I trust that your patience and historically-proven aptitude for distilling the truth of events from the muddled fog of contentious viewpoints will inhibit you from leaping to a firm and resolute condemnation of my actions until you hear me out to the full. Let us see if I cannot, in time, convince you of my benevolence by offering another perspective on the events which preceded my downfall and which led me to assume this sorrowful state in which you now observe me, a perspective which, I hasten to warn you, runs contrary on many points t...
Outstanding reviews
I was excited to see this highlighted on the shortlist. I think it's got an amazing command of language and innovation. Wonderful job.
Thank you for the kind words! I look forward to reading your stories as well.-H.M.Pierce
This is amazing and vital. Personifying negative self talk and doubt and insecurity...all those things that put us down and keep us there. In truth I've been battling this demon myself and it does help to think of it as a 'thing' that I can keep locked away inside a cage in my mind.

Thank you for the kind review, Derrick. I’m glad to hear my story was useful as well as entertaining. You might be interested to know that it was because of reading your short story “Speed Fate” that I decided to submit to Reedsy in the first place. Thank you for the inspiration and the positivity you give to this community!Cheers,-H.M.Pierce
Wow . That's amazing. Glad I inspired you to jump in! You are a very welcome addition! Looking forward to reading more of your work!
This was so good! It was a no-brainer for me to shortlist it 😊 well done and I look forward to reading other stories by you in the future!
Thank you Pauline for the kind review. You inspire me to continue to write!-H.M.Pierce
good story, would read again :D
Hello!Oh my goodness, what an interesting idea! I thought that your narrator had such a stunning voice and the peace, while confusing in the beginning, ended up being a stunning work of art at the very end. I also thought that your choice to include the reader in that final portion of the story was brilliant, because we have all experienced those kinds of conversations with self doubt before. I’m so glad the story decided to have a happy ending and my final word is of congratulations!!
Fine entry work here. Congrats.
Thank you!
My pleasure.
