Yes, I sometimes have great trouble editing my own stories because I think as writers we grow to attached to them and don't see the faults. Or something...
Yes, the second version is much improved. Well done! Glad I could be of help!

okay, ready to correct s'more of my poor english? i'm surprised it hasn't scared any of ya'll off yet.




Kaylin woke to the sound of (colorful, beautiful, etc… I don’t know.) birds happily dancing in the trees outsider her window. The sweet scent of honey cakes, and the strong aroma of vilin had pulled Kaylin out of her dark sleep.

Kaylin found Jerith, Isilan’s father, clearing the cluttered dinning hall, and placing elegant silver, yellow, and green candles on the table.

Isilan was preparing the honey cakes, and brought the first batch to the table, an left the room. When he returned he had three pewter glasses, and a vase of vilin. Then he placed the glasses on the table, and filled them.

Kaylin watched amazed at the movement of Jerith and Isilan; they were swift and fluid. Suddenly Isilan stopped when he saw Kaylin and Jerith just barely missed knocking him over. She waved from him to continue, and not notice her, but from then on his movements were rough, and uncoordinated; as a jagged rock breaks the silence of a peaceful lake.

Despite Isilan’s clumsiness, the table was set, and Jerith beckoned for Kaylin to sit.

OooooOOOOo... another twist... ^_^ Great writing! Keep it up! Oh, and just before W4J can do it, I though I might give editing a small portion a try. ^_^

Isilan was preparing the honey cakes. He soon finished and brought the first batch to the table before leaving the room.

Isilan stopped abruptly when he saw Kaylin; Jerith barely missed knocking him over.

More excellent writing, Lost. Bien fait! -(Well done, in French)

Hey Photosoph, you'll put me out of a job! And I need that money to help feed my wife and five children, my three dogs, four birds, two goannas and giant moa! (j/k) Wait a moment! I don't even get paid for doing this! I demand money, Lost! $50 an hour should do it. Otherwise I'm not doing anymore!

o_O There are five children in my family... we have three cats, one dog, thirty odd sheep, but no giant moa. -_-" Sadness. Although I am keeping a white cabbage-butterfly to study for a while. ...But my oldest sis is 30-something, my oldest bro near but over 25, and my 2nd oldest bro is 23 or something -so they're all out of the house; but with my youngest older bro being 18 and CA and I 17, my parents need the money! I will offer competitive rates, Lost!
(Wait a minute.... FREE?!?! How am I supposed to compete with [/b]that?![/b])
What do you think about paying me.... NZD -1.00 an hour? It woudln't come up to much in American dollars... but while Warrior has experience, I have desperation! (And did I mention competitive rates?) ^_^

well, i've got a mom, dad, brother, three 1/2 cats. my grandparents (dad's parents) live next door, and my uncle (dad's brother), aunt, and cousin live two houses down from my grandparents. the house between my uncle and my grandparents is being rented by some friends from church. my grandparents own all the houses from my house to my uncle's house (4 houses). all of our backyards are connected; there is no fence. my grandparents have a pond in the backyard with a bunch of fish; if ya wanna count them as pets or food for the opossums, i don't know; that's your choice. i could go on with my neighborhood, but i expect ya'll are getting bored by now...

Your kind of lucky in that respect because my closest grandparents live 3 hours away and my other pair live 8 hours away. We visit them twice a year. But Australia is a pretty big country so I guess that can be taken into account.

Opossums?

Those are like a fake version of the possum. Very common and are often considered vermin.

yup. they are vermin, especially when they hunt the fish in the pond, get in fights with our cats, and get in fights with the raccoons. sometimes they'll get stuck in a trashcan, and its funny watching them try to get out; it doesn't work! ^_^ i'm so evil. *malicious laughter, and the whole thunder/ music affect*

There was this one time there was this possum on my back fence, and it was just sitting there. So My mom, sister*when she was still here* brother and i were all watching it. So my mom wanted it off the fence so she took our broom and tried to knock it off gently and it wouldn't go. so finaly my mom jave up and my Bro, Sis and i continued to watch. It finaly walked across the fnece and wanted to jump but was to scaired *YOU WUSY POSSUM! I'VE JUMPED OF ROCKS HIGHER THAN THAT!* And my sister made uo this story "Days of our Possums" Will greg jump? Will he ever see mindy ever again stay tuned!" It was funny, it evenioulsy left.

ANY HOW! Enough with my ramblings, I have an older and younger siddlings, older sis and younger bro. and my pairents. I once had 18 mice at one time......lets just say that didn't have a happy ending.....

Possums kinda freak me out. Those big, staring eyes. @_@ D'oh... I have the feeling I'm gonna lose at snake... ^_^
Yay, snake! The classic game. A note to people: never try to beat a teen with a lot of spare time and a cellphone at this game. I, however, do not have a cellphone with snake. It's a fun game, neh?

no, i'm really gonna hunt ya'll down and give ya your fair share of the profits; not to mention have ya'll in the dedication/ thanx part. i already know where sora lives (at least for the next few years *glares menacingly, and burns hole in her head* i'm still mad). too bad for them idiots on the other site who refuse to help, huh? hehehe... :evil:

there was another opossum in our trashcan the other night, and dad shot it. said it was the worst thing he's ever had to do. *brain hurts* he tries to shoot the alley cat that keeps on getting pregnant, that can be tamed to become a pet; but it "kills" him to shoot a wyld animal. :eyebrow: does that make sense to anyone? it hurts my brain... i don't get it... so anyway, i guess my dad can closely relate to you seeing a possum being killed. :shake:

Poor possums!

Lost, no need to pay us, but it would be great to have the book dedicated to CAA writers, that is your choice though. As for me, I want to get published too. Its going to be dang hard, but with God all things are possible!

Chapter 5: ?

What was going on? Tears sprang to Kaylin’s eyes and her face glistened. Who could she now trust? It seemed like the world was in a conspiracy against her, and all she could do was hold her own, not let them see what she was feeling. Kaylin began to feel awkwardly dizzy, and fumbled for a chair. Jerith guided her to the bench while Isilan cleared a path.

Our signatures are gone because of some computer problems I think it was, at the CAA mothership.. um... server.

Pacing back and forth on the balcony of the flet, Albekcc was tormented of how he would tell Kaylin of Mariee. Draqon came and lay down next to the little brook that babbled nonsense in the garden.

Heh, I love slug mode W4J. So slooooooooowwwww... don't ask me to do it fast tho. ^_^ The snake's tail got pretty long at the end. O_O When CA gets home I'll need to get back to trying to beat her at challenges. ^_^ Man, I wonder if there's a public record to view the scores of people who've challenged each other here? If so, check out mine and CA's. Usually the only time I win is when she screws up or its a really long game and I'm so bored I keep going with it. :grin: But it's all so fun. Sometimes agrivating, but fun. ^_^

oh ya! i'm gonna dedicate it to everyone whose helped me on this (no matter how great or small their part was). in general, i'll say "Thanx to the CAA members" at least something close to that. ^_^


That would be so cool! We don't need money; it's a pleasure to help you with your work. A dedication is more than enough thanks. Maybe if any of us ever post stuff you could help us with it too. :)

*Is relishing the relishness of this relishing leftover bit of relish of Silver Wings* :lol: Sorry, you know me and random sentences. ^_^ Aw... I've enjoyed reading your story, so it's sad to see it coming to a temporary end. But now if you have need of any ideas perhaps we could help you with that too?
As usual I am very happy to have read more of your wonderful story. ^_^

Um... the siggies have been gone for a while. I miss mine! I was even going to put a cat animation I made in it. :lol: Oh well. ...I wonder how long we'll be here at 66.92 etc? Man, I know the number withouth having to look at the top after this time: 66.92.1.159 *checks* Woot! I got it right! But it's nice of the CAA staff to keep it up and running while they work on the server problems. It was server problems, right?

Lost, like I've said before: you may want to check out http://www.christianwriters.com as they are an awesome site and very encouraging. I'm going to get them to help me edit my story when I'm done. The one condition is that you help others out with their works too, but that's fair. Isn't it?

That's it! Photosoph! You are crazy. I'm ringing up ChristChurch Mental Instituation right now and checking you in! (Um... what's their number?)
