The Woman Who Wanted To Love: A (short) Fable by John_Daily

This is a creepy little tale I wrote a number of years ago, while playing with the rhythm of the words and the fable format. I think it actually makes a better gamebook than a short story. Enjoy!

Wow, twist ending. The one thing that made me not give it five stars was the format, I found it a little clunky, and the changing of the words halfway through each section made it a little tricky for me. I loved the story though! It was very dark :)
I do suggest maybe using less passages, and maybe switch to twine? Otherwise the story was very good.
