Bouvre Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 It was accepted back in January, but their limited publishing schedule (I think it's one story a week) made the wait longer than many places. Anyway, I hope you like it. https://jellyfishreview.wordpress.com/2020/05/25/negative-space-by-ellie-gordon/ 3 2
Lasty Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Needs more sex and explosions. ... I kid, I kid. It's a cute story that makes me think about how things change all the time and not necessarily with satisfactory resolutions. 1
lupin_bebop Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Needs......sex.....and hookers. Overall good story, albeit a little depressing in resolution, but that is fine. 1

Overall good story, albeit a little depressing in resolution, but that is fine. Thanks for reading y'all. It's a bit sad, but it brought me a lot of happiness to write it, and certain parts (the relationship between Sarah and Joey, for instance, and his return much later). I intended for these parts to buoy the grief at least a little.

Would you have to spell it again after the first time? Who is rearranging your fridge magnets? gasp! It's a g-g-g-GHO oh wait we just came from there... >___> 1

I think both are acceptable. I think I just have a certain view of child as being a little colder, or more distant. Kid feels endearing to me (though not everybody), and it likely gets my favor because of sound more than meaning.
