Writing a story in a chicken's eyes! UPDATE Pg. 75! - Page 63

However, I'm going to make myself really unpopular by saying this... Do NOT rush to finish a chapter just for other peoples' sake. Write at your own pace. It's DEFINITELY good to have someone there, urging you to continue, but rushing out chapter after chapter with minimal editing isn't helping YOU.

Also, if you like, I would be happy to beta read and/or critique for you. I'm an English major, so I promise I'd be helpful. lol Just an offer, though. Don't feel pressured at all to accept.

I'm terribly sorry about your precious Daisy and Chicklet. I know how hard it is to lose a chicken, especially after fighting so hard to keep them alive. I've lost a couple of my flock to illness, and a few to my terrible sister's terrible dog... If you need to take time away from BYC, by all means, do so. Do what's best for YOU.

You're in school, so your homework and extracurricular activities should come before this story, as much as I know some of your more... adamant followers will disliking me for saying that.

I eagerly await continuation, but I can be patient. I have some stories I've been waiting, literally, years for an update on. Your followers should realized how blessed they are to have received so many updates in such a short amount of time. Writing is art, and you know what they say? You can't rush art.

Happy writing~

X2! right on!

I looked at all the caged animals in the barn...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness, and betrayal. And I was angry."God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly, "I have done something," he replied.  "I created you."

I totally agree with Nitrostreak. Do what ever you need to do for yourself. I adore you story, but your happiness and education should come first. I have been guilty of posting wanting more, but only in fun. I know you are busy at your age.
