Eh, you can if you want to but I wouldn't worry about it too much. You're writing has a pretty good flow to it that I probably wouldn't have noticed those paragraphs if you hadn't pointed them out.

I like that this story is about the same events told from a different characters viewpoint...are you planning on doing more of these for the kids in the crowd?

I assume since this one ends before the lurker reveals himself and all the kids run out that its not done yet...if it is, I don't think what you have here is complete/scary enough to stand on its own although it's certainly a good start.

In answer to your question you posted on the forum thread, of course Writer's Workshop is totally voluntary. I have five stories and only bothered to post the first two to the workshop, mostly because I was new to the wiki. If you have a halfway decent plot and a basic command of the English language (from what I've read of yours you definitely qualify) you can pretty much post away with abandon.

That being said, you can usually get a bit more feedback on the workshop here since there are far fewer threads than there are stories on the main site. Additionally, I'm not sure how everyone else is, but I am usually far more lenient and constructive on workshop pastas: I try to help correct grammar, point out plot holes, and make suggestions. If a story's on the main site, I'll usually just say whether I liked it or not and why and give it a rating out of ten.
