OpenStudy (owlcoffee):

I don't mean to be cruel, but this is far from having quality for an editorial. There are grammatical imperfections, inconsice context descriptions and too vague as well. This looks more like a draft rather than a finished product.

OpenStudy (joehoffy):

im not remotely done yet. this is just to see if ppl would acually read it.

OpenStudy (owlcoffee):

I would suggest you take on a better introduction, if it is going to be "in media res"; try giving hints of the context in question and try giving a description about the characters a little more detailed so the reader can have a good idea and this will strengthen the quality of any character. There's nothing wrong in being a little fancy, some strategies make the story a little more lively, this implies writing a little more loose and colourful, which means using methaphors and a change of perspective. A second read is always good, that helps to reduce the grammatical errors and also correct the sentences to make more sense in the story. Writing a story also involves researching your main theme, let it be alien life, sci-fi machinery or in this case "radiation". "in media res" is an interesting way to begin a story, though it always leaves the reader questioning "why?" and "how?" which are questions you don't want to leave afloat for too long. The human attention-span is of about 45 min- 1h and you might want to at least throw a bone to keep the interest going.
