I have been dropped in the middle of a novel and I fricking love it.

The voices of your characters are deliciously addicting. I love the sass and points of view you present. I would love to learn more about C.C. and her vampire friends. What a refreshing departure from Twilight!

Please write more! Next week, I would very much like to see more of these characters!

Hahaha I'm so glaaad! I've had a very vague idea for this universe (which is still unnamed and driving me up a fucking WALL) for a few months now and haven't even started writing it properly (tried, then realised that I didn't have a plot yet, so I'm just ... attempting to write any bit possible now). So far everything I've written is from C.C.'s point of view, though it was originally going to be both hers and Flynn's, so we'll see what I really decide to do and what works best.

I'm soooo glad it worked out for you, though -- I wasn't sure if people were going to be confused or not! 8D (also: that was an insanely fast comment considering the fact that the poll hasn't even closed to my knowledge. YOU ARE SUPER READER.)

Later tonight I'm going to take a look at your completed poem! I am excited.

It was a bit confusing because as the reader, I didn't have many facts to start out with (but that's okay, intrigue won out and I was like ! ! ! What, it's over??).

Hahaha, I refresh my friend's page a lot and saw your entry pop up. It seems a lot of people (myself included) have not been updating as often as we used to. So imagine me, all smiles and giggles, when I noticed your entry at the top of my page. I read it on my phone because my wifi is being completely wonk-a-donk.

YAY. Can't wait. Still ironing out some kinks, but let me know how it works for you. :3

I'm glad it wasn't too bad, then ... I meant to go through it and make certain things more clear, but unfortunately I was running low on time and had somewhere to be. And now I don't really consider it fair to edit it considering ... well, the poll should be up soonish and editing now that I've gotten a bit of feedback might not be totally fair. XD

I did start writing another part of the novel but stopped working on that when i realised i needed to write my entry for this week. lolol.

And yaaay I will indeed let you know!

I did feel like I'd been dropped into the middle of something, but it didn't take much reading to feel like I was going right along anyway. Strong characters can pick up a reader and convince them to go just about anywhere... kind of like a persuasive guy in an ice-cream truck luring kids to follow him down the road! These characters have a great voice and they're easy to want to get to know.

I'm happy it worked out! The universe needs a bit of work (I don't have a concrete plot, beginning, or real mythology worked out, but this is a start), but I felt a need to write something in it, and I'm glad it wasn't terribly bemusing.

I like the peek into the world you offer us here. It's easy to understand without bogging us down with a lot of info all at once about the characters and setting, which I like. :)

I like all the different personalities here. Everyone has their own specific voice and you can tell them apart easily.

I would definitely like to know more about C.C. and the vampires and Murphy. :)

Thank you! I'm sure there'll be more entries with this universe in the future. :) I'm glad it wasn't too hard to follow.

Thank you! I'm sure there will be more in the future -- this is (so far) only the first thing I've written for this novel/project/whatever, so more shall be coming. :) I'm glad it worked for you.

Thanks for the comments, Thora! As usual, I was rushed this week -- surprise, surprise. XD I'm glad you liked it regardless of faults, though!
