Redditor nails it: Make me sympathize with both characters [Article]

I read this story out at our Toastmasters meeting yesterday, because it was so well written. The writing prompt was "Wife kills husband. Make me sympathize with both characters". And this is the author acknowledging the praise he received for his writing:

In response to a lot of your questions, I'm not a writer, just a jackass with some free time. I'm still in college and trying to figure out what the fuck to do with my life. I'm really glad that a website like reddit exists where I can practice my writing and learn from some really bright people around the world.
