A Is For Amy
Summary:
*Ignore the short description -- it's not important.*
Jake Benson is the high school quarterback. Amy Shepherd is the girl that lost everything in a car accident two years ago. Her father has brain damage that makes him act like he's two. She's trying - and failing - to balance her schoolwork with taking care of her dad. And, oh yeah, she's just been partnered up with Jake to work on a Senior Year alphabet book, which makes her hate him even more.
How does Jake even stand a chance?

This is truly great. i just finished reading it and i have a few things to commend you on.
first the plot is great, a very strong aspect in your story.
the characters are believable, and i can see why you wanted to write from Jacob's view in opposing to Amy's, or third person.
it's a real-life situation with real-life people, though i still and doubting that Zack would really hit/beat a girl, even if she is "awful."
this is very emotional, and touching, and the writing style is easy, and flowing.
however, i just feel as the last chapter so far, sounds like a conversation a pair of newlyweds or fiance's would have--not high schoolers. i understand you wanted this to be an emotional chapter for them, it just seems a little out there.
or maybe i've just never met any guys that down-to-earth, head over heels in love, or sensitive. So maybe it's just me.
But overall, great book so far, and i'm anxious to see if you post any more chapters!!
p.s. if you could, please check out any of my stories, Among the Stars(romance novel), Away from Tragedy(realistic fiction), and Hands Stained Red(action-adventure). if you can't no problem, but if you can, please rate and comment.
Thanks a ton=]
So I'm totally new to this site and have no idea if I'm allowed to comment on my own work...
But to answer a couple of your questions:
Yes, I'm continuing AIFM. I'm actually in the process of writing another chapter. :)
How far I am is how far I've posted. I usually update immediately after I write the chapter, so what you see is everything I have.
Thank you so much for the comments! I appreciate it a LOT.
