Stepping through the dunes and onto the beach itself overwhelms with darkness, the brief ...

West of it All – Caitlin

I enjoyed the setting of this short story. You have given the reader a good sense of the atmosphere that exists on a surfing beach and I genuinely felt like I could imagine being there, which is a great sign. I also felt you handled characterisation well, such as that of the narrator and of the brother. The relationship between the two of them was enjoyable to observe.

In terms of story structure, I think it needs a little work. Essentially, between the beginning and the end of a story, something should have changed. In a short story it can be a very small change, such ...

In the world where we live, we exist with the perceptions that there are limitations to the feats that the human body could perform.

I believe that this is fair. It would be unfair to exclude people from eligibility to live in a “nice” area of town on the basis of their income level.
The tenants in the rent-controlled apartments will continue to pay the same rate even as increasing inflation drives up the monthly rent of surrounding units. Another problem is that the rent-controlled apartments could decrease the value of the other houses and apartments, making the upscale neighborhood less “nice.”
The presence of the reduced-rent condominiums will probably bring new businesses to the area that cater to lower-income consumers. This means ...

He was not one of those people who became doctors with a story of how he got a stethoscope for Christmas as a child and, as he played with it, he knew he wanted to grow ...

One of the more common themes in Hollywood is the notion that there is some secret authority network watching our movements and controlling what happens to us. The Matrix trilogy suggested that just about all of us were plugged into an artificial system of interaction that a shadowy Architect had put together, as a nefarious substitute for genuine existence. The Adjustment Bureau featured a series of agents of Fate who run around with Moleskine notebooks that automatically update as people move forward in time, trying to keep the Master Plan intact. We enjoy stories like these, in part because we wonder whether ...
