Thanks for the critique of my story. I appreciate your comments.

Thanks for reading!
And yeah, Frank is supposed to be sort of a jerk. I don't like him much myself, but sometimes it's fun to write about people you find deplorable!

hi, ben!
thanks for your critique--you have some good questions about what the frick happened in there. i'll rework to try to make the answers more self-evident. i appreciate your comments!

Come back! Write more!

If that's the first short story you've ever written, I think you'll do just fine. But don't get over-confident, either: There's always room for improvement.

Thanks for reading "The First-TImer." If you look on the second page, the fork calls out to the spoon, so it is written from a spoon's perspective Let me know when you post some writing and I'd be happy to give it a read. Thanks again! --dnm
