Is the winning book going to be this poorly worded?

Is the writing going to be like that throughout and are we going to get obsolete wording? Oh and does anyone have a well formatted ePub version in case I do decide to read it? |

Sorry, but I truly do detest Jane Austen and won't be reading anything of hers. Last edited by JSWolf; 01-03-2013 at 05:44 PM. |

You are the CRUISE KING!
My wallet shudders when I even mention the word "cruise" to it. |

When you go on vacation (not cruising) you have to pay for the hotel, the food (2 or 3 meals a day) plus food is available 24/7 and any sort of entertainment you want to see. As for food, on the last cruise, they served lobster tails twice and I had double portions as well as other seafood, steak, prime rib, lamb, pasta, and all other sorts of expensive food that was included in the price. It's all good, too good. It's worth it. More so then a lot of typical vacations. |
