100WC- Eimear B

​This was without a doubt the scariest moment in our lives. As we stepped into the forest, all I could think of was all of those horror movies I had seen of people disappearing in a forest. I could tell by Marie’s unsteady breathing that she was as terrified as myself. We heard a crunch of a pile of leaves behind us and we turned around and our deafening screams echoed through the cold night… We reassured each other that it was just a squirrel or something. Just as we thought everything was ok, we turned around and saw my infuriating brother!

Wow Eimear! This story is packed with superb phrases and vocabulary! I loved 'unsteady breathing' as it showed the reader how the character was feeling. It also brings the reader right into the scene, I felt I was an eyewitness! Again, your use of onomatopoeia 'a crunch' again engaged my senses and your use of the prompt 'deafening screams' at that point, kept me on alert!
Your story ended with it being your 'infuriating brother' It left me with questions as to what you had done to annoy him so much!! We have all been in this situation with a sibling so I had plenty of example to draw from and potential answers to my questions.
Well done, Eimear! It's clear how hard you have worked on this story!

A brilliant descriptive piece Eimear, the reader was there beside your characters all the way through your 100 WC. Great use of adjectives, adverbs, using our senses,and a twist at the end, I could finally breathe again when the bother appeared, phew.
Keep writing!
