Six-word Story - Palindrome

by ~astropix

Mirrors promised kindness for all girls.

52 Week Six Word Story Challenge - Palindrome

Written for the six word story group [link]

I thought I would try this. :) I have a much larger story about this in the works, but it condenses nicely.

Edit: Change the punctuation a bit when reading it backwards, and it'll make more sense. :)

It's interesting!

I like how you focus on the mirrors for one and then girls for the other. It's quite cool how both subject matters are at either side of the piece itself, but I think that's just me. o.O

The concept is great and I like the way you've approached it as well. You've managed to incorporate a bit of personification to make it more interesting, so that's good about this piece as well.

I knew the extent of the story I could tell for the first direction, and the second story really came from wording the first so it *could* be read both ways. The challenge really shaped this.

Thank you so much for commenting. I'm looking forward to trying out more prompts and getting better. I think this is a great exercise in storytelling.
