... it's kinda confusing but it the past and present fit together seamlessly!!!
ReplyDeleteI read it together then I read the past, then the present!
And how they fit together! O.O IT WAS AMAZING!!!!
I'm not kidding although it was slightly confusing a first it was SOOO well put together!!!!
Thanks Mistical! I actually started with two seperate stories, one past, one present, but then I looked at them and I was like 'Hey, these are really similar...'
ReplyDeleteThanks for the input. Do you have any suggestions for how to make it less confusing? Any advice on that is appreciated, from whoever is willing to contribute it.
Thanks again,
