A tale we all know and love
But this is no fairy tale, this is something a bit more... hungry

I tried to do a different style since it was a fairy tale, i hope it worked out

And honestly, it read out well.

Especially with how it's just easily set up to invade and nom a 'sequel' fairy tale. If stars align on that... ;)

This is awesome story. My only wish is that you had more description of the feelings of the characters slow down just a little. Not much just w little. Try slowing down as your story approaches your climax to build tension and excitment.

I love the role reversal and your description of the wolfs reaction was excellent.

Don't apologize. Ironically I am working on my own RRH story but mine is different. I haven't shared it yet because it is still in the revision phase. And I am struggling on how to handle the valid feedback I got.

But back to your writing. It is really good I like your chacater's and their motivations. All good characater's should have a goal on their scenes and you succeed.

Also your tension and build up is really good it could just use a little tweaking on your pacing and your tension. Pacing is hard. You have a lot of potential keep up the good work.

Thank you! My biggest issue is starting most sentences with names and pacinf

Starting sentences with out a noun is hard.
But instead of saying He threw a punch say

His hand punched.

Make the part of the body or the object doing the action lead.

You can also lead with words or a quote.


My problem is I make over engineered garbage that is grammatically correct but hard to read.

Example:
His hips swayed to the rhythm of the driving, insistent rhythm streaming wirelessly into a single on-ear headphone. It was this recording—the original Broadway cast, every note, every word, every breath of the performance—that moved him as he danced with his annoyed but passive cat.

If you are interested I will share my draft. I need
proofreaders to advise me on the flow of it because I can't finish it till I figure out the pacing of the final scene.
