Flash Fiction / The Mirror

You  have wonderful talent when it come to descriptive details make this piece come to life. It was so well done that I could actually invision this woman’s beauty as if I was standing write beside her.  There is absolutely nothing I would change about this piece.  So sad that we are our own worst critics and can see flaws in ourselves when others can’t.  You show great example of this with the woman in the mirror.  

I thought this was really good and insightful.

You’ve really captured the beauty that we see in others but cannot see in ourself.  I think the simplicity is the key.  

Felt it read very smoothly which is important when using so few words.  

Extemely relevent in these beauty obsessed lives we live in.  Definatly asks a few deeper questions.

Well done

Very beautifully written.  Nice descriptions.  You can really tell that the observer of this woman is completely absorbed in her beauty, and it draws the reader in as well.  Very heart-warming, in a bittersweet way.

I can relate to this. It seems like the moste beautiful girls don’t understand what they see as flaws are really just signs that they’re human and make them look all the better.

I like this as it is something I think alot of readers could sympathize with. Even though it is a pretty decent short story it feels like it could be the beginning of something more.
