WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY SHORT STORY?
Q: WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY SHORT STORY? My sneakers thrown against the sidewalk hot. It had rained the night before and the smell of dust floating in the humidity of late summer.
A: Well, the story was interesting, but you have a bit of a problem. You are totally exaggerated descriptions. Everything is too waaaaaaaaaaaay described. Examples:
You are wearing a blue raincoat and blue shorts. We do not need to know what is your wardrobe.
Well, apart from a few spelling mistakes and ambiguities, it is not bad. However, you are much too descriptive in some places and not enough in other descriptions. For example, you describe exactly what the two of you emotionally and look in great detail, but when you enter the torture chamber, you simply choose its appearance.
Very detailed, perhaps a little too detailed. do not expect that the end of everything.

Borders on the brink of liquidation
by Alexandra Biesada
Assuming stores in each of the chains follow generally the same presentation, I think B&N does a better job with the ambiance of its stores. While its Nook has probably contributed most to the company’s overall resilience, I think its store layout and design have given it the edge among the brick-and-mortars left out there, particularly over Borders.
There’s a definite and charming personality to, say, the one at the Arboretum here in Austin. It’s both cozy and expansive, busy and yet not smothering. The atmosphere just seems more “booky” and inviting. Borders stores weren’t unpleasant, just a lot more non-descript.
