All Comments on 'La Petite Mort'

Very well done! 5*

This was delightful, Freya. The kind of story that I wish that I could write yet always seem to fall short of. Poetic, engaging, beautiful. Bonus points for the POV that so few people seem to like, that you still managed to make shine! A testament to your great talents.

Thanks for trusting me with your pre-read. A soft, lovely story, very elegantly slotted into 750 words!

I was halfway through the story before I realized that it was a solo flight. Very nicely done.

Thank you, @Tnicoll!! I was worried about this one. It's odd...

Oh, @Devinter, you always know just what to say!! 😊

Very very sweet

@ccitydude, I find it fascinating how some creative works can be interpreted in so many different ways... I don't want to publicly explain my intentions with this (very) short story, but if inquiring minds want to know, feel free to message me!

Please, let your intentions speak for themselves. I'll happily take the story as written with no explanation. Well done.

Entire piece erotically blissful; last 7 lines of this poetic prose, so much feeling/essence captured.

@Migbird, thank you! You are too kind!!

Nice, Freya. And definitely a different style. La petite morte...elle se doigter? Very poetic and vividly aware of all the sensations she brings to herself. There's no end to your talents like!

Stipple...a word that should be used more 😀

Bravo!

@Anonymous, I think I first heard about the Pointillism Movement in regards to "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte." And since the title of my story is French and Georges Seurat was French and Pointillism utilized the stippling technique, naturally, I needed to find a way to incorporate the word "stipple" into the story. And the middle-schooler in me gets a kick out of the fact that it rhymes with nipple. 😆 Add this to the list of stupid things that amuse me.

Ah, oui! I can't believe I didn't pick up on the stipply nipple, but I'm quite relieved that there is someone more puerile than me 😁

But then, it's only a slip of the tongue from La Grande Jatte to La Grande Chatte!
