Just a note: It should be "Spider Webs".... no apostrophe needed in this case.

And what's with this new reviewing system? Did GA revamp the website yet again?

Oh, Brother. I just read chapter 15, and I never read uncompleted stories. Dunno how the hell I erred here.

Look, I think this is the place to stop this story, actually. And I say that out of love. I've only been on GA for eight months, but I can tell you with certainty, this is the best story I have read here.

It truly is a great tale. Heartwarming. Heartbreaking. Loving. Protecting. Resisting. Fighting. Surviving. Growing. Wanting. Needing. Loving. Loving. Missing. Seflessness.

OK, so there is a tad of the saccharine mixed in there. But it is only a tad, and every story needs a bit of that. So saccharine is a pejorative term for something that needs to be there.

However, you are in danger of falling into tired tropes with the will and the truck. I really wish you would stop here and allow this story the everlasting beauty it already has. Don't tarnish it by overpolishing it. It is perfect as it is.

Please please please leave it alone now. It's beautiful and perfect and excellent and finished.

I would argue against Dannsar's pleas to stop the story where it is now. At least one more chapter tying up some loose ends. I have enough faith in you and your editors to avoid too many tropes. I understand how busy you are with school (I'm hoping that we get an update this winter break in between semesters) but know that whatever you choose your readers will support you. If you do end Spider Webs I hope you decide to write another story.

I've been here since February of '16, and this is one of the first stories I read here on GA. I'd love to see more from you.
