"Dialogue has a purpose. It pushes the story forward. It keeps the reader tuned in to the story, and makes a person feel at the heart of the action. Therefore, don’t describe distant events second hand. Put the reader in the middle of your story’s action and your dialogue will sing naturally. Keep your talk efficient and forceful. And always make certain the reader knows who is speaking."
I guess what he means is using as many dialogues as possible? Will do. But sometimes I still will narrate.
Posting the story here is very inconvenient. I constantly change a lot. Also, the format in the word processor is different from this blog's. So, I've posted the story here:

And this blog will be just a place for my thoughts.
BTW, I've changed the beginning, adding some elaboration about the characters. I feel good about it.
72 more days to go.
(Damn, the daylight saving time is here.)
