This is from one of the first flash challenges at Liberty Hall. I'm not sure if I just want to revise it or if I want to do more with it.
Right now I'm looking for any feedback, critiques, or brainstorming ideas that anyone has time to offer.
Thanks guys

They say a child doesn’t start making coherent memories until after age of three or four, but that isn’t always true. At least, I don’t think it is.
For me, it seems as though I have always had memories. I remember sitting in my crib, playing with my stuffed animals; and standing in front of the oven, watching mom’s chocolate chip cookies bake. I remember learning to walk and talk -- struggling to feel coordinated. I remember...
It’s just that now, I’m not so sure those memories are mine. In fact, I’m not so sure any of my memories are mine.

I'll read.
BTW, if you also post this at Liberty Hall under PSC Robyn Hood, it'll be even easier than email.

Thanks, Will. Actually, I already have it posted in my PSC forum. I can PM it to you or you can comment in the topic if you prefer.

I'd like to read the whole story, too.

Sounds interesting. I'll read it if you send it my way.

It's a fast starter, strong conflict right out of the gate and escalating to a hook very quickly.

Thanks for the feedback.
Everyone who has offered to read should have it now.

I don't have time to read it myself, but I just wanted to say I can't spot anything to crit in the opener. Really good stuff, and a sweet last line.
