You are seriously talented! I still can't believe you came up with the idea for this story on a whim. Thank goodness for boredom!
I don't really think I'd be a lot of assistance to you, but I'll PM you sometime this week with an idea of where I thought you were going with the story, and maybe that will get you out of your rut. :D

We are patient folk, so don't stress about your updates. :-) Good luck on your exams!
As always, brilliant chapter!

My heart was pounding there at the end! I actually felt my skin growing warmer with fear for poor Wes. Oh. My. Goodness!
One of my favorite lines from this chapter: "...crystals that dotted the dark blanket of night..." Beautiful!

I squealed like a giddy little girl when I got your update alert. LOVE your description here! Great introduction to the island. Can't wait to see what else is waiting for Wes.

Very cool chapter! You're an expert at personification. Looking forward to exploring the island!

Ah, Drivers Ed... The class where imaginations often run wild. :-)
This seems like it could really go somewhere. Interested in seeing where you take it. I wouldn't worry too much about chapter length - just end them where it feels appropriate and you'll be fine.
