"Jumping off a cliff would be a start" so sounds like something I would say. Haha, and what a sour mouth...just like me. Awesomeness P.I.C (Partner In Crime...I'm so creative huh? Haha). I love the start so far. Would love more detail, but you've learned about me that I'm such a detail freak. SO just ignore me. I'm lovin' this so far. How could I not right? You totally rock my world! Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see more! [Ashley]

Author's Response: LMAO! P.I.C. Loves it! :O) I\'m glad you\'re liking this so far. I\'ll be writing more tonight!

Well damn, I would totally pay to have dinner with Brian. And pasta? The way to my heart! Haha. I can only imagine where this is leading to. Then again, maybe I am just psychic. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see more of this of course. [Ashley] (Your PIC)

Dude, this had me laughin' the entire way, but I'm totally shocked that Kevin was the first one to lose a life. AJ & Nick's bickering was perfect and I enjoyed your descriptiveness PR. This is definitely a unique idea and I can only imagine how it is going to turn out. Keep up the great work and update soon! [Ashley]

Author's Response: Haha, thanks Ash!! I'm really glad you like this!! And I wanted to follow Kelly, could you tell?! :P I can't say this enough, but I LOVE when people write Nick and AJ and go on to describe their bickering ways, their trouble making ways, the relationship they possess. *sighs* I love me some Nizzle & Jizzle! Lol. But thanks again for the review hun!! And know that I'll be patiently waiting for a ITNC update!! =]

A very dramatic way to start this off. Surprised to see a new one from you, considering you still haven't finished NSB! *pouts* Good start though. I love the dramatics you have used and the emotions and fears you incorporated mirrored that perfectly for a girl of such a young age going through something as what Jadyn is going through. Hope to see an update soon and *poke* an update of NSB! *hint hint* LoL. Keep up the great work! [Ashley]

Author's Response: Yay...Ashie found my new story! haha. NSB is on a hiatus until I work thru my slump wiith it. Im glad you are liking this one though. Lots more to come!!! Thanks a bunch!

Author's Response: It is her story & I Beta for her. With her permission I posted it on my page. She wanted to post it on her account as well. We are currently writing a story together & we will each post it. I didn't think that there was anything wrong with that.

Ok, I'm having a hard time deciding where I really want to begin. I'm going to give you some very constructive criticism that I hope you don't take offense to. Rather I hope you take as a tool to help you improve your writing.

First, I'm going to be completely honest and tell you it's highly doubtful that anybody would give this story a chance because of it's appearance alone. It's highly confusing and very hard to follow when everything, including each individual's dialogue, is meshed into one big paragraph. That right there is one of the big cardinal sins of writing and a major turnoff for any prospective readers.  Break it into seperate paragraphs. Don't clump each character's dialogue together into one paragraph. That alone can cause a reader's head to spin.

Next, story development. Honestly, and this is only my opinion so please don't take any offense because this is not a flame in any shape or form, but I did not see an ounce of development throughout the story. Before you jump right into writing after you get an idea, take a moment and develop it, even if only in your head. Answer the questions of What? Where? Why? When? How? etc etc etc. Give your story a back bone because a story cannot live on jumbled writing and miscellaneous dialogue alone. Also, give us some details. Paint a picture with your words so we, as the readers, can actually picture ourselves right there witnessing it as the story takes place. Aquaint us with the characters through your writing. Who are they? Why are they that way? What makes them who they are? Their likes? Their dislikes? Their quirks? etc etc etc. Anything that lets us know a little something about them. That right there gives a story more back bone. Details are very important when writing a story. Describe locations and surroundings. Describe a particular character's emotions. If it's important to the story line, describe what they ate for breakfast. You need to plan the important points of the story and build your details off of that. Does that make sense?

Also, the grammar throughout this piece was very poor. There's a bunch of grammar nazis here at AC, LoL, so don't take offense to that either. Some people have trouble when it comes to grammar mechanics, but you'll never fail at finding people here at AC who are willing to give you pointers on ways to improve. Plus, you can also google it and you'll be sure to find grammar tutorial sites that can help.

Another thing as a little advice. I would work on the maturity of the tone of your narrating character. There is absolutely nothing wrong with writing in the first person point of view. Some amazing stories are written in 1st POV. However, there was a certain level of immaturity that I couldn't get past in the narrating character's tone and it was very bothersome and distracting.

Last, I want to bring up my biggest problem with this story and that would be the story line. It was highly unbelievable and unrealistic. Creative/unrealistic story lines are ok to a point, but there's gotta be enough realism in it and I just didn't get that feeling while struggling to read this. If your story line has bits and pieces that may be somewhat unrealistic, then combat that with the realistic strong points and it should all mesh together in the end. I hope that made sense.

Really, I'm not trying to flame you, but I do believe every author deserves constructive criticism and that's what I am trying to give. Again, like I said, please do not take offense to anything I have said in this review. I am only trying to help. If you have time, take a moment and head over to the forum. You can access it through the main page of the AC site. There's plently of people there (AC authors and readers) who can give you good advice and pointers on how to improve your writing.

LMAO, Shaniqua...I now realize why you were asking me all those questions about whether or not I could picture Nick hosting a show like Jerry Springer did. I had my suspicions that you were writing a related fic, but I wouldn't have guessed Ashie would be in on it. How awesome is that!? I totally digged the organized chaos backstage before the show started. I could picture that happening. Update soon. I think I may enjoy this! [Ashley]

Author's Response: YAY! I am so glad you liked it, so far. This was, indeed, the reason I was askin you those questions. Yes, Ahsley is in on it...very much so...we are both super excited, too! Thanks for the review, we'll update soon! -Kris

OMG...I thought I knew what I was going to say...now I'm just...geez, SPEECHLESS. The episode was totally over the top, but the Kevin thing was completely what got me. I loved it. Wasn't expecting something like. But it was totally creative. Good work on this and I can't wait for an update! [Ashley]

Author's Response: HAHA...I like it when I can render people speechless! I'm glad you liked it so much...hopefully it will continue to be a highly entertaining story! Thanks for reading, I know you couldn't picture Nick like this at the start, lol. Ashley (the other one) and I will be trying to have another chapter up soon! Luv ya!! -Kris

Well, holy shit damn! Loved it! Makes me want to use a ouija board even more now. Although I'm more adventurous (or maybe you could call it stupidity) because I've been wanting to find one and take it into the cemetary to use it. That's just me though. I suppose I'm not too bright sometimes. LoL. Good job on this! Makes me want to write a second challenge response, cemetary style. LoL [Ashley]

Author's Response: lol....while doing a lil research, they said to NEVER go into a cemetary. Although it would make it more...scary-fun. hehe. Thanks so much though *huggies* I'm glad I did alright on this one. :) You da best! *squishies*

Ok, so Kristal was completely 100% right. Jack is one sick son of a bitch, but I LIKE IT. That feels so wrong to say that, but damn. And I have to admit that you had me laughing when his little soldier failed him during the act, but I can't say I blame him with all the thoughts going through his mind about his next assignment. You have a very twisted sense of imagination Erika. Again, I LIKE IT. LMAO. You're doing great with this so far. Keep up the good work. You've got me hooked. [Ashley]



Author's Response: LMAO!! he sure is, but something about him just makes you melt. Thank you Ashley I do hope your hooked and you continue to read about poor Jack and his mixed emotions. Thank you Ashley!
