Ghoulishly, delightfully creepy

This is great work - well-written and with sophisticated style. I greatly enjoyed the use of repetition - "Life went on" - to drive home the dreamlike blend of monotony and horror. The world you evoke is powerful and unnerving.

Lots of shudders.

Life Goes On...

I came to the first occurrence of: "life went on" with a sinking "uh-oh" feeling but I was pleasantly surprised as I kept reading. You managed to take a trite phrase and imbue it in a lovely, haunting, and somehow melodic way to create an atmosphere of hypnotic repetition. Really well done. Love the mirror aspect, the narcissism, the blind pursuit of self-gratification to the exclusion of the outside world. And the ending, fantastic! Great piece, good luck!

Pretty cool

You feel her mind slipping away, one piece at a time, until fantasy and reality are the same. Very good.

Well done ...

Your story had me on the edge of my seat. For some reason mirrors creep me out so I liked this one. If you get the chance go to Amazon and find "The Mirror" by Marlys Millhiser. It's a truly inventive read. Good luck with the contest!

Makes me want to cover all my mirrors

An excellent portrayal of Marjorie's slow but steady implosion. I love the way you developed Marjorie as an oucast/loner just plodding through life, without any apparent connection or interests, slowly disassociating herself (or being forced to) from the rest of the world. Take the mirror out of the story and it becomes a cautionary tale. With the mirror, it's damn creepy.

Really well done ...

That was one of the

most grusome things I've read on this site. Very impressive. Makes me glad I got rid of the old mirror of my grandmothers...

First-rate plot

A great job of plotting, and as others have pointed out, you painted a poignant, yet erotic, picture of her descent into her dreams, or in this case, the mirror. You also used repetition very effectively.

There are a few technical glitches early in the story. Smooth those out and then submit. IMHO, it's that good.

Oh my goodness!

What a creepy story. You did a great job, taking us along on her slow slide out of reality.

Good luck.

Decent into darkness

That was an awesome story. The structure, grammar and plot were all perfect. No happy ending here; or was there?

And The Point Is?

No, the structure, etc., was NOT perfect. For instance the author wrote "...family had decided rather than clean the dried blood off the carpet and walls." They decided what? To move? Burn the house down? Find another stray bit of glass (maybe there were lots of them lying around that household) and cut their own throats?

Yep, I made an error

in the beginning. Cut/paste left a fragmented sentence. I caught if after I submitted it, and feedback also pointed it out. I hope it wasn't too distracting.

Creepy

but erotic description of a woman's slide into ...what? Was she crazy or was the mirror haunted. It is in need of editing, though and some of your sentences should be rewritten, besides the one about dried blood on the carpet. I like your reference to "The Clique" because I suspect that every high school has one or more.

need more!

Great story, but you totally left me hanging! What's with the mirror? or is she just crazy? I think it needs a second chapter :)

good luck with the contest.
