1341625 Yes, Greer. The amazingness of his writing...well, let's just say that my head would explode if I ever begun to think about how much sense I wasn't making...haha. But yeah, you're welcome, Harrison. Long comments are kinda my forte. Good luck with the book, though. *WHOOT WHOOT* GO HARRISON!

1341625 Hey, hate to be bothering you like this but I wrote a review for chapter two of your story Regenesis but I guess it was too long and didn't save. Heres what I wrote:


Still loving the descriptiveness of this, feels like I'm actually there, only I should only be so lucky. I found the fact that you made this Nick character stutter very intriguing. I know that in a book that I've read, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, this one character stuttered in the presence of a very commanding figure, Nurse Rached. So I'm interested on what Nick's back story is of his his stuttering, if not brought on by mere coincidence. But that Rachel character...I'd start some drama with her if I was part of this story. She's so condescending, especially towards Nick, and that angers me seeing how Nick is probably my favorite character, so far. She needs to learn how to keep her trap shut, that'll get her places. Haha but I'm glad she's a character, now I have someone to hate.(I love to hate people) I hope she makes another apperance. To tell you the truth I don't find myself reading this genre often, but if they were written half as brilliantly as this chapter was things would be different...or maybe it's just that I don't give those kind of books a chance. You've opened up my eyes to a new world, my friend. First thing tomorrrow...or maybe second thing tomorrow(he's very busy), I'm going to Barnes & Nobles and buying a book of this particular genre, watch me. But If I don't find an author under the name "Pierce", then I guess I'm going to have to settle for what they offer. But man, this story had everything; a plot, bullying, a bat attack, wit, a guy, "the"...the whole shabang. I like how you go from one scenerio to another...reminds me of LAW & ORDER. I found that little pudgy boy that was at the hospital with Rachel...um, interesting. He kinda scared me. I thought that he was passive aggressive...so secretive. That bat attack, though, was especially thrilling...Jordan is so lucky...getting mauled by all those bats...it's not fair, I tell ya. That should've been me that laid lifeless in those woods. What was read in Caroline's diary just blew my friggin' mind. What a plot twist. I felt so accomplished when reading this, for some reason. I have no idea where you come up with this stuff, such creativenessisityicious(new word I'm assimilating. It hasn't quite caught on yet but I'm an optimistic person). Like the wireless mouse thing you mentioned close to the end of chapter two. I can totally see that being an invention in 2029. It sure would make things less of an ordeal, that's for such But knowing my luck, I'd most likely trip over a cord even if it is wireless. This chapter was well thought out and put together. I'm very happy with what I read today.

When you look at your writing your gonna see that it says I read chaper three even though I didn't yet. But I'm looking foward to reading it.

1341625 Yeah, I get a kick out of animals that are bigger and stronger than me having their way with me....and that did not come out right. But yeah, I'd like to get assulted by one *fingers crossed* I haven't seen such great writing since...uh...well, I can't remember so it must me a long time since I've seen great writing. Go Harrison *WHOOT WHOOT*

1341625 lol true story, I really would like to get mauled by a grizzly...let's just hope it's written in my book :( Oh, and I read on your profile that you like The Final Fantasy series...just like me :) Anyway, thanks for acknowledge this life time goal of mines, "To get mauled by a bear." Wish me luck. Oh, and by the way, I've read the firts chapter of Regenesis and couldn't be more impressed. You've got some real talent there, Harrison. I'll have to read chapter two tonight, or something. But, I'm really fond of your work, I don't mean to come across as arrogant or anything, but it's flawless.

810759 Dude...your book rocks. Seriously, why aren't you published? I mean, you may be the best writer of all time. There was that one guy, can't remember his name, but he can't hold a candle to you. I don't mean that literally, because you know, how hard is it really to hold a candle next to someone? It doesn't even have to be lit, so they don't even need to know that it's there. You could even put it in a bag, hold it next to them and they would never see it. So yea, he literally could hold a candle to you.

Anyway, what was I saying?

T-Bone

Aw, hope you feel better.
What are you sick with? I'm sick like all the time.

I love web design.
I'm currently doing it using Dreamweaver, since we're beginners. But next year I'm signing up for advanced, and we're going to be using HTMl the entire time, and fireworks for images and whatnot.
