Do you like this first clip of my novel?
Okay. Please read this before continuing onto the site.
First of all! THIS DOES NOT TAKE PLACE ON EARTH. Last time I checked, small was not six foot two, we did not wear rubber pants and short robes (by the way, for less confusion, they are NOT Harry Potter robes. They are kimono-like robes). The gravity here is 7/10 of our gravity on Earth, they have tails (form follows function – they need it for balancing) they are tall, their skin reacts different to sunlight than ours, they can survive in WAY higher heats (their sun is much closer to their planet, which is called Humorous), and it is like a desert there, landscape-wise.
Oh, yes, and I appreciated constructive criticism. I’m only twelve, and looking for ways to improve!
Also, please don’t look at other things that I have posted. Most of them are unedited and I do not want people I do not know seeing those yet.

Honestly, I’m highly impressed! This is very well written–especially for someone so young! They story looks like it is teeming with creativity and you have a nice eye for details and descriptions. I think what would be a good addition to this initial part of the story would be a little more thorough in the description of this alien race. It’s very good that you don’t give everything physical away in one shot, I like that you have it broken up with a little here and there, but I think you could definitely add more so that the reader can really picture the character doing the things she’s doing clearly.
Very well done! I think it will be great!

Desert Landscaping
$17.98 George Brookbank has distilled nearly twenty years' experience—as an extension agent in urban horticulture with the University of Arizona—into a practical book that tells how to avoid problems with desert landscaping before they occur and how to correct those that do. In the first part, "How to Start and Maintain a Desert Landscape," he provides 28 easy-to-use chapters that address concerns ranging from how to start a wildflower garden to how to cope with Texas root rot. In Part Two, "A Month-By-Month Maintenance Guide," he offers a handy almanac that tells what to do and what to watch out for each month of the year, with cross-references to the chapters in Part One. Homeowners who maintain their own landscape will find in this book ways to make the work more satisfying and productive, while those who hire landscape contractors can make sure the work is done effectively and economically. "You'll find all kinds of books on desert landscape design and materials, irrigation system and design, and landscape installation," says Brookbank. "So far as I know, however, this is the only book that tells you what to do with what you've got and how to keep it growing." CONTENTSPart 1 - How to Start and Maintain a Desert Landscape1.
