Finally got to the end. Great, but rough, and that's not entirely a bad thing It's funny that you mentioned rushing the story, because, unfortunately, that's exactly how I felt in these last two chapters. Now, I'm not familiar with your intentions as a writer, but I read everything as if it's the draft of a novel on its way to a publisher. With that in mind, there's definitely some basic improvement to be made here that can take it to the next level... this story has great potential, it just needs a nudge in the right direction, I'd say. You have great skills as a writer already, I think you could get even better!

I can tell you have a lot of ideas you just want to get out there, and I think thats great! I've even done a few blog posts on slowing down as a writer because i used to be just as eager of a writer, I look forward to reading something of yours when you find your optimal rythym

Wow, thank you! I've been working on the story slowly but surely (I've been rather busy with stuff). I occasionally stop in the middle of a chapter and pick it up when I find more time, which might be part of the reason it's choppy in places. My intentions as a writer are basically work on bettering my skills right now, then once I've graduated college, try to send off a draft of something to a writing magazine or a publisher if I can get a contract. My dream is to be an author so right now it's just trying to grow into a better writer that can have a compelling story that gets published and possibly even onto the bestseller list (of course that's a dream and probably won't happen for a while). But thank you for the compliment! I do tend to rush things (my story Fall into Silence is evidence of that) but I've been trying to put on the brakes a bit and take time to develop characters and let the plot develop.
