That was so good!

Welcome to Reedsy! So glad you were shortlisted so we could read your story and discover your writing. The story and the way you have told it is so clever. The use of the scrabble board works really well and I can't wait to read more of your stories. Congratulations on being shortlisted!
This was such an effective story with an excellent moral, Kajsa! I really enjoyed your writing, and the message is one that will stay with me, as so very well depicted by your narrator (or your narrator's People :). Great entry, and welcome to Reedsy!
Thank you so much. There's nothing like writing a story and then knowing someone read it.
