A story that needed to be written. Also posted on Tumblr. Are there too many characters? Comments welcome.
I am getting lost in all the names, yeah.
Okay, yes, I had a hard time following what was going on. I feel like the really relevant characters are Bridget, Christine, and Friederike, but I'm confused about the relationship between Christine & Friederike, why Bridget thinks she should get the inheritance, and the idea that Bridget is greedy explored further, knowing that Christine is dying also.
(Not sure why the coaster made her collapse? Missed something in the bit about Meg maybe.)
Thanks, Frankie. That answers something buzzing in my head that tells me it should be a much longer story, or have fewer characters. Thanks for reading and thinking about it.
Your writing is gorgeous...but you lost me in the first couple paragraphs. Felt like I needed to draw a diagram.
Perhaps introduce the characters more sparingly with more detail, give the reader time to digest each one.
Thanks for those words and the advice, Sally. It´s tough moving to a longer cruising speed. I guess that got in the way of listening to what I was trying to tell myself initially.:)
