Nicely done.
God bless~
But - what a great story you have. Your dialogue is good. Jessy talks realistically and you are excellent at stirring up emotion. Her fear was palpable, as was her relief later. That's stuff you can't teach, so definitely keep writing - you've got talent for sure.
I liked your addiction.
Use more paragraph separations in your writing. (Unless this was made to be this way.)
This was just a very interesting way of connecting google to an addiction.
These lines are pretty nifty:
"a many-headed beast that tried to pierce through her shield of shame."
"She closed her eyes while she inhaled the perfume and was permeated by a Presence: the Solution to every problem, the Answer to every question."
Just some tips: find someone to help you proofread--preview your entry before submitting it, and you can put in paragraph breaks--finally: Keep writing!
"Lowering her gaze again, she noticed that one of the brown floor tiles was broken and grey dust had crept into the cracks, forming a crooked finger that pointed in her direction."
Breathtaking. I have much to learn from you methinks . . .
I would suggest that when you copy your work over into the challenge, double check to ensure that there is space in between each paragraph.
Great use of the topic. Keep writing.
As others have commented, paragraphs would have made this much easier to read. But I am so glad I got through it, as it has so many great qualities from which I can learn. Keep writing!
And... next time I'll do better than submitting an article without checking it properly (because I tried to squeeze it in between many other activities)!
