2004 Author Reviews for
Oakenshield

Like other pieces of Oakenshield's, her shorter ones convey some strong feelings and images without being too sappy.

Oak's dramatic style fits the drabble and category well. She writer serious fiction with a wistful sadness.

Oakenshield picked up on a lesser-known character and in just 200 words, helped us see why he made his choice and how it might have felt to do so.

More straightforward pieces from Oakenshield, where the characters and emotions are strong, and the images are easy to visualize. Oaks makes her stories seem very real and believable as well as entertaining.

Oak is also another marvelous writer. I can almost believe that she was there… her style is that clear and there's always a bit of melancholy that I like.
