it with the fact that perhaps the greatest part of all is that no two bodies are alike. That was beautiful and rung so very true.

Overall, this drabble, in general, was beautiful and well-written. Very thought-provoking, so fantastic job!

I'm here judging the drabble section of my pre-writes contest!

I have honestly never sat down and thought about how incredible the human body is, so this really made me think, which I loved. The idea of the human body being this incredible work of art made through hard graft and love is something that I usually debunk (I tend to complain if anyone says something that can't be explained by science) but this was written so beautifully that I can't even question that. The entire drabble just paints this beautiful picture that I can't and won't debunk with stuff like that.

The way that you describe everything and bring across this idea that everyone is unique and wonderful and worth it is a pick-me-up that leaves the reader feeling great about themselves afterwards and I think that's what I liked about this the most. Your piece was uplifting and really nice to read, it's got a real positive ring to it. Lovely!

I think that this is such a simple but well written drabble.

I want to start off by saying thanks for entering.

I really enjoyed reading this. I loved that layout and I think it added to the reader experience. I liked that you chose a simple title that summed up the piece. It made me want to read it and I thought you did a nice job with it. I think you excelled in creating a nicely developed piece. I didn't find myself searching for what was coming next. You took creative risks that really worked for you. Also, I find it impressive that you used so little words to create a nicely finished piece of work.

I think that I would have rather not see the quote in the piece. I truly think that it didn't need the quote in it. I think that it was perfectly fine without it. I got it without needing that quote. Also, I think that the flow from paragraph to paragraph was a little sudden. The piece flowed as a whole, but the shifts were just a little too quick for me.

I think you did create something that was nicely written. You managed to write something really nice. I think you created something truly great and I am glad I had the chance to read this.
