Thank you for your input, and I agree completely. Excessive or unnecessary atonality is usually disruptive of my enjoyment of any piece, unless the composer has planned it all perfectly and is able to create a beautiful color rather than a "wrong note". It's like the fine line that separates the good avant-garde from the bad.
Now, I am nowhere near being a master of harmonies, but the only instance of dissonance that I am somewhat nervous about is the C,F#,B chord in measure 12. I rather enjoy it, but it makes my mom cringe and makes other people kind of tilt their head with a quiet "hmm". I may change it later on if it doesn't work out at all, but I like to think of it as testing the audience. I'm just curious about what I can get away with and still keep my audience's interest. Just an idea.
