It seemed natural and it flowed real well.It was as if everyone was speaking with their own mind!Good job with that!

Overall comments:

I think that if your characters adhere to the many points in this piece then they will lead a long, and happy life.I hope to see more work from you in the future as long as it is copywrited.

Just wanted to be a little goofy considering this thread has accomplished its purpose.

Good luck everyone on all your endeavors.

The one for us says flat out that they won't protect you but the American one does, that's about all the research I needed to run to the WGA instead of the WGC.

It may cost more but they provide a better service.

Also I'm no stranger to buying/spending money in America (Spend over 300 bucks American on CD's last year alone ha-ha I'm a whore. Some came from Germany, others from different places)

Keep in mind that all that copyrighting (or registering with WGA) does is show that you had possession of the material at the time you submitted it.  It does not prove that you, indeed, wrote it.

Copyright... copyrigh... copyright........ If you had an agent they should give you the prioper advice, mine tells me to go through the WGA... I aint even American.... All this Copyright stuff really does a guys head in..

well what if you don't have an agent and you're just a naive little 15 year old boy, who's not an american, aspiring writer who sucks at grammar and is dying to have his stuff read?

Copyright it.
