    Chapter 2

    Carlos Hazday commented on JC Phelps's story chapter in Chapter 2

    I'll echo @Talo Segura's comment in chapter one: your phrasing is at times convoluted and confusing. In a sentence above you wrote 'yet anyhow although' I lost count of how many times I had to read the sentence before I figured out where to put a comma so it would make sense. I like the story but it could use some cleaning. Find yourself a proofreader.

    Carlos Hazday commented on MozLover21's story in Fiction

    Welcome back. Is the story written or are you still working on it? I ask trying to figure out if there'll be further long hiatus between chapters. I already forgot most of the ones already posted and don't want to re-read everything each time you post a new one. I like your story.

    @Slytherin Thanks! Those were the shirts my main character wore, I still have those pics if you want me to share them with you.

    Thank you, all! I hope you realize this doesn't change anything. I'll continue writing feel-good stories, my characters will continue to use cuss words, and social issues will continue to appear in most tales. Titles don't mean much to me; what thrills me is hearing from readers. Your reactions, positive or negative, fuel my desire to improve. @Mann Ramblings To quote our favorite Aussie: 'About time, you wanker!'

    Damn sappy, and damn enjoyable. I'm not a baker but... Nice work, Val.

    Most of my stories are about realistic people; although this one covers an entirely fictitious event, zombies would have been a bit too fantastical. My attempt at fantastical creatures has been limited to the weredolphins of Atlantis Shift. Thank you for reading and commenting. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Off the top of my head, the only story waiting is American Steel. Is that the one? I did feature the main character in a CJ book, although those events took place a bit after the last riding story. It's on my list of WIP, but it may take a while to add new chapters to it.

    I put a lot of thought into song selection. I even have a playlist with all of them I've listened to a few hundred times. Glad it worked.

    Thank you! I feel a heck of a lot better about my writing these days but hope I can continue to improve. I know about the ending. Pretty awesome, right? LOL

    Noted However, more than the 1k word chapters, the issues you raise were a result of limiting the number of chapters. I'm also restricting the chapters in Ranger, but I'm allowing them to be as long as necessary to get the story across.

    LMAO- That would be a trip. I'll use the format again, but I have no idea when. As of right now, Harley's story's only a couple hundred words long. A few ideas jotted down to prevent my bad memory acting up.

    I'm glad so many readers realize win or lose Chipper's career's set to explode. I wish I could go see one of his concerts!

    I haven't looked in a long time, but Mark Arbour's CAP series may beat both CJs. One huge obstasscle to future stories is timing. CJ's story would not have been the same had I set it in a different time period or started it with him being older. Gay marriage and the 2016 presidential election were integral to the character's development. Now I'm stuck writing in the future, and it's a pain. Not only do I have to skip most real life events, but I can't have everyone who's gonna have kids do it when they're as young as CJ. One or two young parents I can get away with, more that that would be unrealistic. As I mentioned before, I do have references to Chipper already outlined, we'll see when those come to light.

    I may have brought a gutter find home once or twice.

    This is the time of year I love living in South Florida, August not so much.

    Get your mind out of the gutter. I had jeans and boots on too. LOL

    @wildone btw, Steve, no hating but right now I'm sitting outside in shorts no shirt, and I already went for a motorcycle ride this morning wearing only a t-shirt.

    I was rooting for the underdogs mostly and I feel bad for Michigan.
  21. Carlos Hazday
    LOL I actually watched a lot of it, and I'll admit I was rooting for Auburn. I also cheered for Michigan, but Ohio State destroyed them.

    Hey, Doc, is the weather complicated by the huge, dark cloud over Tuscaloosa this morning?

    Following the analogy, think of 1k word chapters as portion control. I don't want readers gaining weight.

    I don't understand why people don't like the short chapters...

    Ooops, Aslan called Monday night after the performances were over. The results aren't announced until the next day.
