WIT: Frozen Dreams

Frozen Dreams

This is the title of the article I read on WIT(writers in touch). This website is basicly full of different writer's stories they posted. People can go and read some of them and you can also write your own. The have various contests that you can enter as long as you're a registered member. One of these stories caught my attention while I was glancing down the list of articles. I liked how the author made the dream come to reality. It had a very creative twist to it and the setting was out-of-this-world. Some of the descriptions he added set up a clear vision of where the characters were located. The location seemed to be in a cave with a monster that wants to kill this unidentified boy. This boy in her dreams seems like the hero that rescues her from this creature they encounter. The one part of of this story that I thought was completely crazy was when the girl realized that the dream so real. No names were mentioned because of the third-person narrative which made it kind of annoying hearing she and he over and over again. Toward the end of the story I was confused about the part where she was taking money from a mysterious man that was in the parking lot. Later I just guessed that she had some type of sickness and she didn't want to deal with the pain. I came to the conclusion that the pain was coming from home because of her parents fighting. She was under so much stress that she had to go out and that is where this dream she was having caught up to her. She was trapped and there was no way out and the boy was nowhere to be found. This particular story was interesting to me because it was horror and this attracts my attention anyways.
