  1. This is a really touching story. I wish I had a twin brother. I mean, I have an older brother, but our age difference makes our relationship ... different. If I had a twin brother, I'd have a best friend for life. That'd be sweet.
  2. Chapter 9 – The Main Course Begins Monday, the Hill household, 16:32 Michael and I hadn’t talked to each other much at school, but then again, neither were the other students and teachers. Emma’s loss had been so sudden, it pretty much stopped all of us in our tracks. The teachers had given us free periods pretty much for the whole day, which should have been a reason for celebration, but even then, many of us spent the school day with whispered conversations. I decided to spend some ti
  3. Chapter 8 - Requiem is up now. Please have a read.
  4. Okay, so chapter 8 is still in moderation and chapter 9 should be ready pretty soon. I just discovered a major plot hole in chapter 10, so I had to rewrite whole chunks of it, as well as some of chapters 11 and 12. But since I'm on my holidays now, I've got extra time. Also, I'm thinking of starting a graphic novella of Dim Sum Mysteries. I might get started on it once Dim Sum Mysteries gets its 12th chapter on GA. Should be fun.
  5. Chapter 8 – Requiem Friday, Mac Worthington High School, 16:28 My voice came out in a strangled cry. “N-no! You’re lying!” “Fuck you!” Artie said, turning on me with an accusing look on his face. “I wouldn’t be lying about this!” Suddenly I felt like I wanted to fall over, crack my head on the concrete and die too. This wasn’t possible. Had I been too late? I should have stayed at school! I broke into a cold sweat and my eyes welled up with tears. In the corner of my eye, I saw Ar
  6. Every writer should have their own personal flair. I guess you shouldn't be so worried about having a common factor amongst all your works unless it's getting to the point where the story becomes predictable for those who have already read much of your work.
  7. Thank you! Chapter 7 - Heads Up is up now. I hope you guys enjoy.
  8. Chapter 7 – Heads Up Saturday, the Hill household, 06:49 I woke up suddenly in the morning – I don’t even know why – but I realized that Michael was not in bed anymore. Groggily blinking out the drowsiness out of my eyes, I wondered why he was up so early. And I needed to pee real badly. On my way to the bathroom, I heard the tell-tale sounds of faint splashes coming from outside the house. He must be swimming, I should have known. After I relieved myself and washed my face I made my wa
  9. Definitely! I'd probably finish this story during the holidays, so you guys can read the whole thing during the holidays too.
  10. I just finished my exams. Sorry for the long wait. I'm going to be putting up chapter 7 and 8 soon, so hold on a little longer! Should be up either later today or tomorrow.
  11. Well, I said that I dislike those people who just "pass by", read, then actually drop a review and then never come back. I know I can't force people to do what I want them to do, but I just thought it'd be nice for them to take the time to read the work again. Then again, it's really just a personal thing for me. I'm actually not too bothered by it, truthfully; again, I just thought it'd be nice for them to come back and read again.
  12. Was this an experiment of some sorts? I think it's a pretty cool experiment though, to gauge people's reactions this way. Oh, just watched it again. Yeah, they were all actors and actresses.
  13. Why don't you like the Michael character? Oh, I'm not offended or anything, I'm just a little bit curious. Thanks for the review, though.
  14. Looks like Chapter 6 is up.
  15. If there are major issues with any of my stories, I'll gladly accept a mild degree of constructive criticism. However, I simply cannot accept the words of those who say "I think the story wasn't that good because I didn't like it" or something to that effect. Criticism should be as objective as possible and a story isn't bad just because you didn't like the topic/theme/characters/etc. I also dislike people who drop in to read a story of mine, or a chapter, leave some criticism or suggestions, and don't ever come back and read my stuff again. I mean, they don't even read it again to see how much I've improved or worsened. Of course, this doesn't apply to people who say a simple 'good job'.

    I think season 2 lacked the drama and the ridiculous plot twists in the plot in season 1. Or, maybe it just seemed that season 1 was fresh and new, that's why it was so good. But, overall, season 2 was okay to watch. I liked all of Charice's (Sunshine Corazon) performances.
  17. I agree with jian_sierrra! I have the beginning and end of the story, and then the main turning points in the story, and then just write everything else. Small encounters with other characters, dialog and descriptions, even characters, just pop up by themselves as I write. It's fun that way! It really helps you to tap into your other forms of creativity.
  18. I think it'll be different for everyone, but a kiss on the first date should be all right. Just go with the flow, I guess. But then again, I don't have much experience in dating.
  19. Chapter 6 – Ready or Not Tuesday, the Liu household, 18:01 Michael and I pretty much ripped each our selves away from each other in one rapid motion. I scrambled up, my heart beating fast for entirely different reasons, panicking. Anna was at the doorway, looking uncomfortable, like she wasn’t sure if she was interrupting something. Well, she was, actually. “Were you two … kissing?” Anna asked slowly, her eyes wide open in shock. “This isn’t what it looks like,” I began, sounding pat
  20. Thank you for the review. This is the first place I've posted this story on and I'll keep doing so until it's done. It's good to know some people are reading it at all. I'll just be patient ... maybe it'll only be a matter of time.
  21. So sorry for the lack of updates. I had exams all week so progress has been real slow. Anyway, I'm almost done with the next chapter, so stay tuned.
  22. Just dropping by to greet all the new members. So ... hi there! I'm pretty new here myself, by the way.
  23. Wow, that's very sad. Hope he gets well real quick. I'll pray for him!
  24. I was about to announce that the new chapters are up, but you beat me to it. Well, chapters 4 and 5 are up.
