good job with the arithmetic there! that first review is stupid. maybe it's just cuz i'm bais (or because i've read it already) but i mean DUH you don't know where the hell the ship came from. it's the first damn chapter. and you're setting it up right? it's not like you're going to just bust through and give everything away in the first 18 pages. i mean what kind of books does this guy read? kids novels? and while house of autumn is supposed to be a kids' novel i'd rather it be more along the lines of pullman and less along the lines of potter.

you know what i'm saying? and even freakin' rowlings wouldn't give everything away in the first 18 pages.

i mean if they wanted you to make the whole story clear in one except then it's your excerpt choice that's wrong right? but why would you want to give everything away in one excerpt? no one would want to read your book if you did that.

hahaha now i'm ranting.

anyway congrats! i hope you win! because you're the best. and that's not because i know you or anything.
