Thank you for sharing this story in The Ink Well, for your dedication to supporting others in the community, and promoting The Ink Well prompts 🙂
Your story has a good foundation and nice structure. I'd love to see you develop these stories a bit more, providing more depth and context. To this end, there are a few things that I feel would have elevated your submission, which I shall share below:
Isabela's introduction to the story threw this reader off a little as the relationship between Anya and Isabela is not established already in the story so we have no idea who this person is or how she fits into the picture. If we knew upfront that Isabela was the director's daughter, and that she would take the lead should anything happen to Anya, it would create more interest and tension when we see her turn up on Anya's doorstep. It would also be good to have a deeper understanding of Isabela's relationship with both her mother and Anya, so that we can understand better why it is so important to her for Anya to return.
You tell us that Anya was desperate and heartbroken at having to give up her dream but it would be more impactful if you showed us her desperation and heartbreak. To this end, take a look at this article in The Ink Well Show, Don't Tell
Anya's chosen career after dance would make more sense to the reader if there had been some foreshadowing of her skills in this area, earlier in your piece. It would make her career change from dancer to photographer more of a nature segue. We also wonder what the relevance of her husband's career as a pilot may be to the story ie: how does this profession impact their family structure, Anya's life etc. In all stories, we should strive to add details that enhance or further the plot and story line. To answer that question, we can ask ourselves, would it make a difference to the story if he had not been a pilot, or if you had not stated his profession?
We look forward to your next story, @fragozar01 and hope you find the above guidance helpful to the development of your craft.
