well... my brother has two bb guns and a baint ball gun and toy guns... he can't aim for crap but my mum... eep... she can shoot bulls eyes with every kind of gun. My grandpa sent us to this gun convention where we tryed old muskut guns and powder guns, and archery and EVERYTHING... my mum got a bullseye every time... AND it was the first time she had ever used a gun... i think she used to be in the secret survise...


well... she can't do any of that any more... she can't even stand up by her self. Oh god I hope she gets better.

oh thats cool!

ford

OH! I get it! Thats a good idea! I chose Tom because it's the translation of a Japanese name which means "causious one" which he is because bad stuff always hapens to him... his middle name could be Murphy!

oh cool! i like tom now! haha
YA! thats a good idea! or it could be tom merphy... nah
cheers

I like it. What happens next?

I think you should space out the paragraphs a bit, though, because I found it a bit difficult to follow, and it just seemed like a chunk of text. But it's nothing to do with the writing (which was awesome), it's just the presentation.

ya ok... i just copied and pasted the text from my computer... it was orriganly double spaced, but when i posted it it wasn't any more... i'll have to fix that.

I'll give you a summery of what happens next...

Tom Ellis is a very unhappy and unlucky man. He believes that the only way to escape his troubles is to move away from everything. But, when he moves into his new home on Peacock Avenue, expecting peace, quiet, and kindly neighbours who expect the same, he discovers that he’s moved into a place with the two worst next-door neighbours imaginable. Just when he thinks his luck will never improve, a visitor shows up on their remote street, taking the three neighbours on an adventure through the galaxy as they search for an object that holds emence power... but no one knows exactly what it is. Mean while another being is trying to find this myserious item, and encounters another strange person who seems to know too much with out meaning to... You'll have to read the whole thing to understand it all... Perhaps I could e-mail you guys the other chapters... you could be my ginny-pig test readers...

SURE! wow! that sounds really cool!
cheers
ford

YAY!
