Summary:

“So… I’m dead?”

“Yupp,”

“Which dead is this?” She asked looking around wearily, eyes roaming in the hazy darkness. He raised an eyebrow in question. She shrugged listlessly, hands digging into her mint green scrub pants. “You know. Is it Christmas Carol? Or I’m a restless soul that needs to realize I’m ready to go?”

“That all depends,” He smiled slowly, an almost teasing laugh hissing out from between his teeth as he spoke.

“On what?” She looked at him, eyes wide in confusion.

I actually really enjoyed  this piece! I really liked your interpretation of limbo. And I liked the message of learning how to forgive yourself. I think that's a message that we all need to remember sometimes. Thanks for sharing your writing, and keep up the good work! =)

Also, if you have only one "chapter" your work should be submitted under general fiction and not the novel category.

The grammar could use some work, a lot of the dialogue is choppy and the flow is a little awkward. A reasonable first attempt.
