Title says it all.

I'm doing a bit of a splurge of my own at the moment on my new project Enslaved to Duty, and for that I need points!

So if you want a detailed review, post a link here and I'll review.

My reviews tend to be rather broad in scope, depending on what stands out to me as the most needed feedback, so it could be plot, characterisation, spelling and grammer or exposition. If you want my review to focus on anything in particular, just let me know and I'll try to tailor it to fit.

I'm open to anything really, but fantasy, science fiction, supernatural and adventure stories are probably my strongest suit. Failing that, bring me your poor and downtrodden (which is to say, I don't know, poetry?) and I'll be happy to give you my thoughts.

Sweet as, see you on your threads!
So you're going to kill a god. Sure. But what happens next?

Hello there Rubic,

I'm somewhat of a new fantasy writer. Is it alright if I get the ball rolling for you?
I'm currently working on this: work.php?id=95342

It is the prologue (edited version) of the story I'm currently working on. I have received a couple reviews for it already, but I am always looking for new insight to help me improve! There is no rush either, take as long as you want.
When I was young I used to have problems finishing my sentences, but now I

Hello Rubric,

I noticed that you haven't received any more requests here lately. (Which is a shame, because your critiques are wonderful.)

So I've come to request your opinion on this one:
work.php?id=95343
work.php?id=95346

This is chapter 1 of the project I'm working on right now. It was a little long, so I split it up. I should warn you though, it is not a direct continuation of the "prologue" you reviewed for me earlier. (New characters/new time period)

Whenever you get around to it is fine. Thanks in advance!

Hi Rubric, i've seen you like and comment on some of my work relating to my novel and since you say you like fantasy as a genre, well i figured that it may be helpful if you could read mine,

work.php?id=94517

it is lengthy and to be honest, only read as much as you want, if you want. i don't want to take up too much of your time, but any feedback in any form is appreciated. generally i need to get some feedback on what the story as a whole is like, rather than grammar which i can sort out later,i also need to know how people feel about the characters to see if they are portrayed right.

anyway, if you can spare the time to have i look i will greatly appreciate it!

Thanks,
Ash :D

Hello again Rubric! It is I, DudeMcGuy! Your most loyal customer!

I am here to request another critique from you. Could you take a look at Ch.2 for me?

work.php?id=95667

This is essentially a character development type of chapter (which I forgot to split into parts so it is kind of long), so there is not much world-building going on this time.

Truth be told, since you're a fantasy expert, I was hoping to ask you to review some of the upcoming chapters as well. But it wouldn't be fair to ask you to review something with no context.

Maybe we could be partners or something? Is there anything you've written that you would like me to review? Just let me know.

Hey Dude (and everyone else) I'm doing some intense exam revision for the next week, so I'll be a bit slack on reviews until then. It could be that your proposed work has had a fair few reviews by then, but I'll still give you my thoughts and let you know what I think.

Peace out until July.

Exams are done but I'm heading on a camp in a few days. I'm open for business but there could be short delays until the first week of July!

Hey Rubric! I would love it if you could take a look at the first part of my novella, Sazerac. And of course, I will return the favor once the next part of your project is produced. :wink:

Thanks!
