Comment from Paul McFarland
Nicely told. The narrative is very smooth, and the reader is well hooked after a paragraph or two. You finish it off very nicely with some good advice.

Thanks Paul.
Comment from Donna G. (aka Sam Duck)
Nicely descriptive, I could imagine myself in that storm with you. In fact, even now I am kind of breathing like it's hot and humid and I'm battling the rain. I very much appreciated my trip to North Carolina today! Thanks for sharing!

Comment from zanya
So expertly told here, the prelude, the storm and its aftermath. The reader feels almost part of the drama which bears resemblance also to a movie clip - has to be in the winner's enclosure -has my vote - any more like this in the repertoire ?

Zanya, Wow, and wow! I am not a writer of prose, but I found myself caught in the river of life, started writing and the words just floated in. I can not express my feeling of deep gratitude for your validation! 🙏🙏🎶🎶🎶🎶
Comment from Sarah Robin
I enjoyed reading your story. The descriptions of the approaching storm were spot on. And, your descriptions of Blue Ridge made me homesick. You did a great job! Tar Heel Sarah

Comment from Thomas Blanks
A Summer Storm in the Blue Ridge is a well-written and descriptive story. Reading about the lightning almost raise the hair on my arms. If the author's job is to make the reader feel like they are there instead of just being told about something, this piece succeeds.

Thomas, Wow! Thanks many time over, While I am not a writer of prose, I dipped my toe into the river of life and let the words float to the surface. Best always!
Comment from Wendy G
A very descriptive piece about the storm and its prelude. The reader could feel your thoughts and emotions as the day progressed, and the increasing fear because such an event was not typical. Well written. Good wishes for your story in the contest.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Very well-told tale about an approaching storm. I lived 5 years in the Rockies and never saw a storm like yours, but the wind in the Rockies is deadly. I did notice a couple problems you might want to fix: after "open land" you have some weird symbols and a missing word in . . . made going ( ) slope . . . Best of luck in the contest.

Comment from RodG
This action-packed narrative kept me enthralled from start to finish. You are especially adept at SETTING THE SCENE and making the reader see and feel the approaching storm. Better yet is your description of your downhill rush and that rushing creek that almost trapped you. You have the tools to create a thriller, Writer! Great job. Rod
