Hi, I'm in
Hi, I'm in the middle of a story that I've been writing for a couple of years (on and off). I hope to someday get it published, but right now, I am writing so slowly that I'm afraid I'll be an adult before it's done! I'll post part of it sometime soon. I've got about three and a half chapters done, and I need some critics besides my parents and cousin! Please say what you feel, but not too harshly (if you don't like it). I'm open to criticism, but not really strong criticism (I get WAY to much from my brother, who thinks everything I write is corny and dumb). Thanks!

Not bad, but not my style. And you did take the eyes from Princess Bride.

I'd say it's good! I like the detail, and how the story is! Have you written anymore? I'd like to read more!

Thank you!! I have written more... a LOT more, but I don't want to give too much away!! I trust you all, but what if there is some weird person out there who is just trying to crush the hopes of a poor little writer by stealing the story and turning it into a slightly rewritten version of it that turns out to be a best seller???? I would be heartbroken!!!!!!! Though I do wish I could post more! Maybe someday.... I'll have to talk to my "assistant" about it. (Daddy) But I'm soo glad you like it!!!!!!

Ok, when I did all those smileys, I meant for them to go side by side, not all down like that!!! I don't think I'll do that again. It looks bad. :)

I really like it!:):):) From what you gave us to read, I think that I would really enjoy it.:):):) I'm writing a book too, so I know how hard it can be. But I can type fast, and the story idea has been in my head for a while-I think I'm on chapter 12 page 100 something.:):):)

I'm a pretty fast typer, toooooo!

Awesome!:):):) Hee, hee, hee!:):):)

WOW, I am in chapter three, on page 35, and I've been working on it for years. Of course, there have been BIG blank spots in that time where I had MAGOR writers block, and other times where I was just afraid of writing... but still, I type really slowly.

PAGE 100?!??!?!?!??! Man, I'm a really fast typer, but I'm a super slow writer. The words don't come to my head that easily. I've been working on a story (it's really good, I think) for a half a year, and I'm only on page twenty! :O:O

Hey, you are way ahead of me!!!! I jealous!!! I'm soooo slow at typing!! Sometimes I can think really fast, like, if I get started, it's just enough momentum to get me going really fast, but then my fingers are three miles behind my brain, and it takes a lot of patience (and notes) to catch up. :) :) :)
(January 2, 2009 - 3:54 pm)
Hee, hee, hee!:):):) I get the fast typing from my mom.:):):) She can type SUPER FAST!!!:D:D:D

*whiney voice* Ah!! No FAIR!!!!!!!!!!
You are SO lucky. But you know, Chatterbox has REALLY improved my spelling and (fingertip) typing!!! I'm WAY faster now!!!!! And, I know where all the letters are without looking. I used to have to search and search until I found the right letter. UGG!!!! :)

Ok, so I want to say, thank you to all of you who have been so supportive!!!!! Are you sure that's all that could be changed? Don't be afraid to speak up, I do want to know if it's no good. :) Thanks again!!!
