Discussion of "Little Things ch. 3" by imadj

Fantastic. I've just read Chapters 1 and 2 as well, and from me you get 15 stars (to be divided as SM sees fit.)

imadj...another really touching chapter. And with a little something special added…TWINS. I’m so excited for Maggie…while at the same time, I’m so pained for her. Once again you’ve managed to elicit a rollercoaster of feelings from me. You have a special touch with that. Now shes gotta pick TWO baby names.
The only thing I would have liked more of is for you to expound on the section below. ( I pasted it at the bottom)
I thought it was a brilliant idea…to have her get these little glimpses into the lives of others. You could have maybe detailed one or two…had her express how she wished she could change places with one of the woman she saw at a table…sipping wine…with her husband…or playing with the kids in the backyard… I don’t know. just a thought I had when I read it. I was like, ‘this is such a great little concept for this story…I wish imadj would have made it last longer somehow.’ Me being selfish again and wanting MORE! haha . I gave you a Fantastic Five and would easily have given more if it were possible.

Here’s what you wrote:
“Later on the train into town, she sat with her face pressed up against the window watching all the houses as they passed by. Little secret, fleeting glimpses into other people's moments.”

dogdeity, that is an excellent suggestion. I went back and re-read it and you are right on the money there. It should have had something else. It's a thought I often have, about trains going by people's homes. And last summer they put a train right by my house and now here I am on the other side of the window! (Scary thought, that!) Anyway, thanks for your comment and your very thoughtful idea...
