I am very impressed with your style. Your writing is clear, intelligent, and entertaining.
Since you mentioned that you intended to write only 500 words, I suggest that you skip the introduction and just write about the encounter with the "Dark Fey."
Start the story in the woods, and embellish the details about the creature and the girl.
Truly good stuff, Emily.
Wow. This was really intriguing.
If you turned this into something longer that would be really rad.
I'd love to find out why the Faeries lost the power from their own moon and sun and what the outcome will be from waging war on our planet.
Very cool story.
This is an amazing story about the fey. I have read a few books about faeries and I love them. This makes me want to read more of your story. I would like to know what the dark court does with the human, and why they took her/him. The details are great. I also want to know why her mom had the joint party in the first place. It seems as if she had a reason for it. Great job on holding my attention all the way till the end.
I just realized that I haven't updated my about me in two years. A lot can and has happened in those two years. I am now twenty years old. I haven't gotten through college yet but I plan to. Unfortuna.. more..
