Before I am Famous short stories

Browsing the net I had a chance to run across an up an up adn coming writer, and read one of her short stories.

She asked if I could comment on what I read, and I said I would be happy to.

The story I read was located at Before I am Famous and it was entitled Who Killed Amber-Lynne?

After giving it a quick read, I have to say i’m impressed. At first, i’ll be honest, it seemed like your regular run of the mill short story about an unsolved murder.

There was little character development at first, but you slowly became attached to the main character Peyton, and felt sorry for her.

I liked how that struck a cord emotionally, and as the story continued I tried to imagine what exactly would happen.

The way it was written, however, didn’t really allow me to do that, which I think is a good thing. Usually with stories like these you can guess what’s coming next.

When the character Rachel was introduced, I thought nothing of it. It was very well executed.

I won’t ruin the ending for you, but give it a read and let her know what you think!

There are a few other stories in the story list category that you should all take a look at.
