i just finished reading the whole thing! i love the story...it's awesome. Just one thing that i think you should work on: spelling. Just do a little spell-check or read-over before you post. You know, sometimes that's the difference between being taken seriously as an author and...not. Not trying to criticize, just be constructive i guess. :) Good luck...and update soon!!
I thought about that actually as i was reading it, because i found the reading was really difficult - although the story is wonderful!! However, the more i thought about it, the more i realized that the misspellings/bad grammar is almost a wonderful additive to this creation because (in my mind anyway) i felt that everyone's entries occur in a diary - even possibly a blog, and especially in this day and age many people dont' necessarily worry about spelling and grammar. I guess it just makes it a little more authentic. One suggestion (going along with this) is perhaps some of your characters are really good spellers, and others not so much. some might use slang, others might use large superfluous language. many writers may use that to not only distinguish between characters, plus to make it realistic, but also to give a character some background and depth

Thanks for all your suggestions and ideas! I really apprecate it...I think I'm going to start to spell check my entries...just to make the reading easier. I'd rather it be easier for people to read than for it to be complelty authentic...although authentic is good too :O) Thanks again and hope you keep reading! --HGM
