The TARDIS with David Tennant
So, I have two questions:

1) Any suggestions for improving the characters in part 1?
2) Any idea when you might read more?

1. Basically my suggestions about emotional depth and showing will help that a lot.

2. It would be today but I can't find the driver to install it on my laptop so I can download your doc. I'm going to try one more time. If it doesn't work...it won't be until Friday. At the absolute earliest.

Ally, he was sent from Heaven to live on Earth as an Angel when he was a baby, but something happened so Heaven rescinded his spot in Heaven and now he's a Fallen Angel. It was just something that came to mind and I couldn't sleep until I'd written it.

oh ok. that clears it up.

I get those too... a bubbling idea that wont leave you alone. I've learned to beat mine into a pulp so they stop bugging me. Although every single morning as i drive to work and when i drive home i let my mind wander through all the ideas.

Currently the big obessesion of mine are my last two books in the series, they are a long way off from being written for 4 books stand inbetween them, but the ideas are going crazy in my head!

Ally, do you think I should delete Isabella's pov when she goes to the cabin? I'm not sure what to do...

Personally i would say you might want to get rid of her voice completely in the book, unless your going to add a lot more of her. Say at least 7-10 pov's

Ahh this sucks. I want to go out, but I have no money. But staying at home all day, as usual, makes me feel lazy. grr

Thanks! I don't know how many more words it'll take to finish the story, but I'm guessing somewhere around 20,000. This is going to be a longggggggg month :p
