I'm glad it raised all of those questions for you, and that you wanted to keep reading. Yes, they are answered soon in the story.

Jordan Mierek replied to Jordan Mierek's discussion COGLING: A Steampunk Faerie Tale in the group First Pages (Crit Group)"Thank you, Eden! I thought about what you said about a prologue, and had an idea to move the end of the chapter to the beginning. I'm not sure if it really works or not. If people still don't think the night…"

Ash, I'll play around with losing the first section. I'm always weary of flashbacks too soon in the story, and the ticking/light is important…"

Carolyn Chambers Clark said… Let's try first chapter and see how it goes. But I don't want to post my novel here. Maybe we email them to each other? What do you think?
BTW, I don't mean harsh, I mean specific and with suggestions for how to change it to make it better. Does that make more sense?
All Best,
Carolyn

Hi Jordan,
Sure, I'll be glad to try being your critique partner, but you have to go a little harder on my manuscript. Let me know what you think.
All Best,
Carolyn

Anne Severn Williamson said… - Hi Jordan! I came across an online teen writers magazine last fall that might be of some help to you. I cannot recall the name of the website. Perhaps you can find it under Teen Writers Online Magazine on Google or Bing. Good luck with publishing your short story!
