Young Writers Society

Okay, so here's the deal:

I'm on holiday as of yesterday, so I have a bit of time to get some reviews done. If you would like a review, all you need to do is post a link here, and I will try to get it done as soon as possible.

My rules are simple:

1) Don't pay me anything. I have more than enough points than I need..

2) Don't give me more than two pieces to do at one time. If you do, I will review the first two, and return to the rest after I have caught up with all the remaining reviews in the queue.

3) I would like some sort of reply through either PM or a guestbook entry telling me if my review helped and what parts you found most helpful. I'd also like to know where I did not provide as much insight as I should have. While this is not exactly necessary, I'd be grateful if you did it.

As far as the rules go, that's it. Now, here's my break down of what I will and what I will not review:

What I enjoy reviewing:
Fantasy
Science Fiction
Other Fiction
Action and Adventure Fiction

What I will review despite the fact that it is not quite what I'm used to:
Historical Fiction
Non-fiction

What I will not review:
Fanfiction
Poetry
Romantic Fiction
Anything rated R (unless the R rating is exclusively for violence, in which case I'd like you to please tell me this when you post your link).

Please can you post your links in the following format:
Name:
Genre:
Link:

If you would like to see a couple of examples of my reviews, some urls follow:

I look forward to seeing some of your work!

Have a great one!

EDIT: I'm back at school, so I can't make any promises about when reviews will be done. You'll have to just let me do them in my own time.

So, tomorrow I go back to school again. This means that I will likely not have as much time to review as I have up until now. I will continue to review stuff posted here, but please from now on post a maximum of one piece at a time.

I'll try not to allow the wait for a review to get too long, but I fully expect this to be the most busy quarter I ever have at school, so I can't make any promises. Last minute assignments are handed out and everyone is going to rush to finish their syllabuses. We'll see how it goes, but if it's too tough I might have to close the thread.

Ermixon, the piece that you asked me to review is very long. I see that you only have one review, and the length is probably the reason for this. What I'd advise doing to get more reviews is to break up the piece into small enough parts and post them individually. You will certainly get more reviews this way.

I'll start on reviewing it tomorrow, but I hope you won't mind that I break the reviews up and critique each piece separately. It's just much easier for me to do it this way especially now that I have less time. In fact I suspect at the end of the day it will boil down to seven or eight critiques.

what about fan-fiction? You don't have to know anything about Silent Hill. I just need my chapter 3 reviewed, also if you like it you can continue to read and review ^_^



topic50929.html -chapter 3


If you need a summary here it is.


what happen if My friends and I went to a boarding school in Silent Hill (Basicly it is hell on earth)

prologue - Crimson, Allie, Ali, and Lizzy are having an interview with a doctor in a mental hospital.

chapter 1- Crimson get's scared by a ghost, and she tells Allie, Ali and Lizzy what happened at Breakfast. Then Ali has a nightmare about Lizzy burning.

chapter 2- Allie has a dream about Lizzy burning and meets the ghost girl. Crimson, Allie and Ali talk about the dreams and how they might be a premonition. Lizzy decides to go ghost hunting.

I hope you will review chapter 3! ^_^

Hey Maki,

I actually forgot to include that I don't really do Fanfic as a rule, but I will review your piece in any case. *Heads off to change guidelines*

I hope I'll get the chance in the next couple of days but I can't make any promises.

Ermixon, I've done the first piece of yours. I'll carry on reviewing you in bits. I'm usually most helpful that way.

Do you mind taking a look at the first part of a science fiction short story, "Other"?

Thanks very much in advance! ^^

Okay everyone,

I've got enough reviews to be getting on with. I'm not going to be taking any more requests until I've finished the ones I've got on my plate now. I expect I'll reopen again in about a week, but I'm closing up shop until then.

Later!
