Seriously though, it’s a great story. I’m in a literature class right now and your story is easily better and certainly more entertaining than any of the short stories we’ve read recently.

I’ll be honest and say that when I followed the link I was not incredibly thrilled about reading your long story, but figured I’d be a nice guy and read it anyway. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it kept my attention. I was never left feeling like I needed to stop and do something else and I even completely ignored some of the things my roommate was telling me while I was reading it. That’s something I cannot say about the stories written by these “famous” authors published in textbooks. I almost never sit through the entire story without stopping to do something else. Sometimes I’ll even completely skip a page or two. And when I’m done I rarely feel my time was well-spent.

You’re a very good writer. I’d love to see more. Please keep me updated on Spawn and anything else you decide to write. Reading this has reminded me that you had a novel you were working on last year. What ever happened to that?

Great story. :)
