abuseI have to admit that there are a few things that bother me about your story. First of all, I can only second what has been said by others, you really need to be careful with your spelling and punctuation; also, I have noticed quite a few grammatical errors. I think you would be well advised to have a closer look especially at your finite verb forms; they are not always in the right tense and number, making it very difficult for the reader to understand your sentences. Also, your syntax does have some weaknesses; whilst your narrative certainly benefits in liveliness from your approach to bring it as close to the spoken language - even bordering on the vernacular now and then - syntactical errors do have a tendency to creep in; again giving the reader trouble in understanding your meaning.
Also, I think you might want to edit your chapters in terms of the narrative perspective; unfortunately, you have some - I am sure involuntary - shifts from first person to third person, sometimes even within the same paragraph or even sentence.

You surely have managed to create an interesting backstory for William, but I must confess I am a bit concerned at the casual mention of the fact that his sister was raped. You probably did not intend it this way, but it does come over as if William did not care at all about what happened to his sister. Perhaps you intend to address this in a later chapter; but you should make sure to take into account the enormity of such a crime and the immense problems that not only the victim herself, but all her family will face.

I can only suggest to you to get an editor and/or beta reader who will help you with your grammar and can also point out inconsistencies in the plot. You certainly do have potential - the idea to make William an involuntarily aggressive person in his attempts to shield Elizabeth from Wickham was quite interesting, for example - and your setting the story in college, even if not unusual, does indeed work very well, but it is points such as I addressed above that will probably make you lose quite a couple of readers who would otherwise probably be interested in your premise and your writing.

abuseIMHO, I know this is stupid but my cousin thinks college kids don't wear hollister. ;) then again, she's like, the goth girl of the school.

good story. I suggest putting more space between the sentences, making it more paragraphs. :)

abuseHey, great story..but when you write try to space inbetween talking cuz that makes it easier to read.. Also it makes the chapter look longer. xD

Thanks

abuseI liked the fight/rescue idea. It's usually best to give each person's dialogue its own, separate line, however.

Happy writing!
