RE: Your womb was my home [ENG][ESP]

in The Ink Welllast year

I liked the narrator's voice in your story. It feels very natural, mature with a bit of melancholy. Very nice.

That book you have in your hands of my biography, tells you several methods I used to survive the fire in my house, the diagnosis of a serious illness, depression and the illness of my only son, this little 10 year old boy that you can see here sitting next to me.

I was probably helped by my experience as a mother and observing how my little one, more than depending on me, also has the capacity to understand what I explain to him and his expressions of security, were part of the inspiration for this narrative. Thank you for such a detailed commentary.

That makes sense. Writing from your own experiences helps with the narrative flow and facilitates various elements of story telling.
