Congratulations on your first milestone post. You're very brave attempting a contest right from the start. I'm wondering where the continuation of this story might lead. Good luck with the contest.


This was the beginning of my mothers undoing, and the moment my life changed forever. (mother's)

Mother was like a prophet bringing bad news to those who refused to listen and I was like a guardian angel (listen, you switched subjects)

Once the last note had diminished she spoke. (diminished,)

    Thank you! It will be a while before I continue this story. I'm planning a sequel to the tainted, a prequel with Silvester as the main character, and a collection of backstories for the main characters

    Wow! You really have a lot of work cut out for yourself!

    I know right. I imagine it will take about 2 years to complete the series as I am returning to work soon and won't be able to post or write as consistently as I am now. I hope to complete The Tainted by August before I'm completely integrated back into work. I also have a part time job as a piano player so I'm going to be quite busy!

    For sure :) At the very least I'll prioritize my Sunday posts about Acts. I'll definitely reply to you!

Nicely done! Amethyst's deep bond with her mother and the impact of her mother's gifts are beautifully shared. The descriptions and reflections on music add a lyrical quality to the piece. The suspense kept me engaged from beginning to end. Your talent for storytelling truly shines through - keep up the excellent work!

    Thank you :) I wrote this chapter years ago but never finished the story. Perhaps now is a good time to pick it up again
