She is the only sound in the story, apart from the sound of the rain falling and her climax with her daughter was certainly intentional. In fact you are only the second person to have mentioned it...<br /><br />Your feedback tells me that I need to work much more on the story offline before taking it out for feedback :) Thanks again buddy!Siddhartha Joshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05491032744023383158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-26724914098448001872011-10-02T23:26:18.785+05:302011-10-02T23:26:18.785+05:30The following is my attempt towards constructive c...The following is my attempt towards constructive criticism for this story. Unfortunately, I could not separate my opinion out of it:<br /><br />I love the imagery in this work. But it's too "out there", you know? When you say "some screaming in joy" it feels deliberate. You gave life to the drops of water only for that phrase.<br /><br />Imagery should be an integral part of the story (and you've done a great job mixing coffee, rains, ragas and lovemaking), but it should not feel forced, you know? It should come naturally in the flow of the story.<br /><br />Also, I'm not sure if this was your intention, but involving Nandini's mother in the climax got a double take out of me. I get that you wanted to combine everyone's climax together, but the mother was mentioned only once earlier in the story and it's easy to miss her.<br /><br />Loved the idea, though, and I love the flow in the story, especially how sudden the climax is. Plus the atmosphere you've created is awesome!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12364648261052014402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-32646177578199388062011-09-30T11:50:20.909+05:302011-09-30T11:50:20.909+05:30That's amazing Express, usually people don'...That's amazing Express, usually people don't associate me with bringing smiles on their faces :) I am happy that the post could do that to u :)Siddhartha Joshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05491032744023383158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-51472951690382927602011-09-29T20:02:57.309+05:302011-09-29T20:02:57.309+05:30I had a HUGE smile on my face after i was done rea...I had a HUGE smile on my face after i was done reading this post! <br /><br />:) <br /><br />nice one.Expresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181434250459614635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-13614901839446576602011-09-29T15:30:53.896+05:302011-09-29T15:30:53.896+05:30@SEO: Absolutely...rains are truly amazing :)@SEO: Absolutely...rains are truly amazing :)Siddhartha Joshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05491032744023383158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-32189694527031299412011-09-29T14:56:49.053+05:302011-09-29T14:56:49.053+05:30i want long drive in rain with my friendsi want long drive in rain with my friendsSEO Updatehttp://www.seoupdate.weebly.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1827070520578521982.post-48875541304327770752011-09-29T14:55:58.330+05:302011-09-29T14:55:58.330+05:30I love rain.
