Putting much history in 750 words leaves out too much, including the doubt and angst of meeting another after the loss of a spouse. A ‘smaller’ topic would have been much easier to work with.
I don't think most readers understand the difficulty in telling a complete story in 750 words. You pulled it off wonderfully.
Short, sweet and very moving. Been to that dark place before and someone helped me back into the light.
I had kind of pictured them as older people, so I was surprised when the son was born. Well written, as always, and moved along at a perfect pace. difficult to do in 750 words.
Oh, S&F, such a sweet story, my eyes were clouding as it ended. 750 words was just the right length for this, or better yet, this story was written perfectly within the span of 750 words. Great job, 5*.
You got the spirit of the 750 word project perfectly, a complete story, beginning to end. Great job!
It is amazing that such a long journey can be expressed in 750 words and make a person feel like it is complete.
This is the second story I read of yours. Also an excellent read. Another 5stars
Oh yeah. Amazing what emotion you managed to fit into this 750 word gem. Thanks!
