Some notes.

This one is not poorly written, but the story leaves me a bit confused.  I want to think the girl is a robot who's there to warn motorists with her laser eyes.  But that doesn't work for me.  If she can do it in the cabin and project her message into his head, why can't she do that out in the snow?  If she can blind him, can't she pass info?  And why the cabin?  If she's robotic and a sentry, shouldn't she just be there?  

It's me, I know.  In any case, I like the writing and the dialogue.  

Best
Richard

R,
Thanks for the read.    This was a "teaser" for the  feature I'm writing.  Currently, slogging through the tedious second act.  I'm certain you know what I mean.

Your questions are  "right on" and actually encouraging, I hope.

I'll respond weakly with," Superman has a problem seeing through lead" and Kryptonite's a bitch.

Thx again.

JJ

Intriguing.

Love the title.

Like Richard - I was confused - I now see this is the tease for a feature - makes more sense.

Good luck - well written I thought
