* "Emptiness" by DevoSpudC (disillusionment) 9, 10, 10
* "Emptiness" by DevoSpudC (cwilson9@ix.netcom.com). Erika has always known herself to be beautiful: she won her first beauty pageant at age eleven. Tonight her boyfriend has been murdered in a drive-by shooting and she has run off into the street, tried to kill herself, been rescued by a passing motorist, and has essentially been raped by that man. This is a weird and confusing story - but deliberately so. It's not really all that sexy, but it certainly did hold my attention. Ratings for "Emptiness" Athena (technical quality): 9 Venus (plot & character): 10 Celeste (appeal to reviewer): 10 |
