Hello,

I entered the most recent Twilighted original fiction contest and have spent the past few days reading the entries from the other contestants in that contest. I enjoyed them so much that I decided to check out other original fiction pieces, and I have not been dissapointed.

This story is really incredible. Your characters are so real. You had what, 3,000 words to write this story in? I feel like I know Ishara. Her voice is really strong in this story. I love how playful this all was, and how snarky. You did a wonderful job, really. Congratultations on the honorable mention and I hope you continue to write because you are really able to weave a tale well.

Congratulations on finishing an original piece for the contest! It can be quite a struggle, I know.

Ishara is indeed a strong-voiced character; she's still knocking around my head, getting herself into trouble--I have more than a few pages of her in ridiculous situations written out.Thanks to this contest/story, she really has taken on a life of her own.

Thank you again for your kind words!
