Please bare in mind this is my first one :/ I’d love someone to write a sequel or prequel though, I tried to make the ending open so it should be able to fit with a whole range of ideas for a sequel.
Welcome to Ficly! This was a beautiful scene, but I have to share some thoughts. You often put two ideas together in one sentence without a lot to tie them together. It would work for poetry, but not so well in prose. You have good descriptions of the rain forming puddles, and the path in different seasons. But that is all you have here. Who is “I” in sturdy boots? Is the path significant? This is kind of like a description of a picture, without a story behind it. I do have ideas about the path though, so that is good. The sentences just bug me.
Thanks for your feedack :) Yeah, I see what you mean, I have a bad habit of rambling and assuming everyone will know my thought process without me explaining it! The ‘I’ thing is because I adapted this from something longer I did where there was a main character. In this I haven’t decided where the path goes although in the original it goes towards a school- I figured if I left it open here I could return to it or people could interpret it themselves.
I kind of think it needs to branch off; take this person to their real life in the unchanging city. Show some stone buildings and difficult bosses or teachers who never change either. Then the path is a haven.
