Re: The Descent of Ophiuchus, [1] /P
For the most part, this was superb. Your style was contagious, your characters were down to earth and realistic, and you've paced everything wonderfully. This was an excellent prelude for ...

Re: Ice Blue Chapter one! (it'll make sense later)
Okay, first of all, no one is going to steal this. For multiple reasons. And don't worry about that here, anyway. YWS is safe. One hundred percent. I had mixed ...

Re: The Hero of Treal (working title)
Okay, there are some problems with this piece. There are problems with most fantasy. It's a fact of life. Tolkein set us all up for generations of cliche and repetition. ...

Re: The Priceless Bounty
This was a good start, but little on the slow side and somewhat cliche/contrived. You're on dangerous ground as it is writing a piece about bounty hunters. I'll follow this ...

Re: Wings
Okay. I can see from this piece that you have a strong grasp on the english language. Maybe too strong a grasp. You were very wordy, your desriptions were heavy ...

Re: The Beast Within
I really liked this. Normally, I don't go for rhyming poetry because I feel it's far too easy to come across as immature and...nonsensical, but you really pulled it off. ...

Re: Rain Storm
Yes, a very nice piece of flash fiction. You managed to capture the beginning of a storm brilliantly. There are no characters, however, and it is very difficult to portray ...

Re: Sons of Fire
First off, I noticed this piece had the same problems that "Jumping Jax" had. Too short. It doesn't excite the reader at all. I don't care about the story, the ...

Re: Something Out There
(Does this belong in fantasy?) Okay. Unlike everybody else, I wasn't partial to this piece. I found the description awkward and the internal dialogue confusing. The beginning portion - which ...

Re: Chapter One
Good start, but too much telling. If I want to learn about a war or rebellion from a detatched narrator, I'll read a history book, not a novel. Never tell ...

Re: The Prologue to My Book. Duty Calls.
First of all, this belongs in the science fiction forum. Second of all, and for the most part, this was entertaining. Your description could use some work and the story ...

Re: Truthseeker: Prologue
