I love your story line! I also like the smooth transitions and the way the action never stops, even when it doesn't seem like much is happening. That's skillful.
Because this is so excellent, I would urge you to run it through spell-check and fix the multiple spelling errors. A few would be normal, even expected, but they're in almost every sentence and paragraph, and this is just too good to be a victim of sloppy writing.... Show more

Please proof read your work and take the time to correct your mistakes. Not many stories on this site lately have been anywhere near as wonderful as this, but the flow of the narrative is greatly compromised when so many words are incorrectly spelled - it's like running a silk stocking over sandpaper instead of polished silver.
You're a gifted writer, and I would love to see this properly edited and reposted. Seems to me that with the extra effort, you would have a book people would gladly pay to own. This isn't an easy genre to pull off as well as you do, and your story deserves the "spit and polish" that will take it from rough to finely-cut.
I look forward to seeing this in its final form - awesome writing!
Thankyou so much for your kind words! I don't have spell check and I'm dyslexic which sucks so it means so much to me that you voiced your opinion on my work. So thankyou so much for voicing your opinion!
What kind of system are you using? There are free spell-checking programs you can download. If you like, I'll get the links for you if you have the kind of computer that allows those kinds of downloads.

My brother is dyslexic. When we were growing up, I couldn't understand how he could memorize three chapters of calculus in one night, but couldn't spell "the" correctly. That was before dyslexia was a generally known condition. Of course, he couldn't understand how I could win spelling bees, yet couldn't do simple algebra, lol.
As it turns out, my middle daughter is dyslexic, and has a tendency to confuse entire words as well as misspell things. Once, in a moment of hilarious confusion, she told someone we were talking to that she thought she might be Ethiopian - she meant dyslexic. Try not going hysterical when someone makes a mistake like that! But she's got a good sense of humor, and when I explained her mistake, she laughed so hard she couldn't breathe for several long moments.
Ah, well. You know, some of the world's most famous authors suffered from dyslexia - F. Scott Fitzgerald, Jules Verne, and Agatha Christie to name a few - but it didn't stop them from being awesome. You're in good company! They did have friends and eventually editors, of course, who proof-read their work so the published versions were error-free. If you can't download one of the spell-check programs, have a teacher or good friend read through the story with you and underline the incorrect words, and show you how to fix them. Your story is worth every ounce of effort it may take, so don't get discouraged.
Be well, and keep going! =D
