Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.Kisses wrote:Telling two stories at the same time is a great writing, you will see in the style of writing in how it compares and reflects the two different path of story, but they are connected and having the same point of view.
The story was interesting.
Thank You.

Those were fun to write.gaporter wrote:I liked the chapters in the past better than those in the present. I found that storyline much more interesting. In general, I like switching timelines as a storytelling device because it often adds more depth to the story.

Interesting commentgreenstripedgiraffe wrote: ↑17 Oct 2016, 11:33 I liked the switching back and forth between past and present - that is a good way to tell this story. I can't really imagine how this would work with only one viewpoint, actually. If it was the past only, then you don't have the modern day story. if it's the present only, there would have to be some other way of discovering what happened in the past - more research from the modern characters (which, proved very difficult, at best...) Too many visions of the past would hinder the believability.
Thanks anyway.
