| Very nice! It's always fun for me to see Cyn's name in someone else's story. It's like having a cameo, only with little to no effort on my part.  | |

Cyn, thanks so much. /humbled This story is actually the first time I've written in first person. I absolutely loved doing it and I think it will be my voice from now on.  On another note, this story has not had 70+ actual reads. I kept finding little edits and for every one, it logged a page view. >.> | |

| There's definitely benefits to writing in first person, especially when it comes to writing a narrative that follows one protagonist instead of several. The YA series I'm currently working on started off as a first person narrative, but there were so many other characters fighting for "screen time" that I'm switching to third person so I can follow different parts of the story with different characters. Also, you totally could have played it off as your story being so popular, but you had to go and be honest about it.  | |

| Real comments, since I have -some- time today! I love the visions. It's a twist I don't see many writers employ in WoW stories, or if they do they make it some kind of 'HAI I R SOOPERNATZURAL CREETUR LOLOLOL' scenarios. I'm a fan of ordinary folks sometimes having extradordinary abilities that -aren't- overpowered, and -don't- have explanations for why those abilities exist. A bit of mystery in stories is exactly what I love to see, 'cus they hook in imaginative readers. I also like the crush on Cynlan.  Good grief, man, you leave a trail of stricken females in your wake! That makes 2 PCs that I know of now that pine for you in silence  Most of all, I love the writing style. You've got a good eye for detail, and I love your character's views of the world. MOAR PLZ!! | |
