  7. I like how she's always talking to the dead character. It really helps me to understand where she's coming from.

  9. Oh man, so intense and sad :( ... which means I loved it. Especially this part:

    "The only tragedy here lay in the fact that you were supremely selfish. I never realized it until just then, but you are the most selfish person I’ve ever known."

    So honest, and heartbreaking.

  11. Dear lord, Karla! Where do I begin with this, where do I begin? Well, I'd like to point out all the sentences I loved, but that'd take forever! That and the fact that I'm not sure I could fit the entire snippet in this itty-bitty space.

    Your writing style is magnificent. Seriously. The way you describe the emotions and actions of your characters--the awesomeness with which you describe these things makes me want to cry!

    I loved it all. Really, this piece was great and sad and intense and beautifully written.

    More please.

    P.S. It's her twin that died??? That's absolutely tragic.
