My name is Raisa and I am a closer.1
To many a closer won't mean much. I'm not a case closer for the police or a lawyer. I don't go around closing cabinet doors behind lazy people. I don't close a door after you've walked through. That would imply that I also open them, but that's far from the truth.2
I am an eye closer, a room closer. So yeah, I guess I do shut the door eventually. I am part of an organization of assassins, and I'm the end deal. I'm the one they call when things need cleaning up. I wipe down the room. I clean up fingerprints, the blood and any other fluids to be found.3
My job's not glamorous, but it pays the bills and there's an added security a young woman needs in this day and age.4
Normally I'd be off the radar of the law, but just twenty-four hours ago, they showed up early. Now my life is at stake.5
I've not slept or eaten since that botched job. Here's my story...

Somehow I can already picture Raisa in my head, and you haven't described her at all. I like the brevity of this intro; I must immediately continue!
-
Ooh, this is going to be a seriously good series to read. What a good opening, I can hear her voice in my head. What more can I say? One thing! I am horribly jealous!

Thanks Lis. I am almost done with this. I can't believe how incrediably fun this has been to write. I may have to try my hand at these type more often.

Line 3, "I am a an eye closer" delete the "a".
Ohhh, this is SO original...not even kidding. I've never read anything like this! Poor girl...
Something that strikes me: my friend's name is Raisa,and it's a very unusual name. o.O
Good story!

I like the way you introduced the story and the character.
Good morning Brooke, just made it in under the wire
. Now you can zap the works 
.
Is this your first try at mystery writing? Nice job.
I like the way you introduced the story and the character. No doubt that this is going to be a bit of a brutal tale with lots of gore. And your closer is interesting—still doing a normal female task—cleaning up the mess
.
Can’t really say more since there isn’t much to comment on or edit.
I would like to read more, hope you continue with this.

I hope that I can hold up to the idols here on SW (you, Andy, Chryssi, etc) and make you guys proud
I have no idea what I'm doing If I flounder you'll let me know right?
Thanks

A crime mystery. That is new for you. Sounds interesting.
I like the 'This is my story...' at the end. Makes it sound like an intro to Law and Order: Criminal Intent.
Looking forward to seeing where you go with this.

You know it. I don't even know where I'm going with this, but I couldn't resist.
Thanks Greg

i like the term "closer." it looks as interesting in non-serif font as bloodred rose petals on black carpet.

Thanks, I think

A mystery
New is good. I can't wait to read the rest of the story. I LOVE CRIME MYSTERIES.

Thanks. This is something really new for me, so I'll just have to see where it takes me
Again thanks

Interesting. Sounds like something I'd definiately read. It does seem interestly placed with "Fox" coming out soon (the movie with Angelina Jolee as an assassin). Still, it sounds interesting.
-
-
Thanks Cory. Will see what happens with this. I won't get to see 'wanted' until it comes out on DVD or payperview, but I hope my story is different.
Brooke

Well, this was an excellent beginning. I want to see where the story goes from here. It sounds as though it will be most intriguing.
-
-
I will see what I can come up with. Sometimes I just get an idea and it just stays as the first part and sometimes I can get the story out. We'll see about this one.
Thanks for reading.

Hello Brooke! Definitely something totally new for you!. In spite of Naiyi Buku's comment I think this is a good start. Calling the main character a "closer" piqued my interest and that's why I continued reading. There are some typos but I know you will clean them up before you close!

Anayas Good to hear from you. And thanks on the comment.
Typos??? Man I thought I had gotten all of those. Don't tell me they are puncation slips? I'm terrible at those.
Will dutifully go through and see if I can find them.
Thanks again.

It was okay.A little boring.....you need to try to make your stories interesting.No hard feelings.
-
-
This was a beginning idea and only partly done. This was in no way the whole thing.
But as you said no hard feelings.
-
-
I like where this is going and will definately read more in the future if there is more.
-
-
Thanks. This is something new for me and so I am playing it by ear.
Again thanks
