Re: Ending a sentence with a preposition.
It is das Buch (nominative and accusative neuter); der Buch would be a nominative masculine; den Buch would be accusative masculine; the distinction between those two is not one of gender but of case. And Buch is a noun, so it is capitalized.

I must be a boring loser because I feel compelled to post on this thread. ;)
The final question on grammar and punctuation should be whether or not someone can read your sentences and understand what you meant on the first pass. Everything else is style.

Maybe the camp could make a deal with him.
Maybe the camp could "cut" him a deal! ;)
Great story, Josh. I don't know how I missed your work. I just stumbled upon it a few days ago, and I love it.
I loved the close call that Josh had only to be saved by Tobias. You're doing an incredibly good ...

Great series! You're doing an excellent job with the I-think-I want-to-do-this-but-now-that-it's-actually-happening-I'm-not-so-sure angle.

Re: Simon Returns: Simon and his Consience Under the Earth
More importantly, in one part of the story readers may find echoes of Coyan Hyde's excellent "Five Boys". I hope he doesn't object. But after all he borrowed my "Neutersol" for his own story!

Thanks for everyone's encouraging comments.
Concerning Kangan's question, I don't understand what you're looking for.
My favorite part of "Simon Tells It Like It Was" (by C. van D.) was that Simon came so close to doing "the thing that ...

Simon Stories by C van D
The "Simon" stories by C van D are awesome! I particularly love the phrases "I've had my balls pricked" and "The thing that starts a baby." I love the idea of a young boy losing his testicles just before he has the opportunity to have sex with a girl.
