This is good stuff. I don't usually read long-abandoned works, and I've never read a Labyrinth story, but I may continue with this one anyway. The language is sparse and meaningful, no fluff or filler, which means there's a whole lot of story packed into these 80k words. I do hope you finish it, though; even after seven years, it's not too late to pick up the pen again. I started writing here in 2009 after a forty-year writing hiatus; now I have something like two million words posted in various sites. You haven't waited too long to continue. All you need is to rekindle your love for the story.

I understand that you might have a writers block with this story but i think you should continue it, i absolutely love how Sarah is reacting to the labyrinth, i read all of the chapters in a day, please continue and thank you for writing

My heart and soul goes out to you, Kelly and your family. I have struggled with and continue to struggle with difficult things in my past. Kelly is lucky to have her family's support and love, just like I do.

Please continue with the story i would love to know how it ends

that was epic! oh, you have to finsh the story, im just dying to know what happens next. i noticed that as the story progressed, your writng got better and and better, now you've become a masterful storyteller. great taste in music by the way, if you have a youtube account i would love to add you so i can creep up on your playlist. just saying...

if i bribe you with a nice comfy seat on my favorite authors will it inspire the 30th chapter to come dancing out of the lovely imgination of yours?

I was pumped when I read the summary because it reminded me of a dream I just had where Sarah goes to the crazy home and tiny book people tried to capture me in a boarding school garden. So you can see why i'm excited to read this story, so far its good. But then again, it is the first chapter...

great chapter! the dream sequences are soo cool! i laughed when i saw the cafe paradiso, my town has a place with the same name on campus and they have open mics as well! Anyway awesome job! for a while i was worried this would be one of those fics where sarah's crazy at the end...it may still turn out like that, but at least i wont expect it!

So common to avoid the intense emo pain in life...we all have our coping mechanisms until we find the support we need to face what we need to face...eliminate the lies once and for all.

Well written. Glad to have you back:)

WOW. So I am new to your story (and the gods help me I am not a very patient woman. ACK!)Shed some tears, smiled some. I am lost in the sad madness of this story. It steals your breathe and twists something deep inside you, awakening that which once laid buried and dormant. It's 3:24 am here. I have been reading this story in to the night. I hope that your next update is not far out and may the writing gods speed your pen and gift it with life and legends. You truly have a talent for taking from life around you and weaving it in to our very souls. I hope that your sister is quite well. I hope that Sarah will soon be well. I long for her and Jareth to share some type of romantic moment. I so love those!

Commentators note: I tend to get long winded when a story strikes me as your has! Happy Word Weaving!

Wow! Nice to see that you are writing again.

I hope that the Labyrinth is able to heal Sarah where everyone else has either failed or made her worse.

Good story! Never too late to finish it! Like that Sarah is the reason why the Labyrinth is coming back to life. Metaphor for both Sarah and Jareth.

Liked how it smiled at her in the end of this chappie:)

Thank you for sharing the gift God gave you with us.

God bless!

Well, I must say that this is the first Labyrinth fic I've read to make it into my faves. So, I guess that could be considered some sort of honor... ;

I really liked this. It was immensely emotional and had a lot of thought put into it. I've been enjoying Sarah's progress throughout the entire fic. I'm kinda sick-minded that way. I need a character to suffer thoroughly before they can pick themselves back up.

I spent the whole day reading this as soon as I found it in one of those C2 Archives. I'll go back to read a couple parts as soon as I've sent this review. I really would appreciate an update, as would everyone else who has read this, but I understand that you need to take your time about it. That's fine. Just don't die on us first. (Like you said.) Assuming you're not dead already, it'd be nice to see some more of this. :D

What a sad but beautiful story. Sad because of what she had to go through with the institution and her own parents. This story has a very spiritual feeling to it. I like how you added that part about the Native American Reservation. I once went to one when I was little and I remember sitting in a Teepee while our host passed around Buffalo jerky and told us old Native American folk tales and legends. Please update this story. I would love to hear more and I really want to know what happens between Jareth and Sarah.

This is definitely one of my favourite stories, thank you so much for writing it! I hope you update soon. I particularly like the part of the story where she is stuck in the institution, let's hope more angst is on the way.
