| Tihs isn't my area of expertise, but please, could you indent. You may not have to, but to some it may make it easier to read. Otherwise good story. Shouldn't charged plasma be slightly locking on to it's target? Is this guy a spartan or a Marine? Otherwise good story. |

Please forgive me Brigade, but I don't really know what indenting is. I looked for its explanation on the Directions For Submitting pages, but couldn't find out. Could you help at all? Oh, and Argave is a SPARTAN
Cheers  |

Oh yeah, and although I know plasma is slightly lock-onable, I don't think it really matters that much in a story.

Instructions for pseudo code such as adding indents can be found here: http://halosn.bungie.org/misc/ffformdirections.html
You don't need to indent, you can add extra line returns between paragraphs like what you did at the beginning of the story.
Just make sure that the story looks good in the preview before submitting the story. When you don't use indent or extra line feeds (double space, etc.) then it makes the story visually harder to read.
Anyway, keep up the writing. |

| THIS SUCKS!!!!! A dumb hurricane is coming to hit florida. I really hate hurricanes. The only thing goood is that if we're lucky we get a day off of school. Oh, and thanks Wado. I didn't know about the double spacing. it's nice to learn something everyday. And if you write a story how Haloy should it be... I have a story thats good but it may not be Haloy enough and I don't know if it could work. So is there any form of help i can get to answering these questions? |

Well take care, hurricanes are nothing to spit at.
You could try asking the Haloy question in the Halo Fan Fiction Source forum http://s94962042.onlinehome.us/~rkz/forums/ |

You do a good job with your action. Getting your character in and out of several life threatening situations can be hard, especially when he is acting alone. It isn't often you see a story that is action all the way through.
I don't indent, I use block paragraphing. After each paragraph I double space, like what Wado told you. Some people don't like it, but it makes it easier on my eyes than just indenting. In the end, choose any paragraphing style that you are comfortable with, just as long as you paragraph.
Good job.
