Really enjoyed this, Rosalind. You've done a phenomenal job of establishing your protagonist's personality through internal dialogue, experiences, memory, and the way she interacts with others. Just all around awesome. This bit quoted below made me feel like a teenager again for a moment, haha!

"Joanna was suddenly so aware of her pores and of her glands and of the biological processes that went into something as intricate as breathing in and out. Keeping blood in her veins and air in her lungs was suddenly something she had to concentrate on."

Thank you, Keyon! I guess all my awkward moments in adolescence actually served a purpose!

Your comment means a lot. I appreciate it! I'm excited to check out your work too. Happy writing!

Not sure if all those moments were worth it for you, but they were for me, haha! Thanks, Rosalind. Hope you enjoy.

If those moments are building a story, then I'll take it.

I'm enjoying your work too -- beautifully done! I'm not too far in yet, but I'm enjoying myself. :-)
