    Oh, it was a woman? I'm sorry! Secretaries here are either gender really, I meant no harm!

    Ah, was it a girl? I'm sorry >.<

    That's probably why I made the mistake then if it's German! Foreign names are usually harder to differentiate of whether its a female or male.

    Thank you for the comment on Rock 'N' Roll Dreams, and the image for the story is for the last part of story when Oceana is talking to Denver. That's where it comes in. The names that I'm using are just something that I liked that was different. I didn't want to go with names that you hear everywhere.

    Thank you, but as of now I highly doubt I'm going to have chapter titles unless an actual editor finds them beneficial. They really aren't important to me, I could care less about the chapter titles in any story; as long as the story itself is good whether or not any author's stories have chapter names doesn't matter to me. Some of the greatest--and longest-- books in history don't have chapter titles. They really are just a person's preference and I have no desire or need to put them in my story. But thank you for talking to me about it though. I appreciate your view. I'm just more concerned with the second draft of my story and the changes I need to make to it. You're very very nice. So thank you for talking to me. :)

    Reguardless thanks for your input. Chapter titles are generally the least of my worries, that's why I wondered why it even mattered. They seem petty to me in comparison to the content of the story itself. I already have a hard enough time coming up with story titles so I see no point in fiddling around to come up with the perfect name for each segment of a story. It just feels like a waste of valuable time I could be spending working on the actual story. I can see how the actual story title is important, but chapter titles just seem trivial to me as I lose my spot even when they're named. It's just my personal opinion and preference.

    I just put it in the comment swap because I like the way comment swap gives you a random story to read. See I guess I think the moving picture gives more. It's really just a matter of opinion. Well in my author's note it says that I'm not sure if I want to turn it into a story, which means you can assume it's complete. It's alright and thanks for the comment again.

    I didn't quite understand what you meant in the last paragraph or so of your review, by the stone monument? Um, there wasn't a stone monument by the casket, just a picture.

    Also, I really find chapter titles a nice bonus, but not nessicarily required. If you're someone like Ray Bradbury with The Martian Chronicles and each chapter focuses on a different set of people I.could see the need. But most actual novels just have chapter numbers, not nessicarily titles and descriptions so for that story I opted out of those. American Gods and Something Wicked This Way Comes are just two off the top of my head that don't have chapter titles. Forgive me, i know you may like them but its not something that fit in with the style of my story and I found them truly useless in my case.

    I'm sorry I couldn't follow your comment very well...but thanks for it. If you're gonna say I need comments, please spell writer correct. Also the picture really doesn't matter that much because you can scroll down slightly and you don't even see it. It was just a one-shot by the way. Thanks again for the comment though.

    I hope to see your improvement! I can't wait for your next chapter because I can already tell a lot of time and effort will be placed into it!

    Thank you for not taking offense to it, I really didn't intend it that way. I honestly prefer long chapters with a relatively large amount of detail, but not to the point where there is too much detail. I just like the basics explained, so what your characters look like and a hint of their personality and what their surroundings look like, smell like, feel like, etc. Just give me the basic senses of the surrounding area.
    Also, a bit of your grammar is faulty but nothing big, just a few misplaced commas.

    Thanks for the story comment.:) I would encourage you to read stories from the beginning to get a better understanding of the story and whats happening. Its very difficult to make a constructive comment on something when you have no background information on what's happening in the story.

    Have a lovely day Very Happy

    Thank you so much for the comment!

    As for the rating, the language is in later chapters. Actually, most of the reasons why it is rated R is in the later chapters. The beginning is rather innocent.

    Everything that has happened in the story is completely and (fairly) thoroughly explained by the end of the entire story; promise!

    That's a pretty name. I just read stories. I love reading as much as I love writing. It is interesting to see what people can come up with.

    Hey, I'm graceful for the comment, but there's no need to ostracise my opinion. I took your advice into account and reviewed my story, making some changes that you suggested...

    Thank you for the comment n 'volcano erupted' is supposed to an analogy. They are meant to just enjoy the quietness between each other before all their problems came down on them all at once. Overall, it is not appropriate to use so many commas as they sometimes slow the pace of the story. Thank you for all the advice n I hope you enjoy the story. Smile
