Thanks so much for this. After writing this it made me want to tackle it as an expanded novel, however I have two big projects underway and one thats been put on hold.
Absolutely love it! So much detail and specifics, I can tell you put alot of thought into it! I really fell in love with both Marlo and Fran, cheering for their happy ending-human, clone, alien-it was great! Also, I like the way you introduce your reader into the world slowly without bombarding them with a lot of info all in one. You kind of weave it into the plot as the story unfolds and make the reader want more info on the different protocols of Marlo's strange existence. This is a technique I am still trying to master in my own writing, so this was very fun to read as well for that example. Great job!
