Status Updates From Broken on the Inside

There Was an Old Man is an amazing story. Revolting and yet compelling. Love it.

The Man Who Fed Foxes - another strong story.

The second story Discomfort Food is an odd one that begins with talking food, but as I read on I came to understand the reason for it. It gives the story a blackly comic element, but it's another story where we see the psychological damage done to a character by others. Very good.

I'm going to review story by story. The first, Broken on the Inside is absolutely stellar. It blew me away. The characters, Kira and Connie, are realistic and their difficult mother-daughter relationship is well developed on the page.
The introduction of Pam works so well, and when things start to go wrong it's genuinely unsettling. It builds towards an inevitable conclusion, but hits you with a final twist. Fab.
