Overall i liked it, but somtimes it seemed like you were trying to reach a word mininum. Good read though.

It was alright but at the end of the read I'd really felt like you'd just stolen 10 minutes of my day. I dont want sound like ass but thats really what it felt like. At the end it seemed like you got sick of typing and just decided to do a rushed conclusion. So what I'm really tring to say is that the story was alright but the end was dispointing. O and nobody died, always need a little violence to satisfy the masses.

Crack open a coldie.....I have a cold shower before footy matches because it seems to make everything clearer and my mind can focus more on the game.

Nice quick read.

Yes Smeagol, I am an Aussie. I used to live 2 hours north of Melbourne but now I'm in Canberra and it's cold. I'm not watching the game tonight because I have an exam tomorrow. Exams, on a Saturday! Life is cruel.

I don't know when we're getting TF. I'm not going to buy it though, I would only be able to play single player and a couple of LAN games. When one of my friends buys TF I will borrow it from him and play it then.

I go for Essendon and no I haven't jumped on the bandwagon. We're not going well at the moment but we're on the end of a good run. Last 3-4 years have been great. I also like the Saints, they're probably my second side although I hardly follow them.

Oh, btw, I've started my second report. Probably won't get it completed until after my holidays, so there will be a three week wait at least.

I felt it was long enough. What's worse; a story being too short, or a story with "fat" added to it that serves no purpose other than to lengthen it?

And besides, I just read Catcher in the Rye, so I felt like doing a teenager thingie. :-D

Nice story, life sucks.
#28 Octavian82[142840]
roam71-166.student.harvard.edu
Didn't someone else write a teen angst story about six months ago that sounded somewhat similar, only much longer with more references to drugs and sex?

An excellent start, a good narrative arc. Much better prose than average.

However, great stories develop a character, illustrate a change or create/resolve a conflict. Your protagonist was essentially unchanged and your conflict (the internal debate about suicide) was too short and peremptory. I felt we were just starting to get into your character's head and then the psychological conflict was resolved much too quickly.

My two cents

Yes, there was another depressing teenage story about 6 months ago that involved a friend dying and the writer degrading into a gothic.

#35 AbGen[142849]
spider-tj023.proxy.aol.com
I find the Oprah comment very amusing.

And life in itself doesnt suck. People make it suck. It's hard and all, but I wouldn't consider it as being "sucky". Videogames can suck. Videogames like E.T. suck.
#36 GeneralPatton[142852]
cache-da01.proxy.aol.com
Nice story. A good distraction in the wee hours of the morning.
I remember someone posting a thing like this a few months ago. He was some kleptomaniac who did drugs, hated the world, went to therapy, bitched about his life, almost got someone pregnant, made lots of detail about sex that was not needed, and generally made me feel that is was an "I'm an angsty teen, look at how much I messed up my life" kinda thing.
ANYWAY, good story-fanfic thingy. Or as most people who read this site would say...

"OMGZ U ARE A FAGG FOR NO7 SEX0RING HERRZ!!1"
Ya. I'll shut up now.

#40 Redemption6[142873]
HU3.Kiewit.dartmouth.edu
I'd just like to point out that while the original intention of br.com was to have "game" battlereports, one can notice that the site has evolved into something that adapts to all types of stories. Now if you don't like this, you don't have to point out that it's not a br. If the admin believes it isn't, he'll delete it, if he does, then he'll keep it. It's not like you guys are here to decide what stays on this site.

Appreciate that it's not another piece of stupid spam.
#41 .[142874]

is sex allowed as fanfiction (u know, cos of younger readers)?
#42 GeneralPatton[142878]
spider-to011.proxy.aol.com
Personally, I think it depends on the situation. If you're insinuating that something is happening, or will happen, but don't actually go into WHAT, then it's acceptable. If, however you describe every little detail, like that one guy did a few months back, then no.
#43 3-Slam[142880]

From the second I read he was going to send his reply before even reading the original missive, I saw that ironic let-down a mile away. And the conclusion did seem a bit rushed.

Your prose is above-average.
Your humor is above-average. (You provided a general atmosphere of constant humor, instead of a handful of LOL-level jokes inserted into long gaps of monotony.)
Your suspense building needs a little work, as mentioned above.
And your effort is, as always, of heroic proportions.

Sweet. Very good short story, I would have rated it a 9 o rmaybe 8 because i guess it was short, not that that should matter.

Anyways i liek these short stories of yours better than anything else on the site, keep em coming.

Too much angst, not enough bitter irony.

Not bad, though. Vaguely reminiscent of As I Lay Dying.

Wow. Faulkner? I was thinking more J.D. Salinger, but I guess being "vaguely reminiscent" of a cannon writer is an honor.
