How beautiful is this?! So well done, not at all sentimental, and filled with all the specifics to help us through it beat by beat! Those black rooftop tiles getting all pinked up with her little pink chalk - even the title is a winner!

A beautiful snippet into a father-daughter relationship that can easily have you in tears in such a short time frame. A great tender short piece handled with absolute care.

I saw "Pinktop" at a festival in Atlanta, and it was truly a highlight. The depth and vulnerability that Padgett is able to capture in so few pages is a marvel. This text is rich, tight, intimate, and tender. An absolute treat.
