To Begin Again,
A truly gruesome and sad thing that happened, for after many years of domination she has finallyeen set free and is able to make her own decisions.

Comment from Lynne
WOW ! What an ending !!! Well done, My Dear. My father held me off a tall pier over the Pac Ocean when I was a young girl. Never knew fear like that and haven't since. Well, he's softened and is now a wonderful, nurturing man. I never forgot that. Hey, at least he didn't up rolled up in my oriental rug ! LOL Splendid ! D~

This is soooooo six-worthy! Damn, I have none...I really hope this one wins. Excellent story, wonderful details and great imagery throughout. I felt like I was with Olivia all the way, and was happy with her killing Daddy! Shame on me...lol. Great, great job and best of luck in the voting booth! Hugs and smiles, Susanne

Comment from Changeisgood
Well written, saw no mistakes. It did surprise me that her grandmother was in on it. It's clear that she poisoned her father, but at her age I don't see how he could have made her have an abortion; but, then, again, so much depends in your story about the father being evil. It reminds me of "Washington Square," by Henry James where the heroine's father buys off a suiter, who really is after the woman's money. She, of course, doesn't kill her father. You are able to capture the stress and oppression of the heorine, but I disagree with her action. But, that IS the story and you make as good a case as you can.

I don't believe in her actions either..luckily it's a story and won't really happen. Thanks, Carol
Comment from KYPollard/El Gato
this was a sad story. wow, you never know what kind of person you're raising until they are pushed to show you.
nice writing here, my friend. I have one thing to show you:
... a fact that highly irritated Daddy.
This sounds like it is writen in first person. Shouldn't it read: "... a fact that highly irritated HER Daddy"?
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Dom G Robles
This story is beautiful. I think it deserves a star of six. Neatly written from beginning to end. I don't feel like going into details because the details reveal themselves. The expressions are beautiful. To understand this contention is to go over and read the story. It is one of the best tragic stories I have read. There is a twist that a loving father had been killed at the end.
