Why does my wife want an iPad when she already has a Kindle Fire?

I think it's a bit ridiculous, they serve the exact same purpose. She won't even consider an Asus tablet which I think is superior and cheaper. I told her she has to try to sell the other device when she buys the new one.

What should I price my eBook? - 1

I'm planning to write a story. I'm an unknown teen who has never been published, but I am going to take advantage of Kindle Direct Publishing and try to make some money for doing what I love. I don't mean to sound pompous in any way, but I'm actually a very, very good writer, at least when it comes to fiction.

So, this is going to be a novella length e-book, though it is possible it may reach novel length, so it's not going to be in any way short.It is going to be a horror story, and the ultimate horror story. I mean, I'm going to try to GO THERE and make this one of the most disturbing, intense stories that you will ever read.

So, considering I make this promise and do a decent amount of amateur advertising (at which I am skilled) on YouTube and other sites, about where should I price my eBook? I was thinking about3 to 4 dollars. I know it's a little high, but I'm going to really put my all into this story.

Please be honest. If my cover promises one of the most disturbing horror stories you will read, and it is priced at about 3-4 bucks, would you purchase it? Thanks for any input.

Can you give advice on my poem?

Here is my poem, I would like you to pay attention to the structure of the poem. Can it be organized in a more poetic way?

Submergence within this ambience,
Defines the molten sapphire silence,
As it flows through pinnacle moments,
Down until the ocean floor

The depthifying sea abyss,
Contradicts my fear of oblivion,
As I remember of the darkest, and ancient monsters
told in the tales of the ocean's folklore

Suddenly Moissanite glints echo to my conscience,
I turn to see twinkling fish, begging me to follow their guidance,
And though I am mystified, insecure and unsure,
A celestial temptation draws me to them, as if to take me to my ethereal amour

Deeper and duskier and denser is my descent
But I must follow the beautiful diamond trail
And though I contend to coldness and struggle against the voluminous pressure coming from all sides
My hair dances with the undulating violence and I feel genuine

But then the glints kindled into absence
My horror is excruciating as I realize the deceit in the onyx
As it bleeds into my conscience
My pinnacle memories tightens the bonds
And my sedimentary fear drags me to depression's core

I lay at rock bottom as a prisoner in this abyss
For many dull years, or maybe minutes
Never again reaching my pinnacle memories,
As my figment movements are taken over

But then, I swiftly wake to warm sparks
That are chasing away the prisonning darkness
And I whisper, the perforated syllables sinking in doubt, " Amour?"

The spark grows into a delicate, blinding, brilliance
The feathering warmth gashes through my chains, murdering the coldness
The savoring and refreshing glow ribbons and envelops me into a sweet cadence
And I realized the light of hope had summoned my saviour

Now, neither the sky is above, nor the Earth is below
My saviour whispers the glowing words enlightening my essence
" You are saved, and now only you are here"
"Yes," I say, "Only me, my breath, and my heartbeat"
"The monsters had saved me"
"I now know how to believe in my existence"

What do you believe to be the meaning of the poem?

Can you make any suggestions to improve the structure of the poem?

In the fourth stanza, and fourth line, should I break that into two lines?

In the fifth stanza and last line, should I change it to " And my sedimentary fear drags me to depression" instead of "And my sedimentary fear drags me to depression's core"?

Who do you think amour and the saviour are?

Do you like my poem?

Thank You!

Also, is there any punctuation that I need to fix?

Best Tablet for Reading PDFs?

I need a tablet that can read PDFs and is relatively large. Here are my requirements:

-Handle PDFs well (adjust scaling, take notes, flip through pages quickly)
-Large touchscreen, preferably 7'' or more
-Memory not so important, only need a few GB
-Long battery life
-Reliable
-Lowest price possible

I was looking at Amazon's line of Kindles, but saw many people complained that they don't do well with PDF files. Anyone have a current generation Kindle (if so please tell me the model) that can affirm or deny this?

Does this competition seem genuine?

I got this leaflet through my door advertising a short story and poem competition. I sent off an email asking for an application form this is what it says:

NO ENTRY FEE

Can I give an email as a forwarding address, or does it have to be a physical address? I'd rather not give all my information out to everyone, and I'm fifteen so it's even more risky. I don't want to ask my parents because then there'd be pressure on me to win, and that would kill everything.

I looked it up and I only found an under-13's competition, from the BBC, but that's not this one.

I'm confused. Help, please? Thanks.
