And, you want to know what has happened? See how my fist post just says hi? Well, that's because my mom read my story, because I was telling her what Yellow wrote, and now she says I'm not allowed to write anymore. Thanks. So, now I can't write for fun on this. I can't write at all. Please keep your snappy and rude comments to yourself please.

CAN be,but i doubt they always are.Most probably he only does that to show the intensity of whats going on... or the lack of it...or something. Well, i'll prolly never read a book written by him anyway. Latvia doesnt like popular writers... except for like Meyer and Rowling /fail (and i never said patterson's an idiot. i just trust ten famous-er writers judgement more) Im sorry,but ,do you know what the sole purpose of a forum is? To communicate. You put stuff up here for discussion, like it or not. People like that really annoy me. All they wanna hear is praise. Lifes not a playground or a chocolate desert. Plus, i was only trying to help,i wasn't attacking you(even though you pretty much flared up and spew mad cannibal rabbits at me)

excuse me, but i just googled how long a chapter has to be, and they say it can anywhere from a paragraph or 2 to sixty pages. So it can vary. All that matters is that an idea is put down and set straight. So see, no one here is right at all. Everyone's writing is different. Me, I like to make my chapters 7,000 words each (12 pages), and sometimes that can be a bad thing. But you know what, its what I want. i dont give one single care about what other people think because all that matters is that you're giving your best effort into it. It's the writing that matters, not the number of pages or words you put in. This is not going against or siding with anyone. I am just stating the truth And seriously, critizing James Patterson, yeah, real mature. What did he do wrong? Become an excellent writer? Have a talent? Someone, quick, call the police!

Thalia is my cousin, and I intend to stand by her, no matter how many fights she gets herself in. BTW, IT WAS A JOKE. Apparently, you couldn't recognize one when it's dancing naked in front of you flailing Dobby's tea cozy! (another joke) And yes, I am mature. I realised before you that we are arguing over a STORY.

The blood in your veins an a few similar strands of hair dont make you a part of this. BTW i knew that. So was the first line in my post. Nobody's laughing though. Aint that sad oh and BTW, if you havent noticed, humor,sarcasm and all that crap is harder to spot in text-form. Unless you'd use a gazillion smileys or something. Also,i never asked you if youre mature or not. Now stop picking a fight,sheesh if you want to show-off your intellect while raping a dead horse,be my guest, but please do it somewhere else.

no need to get messy. I think both of us should just drop it. Also, I think that you should watch the language. If I was like nine, I'd be petrified. Like I said, we are talking about a story. Do we really need to be savages?

Oh! A no show comment... As Yellow said before; "Real mature." Please Yellow. Comment on my story or leave. This is not a trial in court.

Oy! You'll have to pardon me for butting into this, but I'll only post this, and then I'll leave. I'm a bit tited of seeing a fight going on in the writing forums, so. Thalia, if you didn't want criticism, you should have posted so. This whole mess could have been avioded simply by typing that. But--this is my opinion, and you are entitled to yours--I do agree that chapters should be fleshed out a bit more. They help paint out the picture more, and describe the characters. It's your choice if you want to keep them short. I suggest that you, however, try to be a little bit more thick-skinned. There are always going to be people who oppose to your work and such. If you get upset over every little comment, you'll never be able to grow as a writer (I must point out that I've learned thsi the hard way). So, try to be tough, and jsut carry on with your story if you wish to continue it. Just ignore the negative comments unless they give constructive criticism, which some of these have. Well, that is my two cent's worth. .-. Hmph. *poofs* ;o
