About Myself:

Just another average american doing the best that i can.

I plan on posting more short stories in the future, but for now I’m working on some stories for various contests, and beginning another full length paranormal romance manuscript (novel) for publication.

Please note: Im not a poetry reader, so i avoid the unknowing.

Also, I’m not a big fan of reading chapter stories, or continuations.
If I don’t read your particular story because it falls in one of the two categories, it’s simply because my attention span will not permit it on the internet.

I try to leave as many comments as i can, good or bad. please keep in mind that they are only my reflections of my interpretations.

Thank You

Have a good day

D.A. Ross

Ty for the comment
Thank's Pilgrim,
That is why it did not make it into the finished manuscript.

I simply wanted to share a positive outlook on a negative situation.

Needs work
You have some grammar issues to contend to.

???

"But the here pedestrians."- Word order?

"Kept moving they way New Yorkers" - Should be the, right!

A lot of missing comma's

"I was able to get closer look." - missing a

It seems like you may have hurried with your writing or not proof read it checking for errors.

The story was interesting though, slow at first but it picked up at the end. Would have liked to read closure on the monster though.

Just an observation.

play it again sam
Ok, not to be rude but where is the story here?

This is still storiesville right, or has the new changes also changed the meaning of a story?

I need to email administration and inform them they need a category for “characters thrown together at random without paragraphs."

No offense intended, just a pet peeve.

Paragraph's please
Difficult to read in its current format.

Could be a lot better if you work on the grammar issues.

Keep reading published authors and they will rub off on you.

Psycho therapy
A good read.

A chaotic vision of a psychopathic mind.

Or, maybe I’m wrong.

PS (PSS) UK	Created On: 06/17/2008 02:22:36 Hi D.A! Funny enough, I actually tried to minimise the incoherent aspects of dreaming for this, but still wanted to leave a lot for the reader to decide themselves. I wrote it with the idea in mind that most of the time in dream situations, there is no real 'story' - in nightmares, it's mainly just the horror, and inability or (in this case ability) to overcome it. I just posted a reply to another comment there, and explains a bit about the ideas behind the story. Have a wee read! - "The piece starts with the main character suffering 'central sleep apnea', then the main body of the story is the horrific middle of the night experiences which are very real to the sufferer. The story is based on nightmares that I've had, and also what other people have reported - people have claimed that they have been visited/abducted/experimented on by other worldly beings- e.g. grey and blue aliens - but it can all be attributed to a sleeping disorder called 'sleep paralysis' . For the main part of story when it's dark, the protagonist is controlled by the paralysis, but then in the end in the daylight, he controls it and experiences what some would report as an 'out of body experience' or 'astral projection', though I believe when this happens that it is simply no more than 'lucid dreaming'." Thanks again! PS.
