Hwy, Anthony:
Quoted Text
DAD (O.C.) What is love?
Are you missing an "it" here?
Quoted Text
Rex lets her have the stick back to stir the new pool. BETHANY See?
IMO - a bit too crisp here. Not sure what let'e her have the stick here is suppose to be visually and I don't know what she's looking at when she says "see". Maybe something like:
Hoping for a fetch, Rex drops the stick to the ground. Bethany grabs it, stirs the pool - nothing but water. - Something like that.
I didn't quite get the theme of the story - at the end felt that there was more to read.

Thanks for taking a read Dave, this was another one of the 'spare' 1 pagers from the OWC. What is love? as in What is rubbish, so no it. Sticky bit, yep will make that clearer... Amended the end a little too...

Started out very well and you kept me curious to the very end. But the ending is abrupt for me and I'm not sure I got it.

Anthony, you deacribed the fairy as a young girl with white hair. Maybe you could say Bethany. a bit otn but it'll bring clarity.
