RE: Unrivaled

Welcome to The Ink Well!

Please note that if you are writing fiction you should use #fiction. If you are writing creative non-fiction, you should use #creativenonfiction. There is no tag #creativefiction.

Your story could use an edit to identify and correct issues with grammar and punctuation. It will improve the flow of your writing and elevate your story. You refer to it all being a dream a couple of times during this story. Generally writers are advised to step away from turning entire stories into dreams as it tends to make the reader feel cheated after investing their time in the characters and their lives. Your multiple use of the blurb made it a little confusing for this reader as I now unsure if any of it was real or whether the entire thing from start to finish was a dream within a dream.
