Hi all!
I've just received a lit journal pass on a story I've been sending out for a few months, that I've realised over time (without making any significant edits) is a little 'thin' overall. The amazing personalised feedback they've provided has confirmed my vague suspicions AND helped me to pin them down:
[FONT=wf_segoe-ui_normal]'This is very well written. I especially admire how the writer is able to show and intimate without over writing. My only uncertainty pertains to the quality and depth of the characters' problems: can the writer focus a bit more on what exactly the characters' struggles are (besides Alex being a possible alcoholic, and general melancholy)? If we had a better sense of their problems, then the cats' comfort would mean more.'

How generous is that? I'm feeling quite inspired now![FONT=wf_segoe-ui_normal]
