Ok wow. " Creepy Clolvig " the neighborhoods well, you can probably guess by his name. But he's that old man that lives in the neighborhood and smells funny, he's scary and people avoid him cause he's downright mean. The two brothers, Danny, the younger brother and main character, and his older brother Beau. Anyway, they had picked up glass bottles and turned them in for money. With that money they each bought about 2 handfuls of candy each! They only turned in six bottles! Now a days you pick up a couple of tin cans and get ten cents for each! 60 cents is how what they got! Not nearly enough for handfuls of candy in the 21 century! It's either candy costs alot more now, or glass bottles are alot less expensive then they were 30 years ago! Well the two brothers took the cart they had collected in to a hill. Danny jumped in with the 6 bottles that weren't accepted and tire downhill. He couldn't stop, he just kept going and he made it across the bridge, up the hill, and started heading. Straight for the Colvig house! Then " by some miracle" the cart tipped over and he fell to the ground. His brother ran up and started raving about how Danny was the first person to cross the bridge and go up the hill. Danny not thinking about what he was doing, took a glass bottle and threw it up in the air and when it fell, watched it shatter. A million tiny glass shards catching the light. I can't even begin to imagine just how wonderful that would look, but it must be stunning.

Your inner voices are very clear. The posts are very very long, and that's good! Try to have a number of diffent startigies. You are mostly just summarizing, and erueka. Try more connections, tracking down imp. information.
