Hey! Wow, you really want some business, huh?

I'm happy to comply! =) Would you mine critiquing this? And be incredibly harsh to the point where my protaganist is on her knees, sobbing her eyes out? Anything along those lines?

This is a contest entry for the contest JFW1415 is holding, and I want it to, well, sort of win. It probably won't, looking at the other entries, but I want to try my best. The ending is really cliche, because it involves vampires, and that's just about what every story has in it these days.. but, besides that, note everything else.

Thanks so much! Here's the link!

Heya

It would be cool if you could take a look at one of my stories. I don't know how to link... I forgot Embarassed so I'll just say the name. The Ultimatum, in Adventure/Action. It went really unnoticed, and no one has reviewed it so far, so I'd really appreciate it if you did!

Do you have something you want critiqued? I haven't been critiquing enough lately either haha Very Happy

Hey, um, I'm kind of new here, I guess. My first post got sort of unclear and relatively unhelpful reviews. I forget how to post completely, so the title's Chapter 1 (Maybe)
the maybe part's actually in the title. and it's in action/ adventure fiction.


Please critique if you have the time.
I really appreciate it!


PM me sometime!

Wow, you would actually do this for people? You're so kind! *All hail Once upon a time!*

Could you review my first chapter of Ellima and the Cerulean Crystal? I'd be ever so grateful Smile. Itis in fantasy fiction, or just go to my portfolio. I'd put a link, but I have no idea how to do it Sad

You review for food, so: here's a cookie!
