Exactly! I like to prove with my stories that it is possible to have a good story without excess descriptions. Thanks!

Can the SM users have a friends list as well as a favorites option so they can save their favorite chapters and contact their favorite users? As well as label their chapters by genre to make chapters of their preference easier to find?

Thanks for reading some of my work and commenting and such. You have a lot of stuff for me to read, but it's going to take a little while to get through it all considering I have a lot of stuff I "have" to write, and stuff I've been coming up with. But I'll get to it. If you like my work, you should check out Empyrean Chapter 1 and tell me if you like it.

On that note, it is also blatantly obvious that specific genres of work get more attention than others. i.e. hard-boiled cops their crossword puzzles or stories about people in the 1950's. These are also the stories that end up selected for the contests. SM should be separated by genre as it is the most important of any story to a reader. No reader will pick up a book to read is it is not the type of story they like, and the surplus of "i.e." readers does not allow for work within other genres to be recognized or reviewed.

There usually isn't any clarification in dreams. Just chaotic like that.

There is only encouragement to complete the contest rather than their own stories.

But then the people whose minds are working imaginatively on creating the sub-chapters to their stories are not rewarded. Everyone's too worried about winning the contests to be courteous enough to read someone's story thats not part of the contest. All of the votes and comments go to those stories, and the votes and comments of those who could care less about the contests (which are very few) go to those who care about their story.

What decides whose stories are picked for the add on chapters in the contests?

Interesting. I added my second chapter to the first, but I like what you did with this one. If you don't mind I'm going to add onto it. It'll be fun changing the direction of my story and seeing where it goes. I gave this a 5.

This has already been thought of, and it's already published. The a lot of what you've stated isn't completely explained within the story only because everything is revealed later in the series. Thanks for the comment. I'll take that into consideration to make the rest of the story after it more believable.
