abuseYou realy DO know how to write suspense, you know. Have you read Ted Dekker? It's almost like him, but so much better (I'm not a big fan of Ted, myself - I used to be, but his stuff has gotten slacker-ish lately).

abuseHave you done a lot of research on mental diseases to write this story?

abuseA few random thoughts, since I want to review this chapter even though I'm not entirely sure what to say:

I wonder if Devon's a Christian, but I don't think so.
I also wonder why they would suggest that Patrick would help... something tells me I'll find out in later chapters. =)

abuseHey there!

I, as well, apologize for the craziness of my reviews... I know they're way too few and far between. Busy school year. =) Anyway, I also wanted to thank you for you reviews! I've kept them in a folder and I'm going to return to them when I'm actually done writing altogether - during my editing process. =)

Anyway, you've just written too much, I can't keep track of it! But this one captured my interest, even though I know I say that all the time (perhaps it has to do with the author? I don't know, that's just any idea...)

Hm, this sounds a lot to me like spiritual warfare - have you read Frank Peretti's books, This Present Darkness & Piercing the Darkness? Perhaps I've already asked you that; I have no idea. Anyway, spiritual warfare has always been a topic that has scared me, but intrigued me all the same. But I can't help but wonder if Allison simply needs someone to pray over her...

abuseSigh. Like always, you've managed to make me curious. And I'm on to the next chapter...


BUT before I do that, can I ask you how you can possibly write so many different stories at one time? I mean, I'm going to have a hard time keeping up with all this stuff, much less reading what I've missed in the last six months or so.

I know you mentioned college and breaks and such, however - I can never concentrate on more than one or two projects at a time. I lose my mindset for that story because I've been proccupied with another - becuase I never really write anything down or outline.

abuseOhh...so Allision is finally meeting with our residant madman. Creepy.

Nitpicky:
If Devon has the guilt wrung out of her, shouldn't she then be free of guilt?

Doubting the wisdom in a possibly rash decision is not only expected, it sounds a little redundant.

Funny. I never thought about Svahe having a family.

abuseDamn. Quite sadistic and disturbing but that's the way I like it. I'm not religious myself nor do I subscribe to Christianity, but I'm still willing to recognize talent when I see it. A writer and a rock star. ;-)

Thanks for the review, mate.

abuseAnother action-packed chapter, with some surprising revelations.Just one thing- how was Jason's father involved in the Church? He couldn't have been a priest, since he was married...unless I'm missing something? Otherwise, great chapter. I don't know is everyone would appriciate the conversation towards the end- a little preachy, even if it is true. But it does offer insight into the characters' religious beliefs, which might become important later on...hint-hint.

abuseI like this story. It's nice and disturbing, like the eating her intestines part. I like your writing. I think you should try to publish some of your work.

abuse'...and icicle gorging her intestines'. I think you mean 'gouging'- 'gorging' means eating. Unless you mean an icicle is eating her intestines...

abuseThis is a cool story. The story is well paced and I love the suspence. The opening chapter was well written. The whole story seemed poetic with the reputition of the word 'pain'.

abuseOk, before I say this, I want to tell you that I am a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. I am surprised that you would say you are too, yet use "BS" in your stories. It kinda portrays a wrong image of Christians. I don't mean to be a finatic, but there you are. The use of curse words in the story took away my interest to read it. Sorry.
