Decided to return a read. Seeing Lullaby has been picked up (Congrats on that), decided to do the review on this one.
SPOILERS!
Like the story however, I think this could end earlier with the girl beating the hunter at the rock scene...unless maybe something else distracts her from that. But the phone conversation at the house could take place at the woods.
Other than that, it's good.
Hope this helps, Gabe

Your view on when the story should end is shared by atleast one other reviewer. I did feel that it took too much away from the story, so I have decided to leave it alone at this point.
I do find myself asking which is a psychotic hallucination and what is reality. So, did she really kill her dad? Is there any point in killing him after she’s been forced to take the pills? Were the pills a hallucination? I did see the twist coming when the pills were revealed. Over all, solid work. Thanks for sharing.
The psychosis subsidies at the end, I feel I made this evident not only through Hannah's realization of the situation but also her father's eyes turn from black back to a normal colour.
We first see the pills from our own perspective, not Hannah's. I felt this would show that they are infact real.
Apologies. I actually read this and Evil Karma but neglected to comment. Think I might've been drinking, but I reread this one. Actually both remind me of the kind of stuff I was writing when I first started in the sense that it's immediate, tension-driven storytelling. It's an excellent place to start in terms of learning basic drama and dynamic forward momentum. The writing itself is sorta stiff and repetitive, but I appreciate the focus on clarity, and I still struggle with that business somewhat myself.
I appreciate your spirit and positive attitude though. Keep at it. I think you're on the right track. Congrats on getting picked up. Will try to keep an eye out for your work in the future. Hope you don't mind my comments are sorta on the general side, but figured I'd say something regardless.
