    Well, that was an interesting beginning. Technicalities first, though. You have way too many run on it's like you don't even know, when a sentence ends and when it's time ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Romantic, Humor Re: Prologue: Of Love and Friendship

    Well, this actually wasn't half bad. It wasn't until the middle paragraph that I had a major reading 'bump in the road.' "I made two new friends..." is the sentence. ...

    Interesting idea. I liked how you gave yourself a set of words you had to include, and fit them really well into the poem. And then I liked the analogy ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Supernatural, Fantasy Re: Realm of Darkness - Prologue

    Okay, this is really rough. I don't mean in the stage of writing; I mean reading wise. Second sentence is awkward, just doesn't feel right. Third sentence, after that second ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Fantasy, Romantic Re: Dreammaker Part 1 - Boy or Girl?

    Three words. Oh. My. Stars. That was amazing. I loved this! You had good technique, nothing grammatically wrong screaming in my ear the whole time from a major typo or ...

    That was a mess. Really, a total mess. You need to pick one Point of View and stick with it, or make it abundantly clear that there are TWO PoVs ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Romantic, Realistic Re: Run And Hide. (Edited)

    Okay, first of all your prologue is way too short (and typo-ed; you need to put the U behind the G). Also, you need to fix your spacing. There should ...

  • Short Story » Realistic, General Re: Broken Bottles

    That was a very...interesting story. You had some good, you had some bad [quality wise]. Here's where I see the biggest issue with your story (technical details aside): you're trying ...

  • Short Story » Humor, General Re: Memoirs of a Snack

    I shall leave the Grammar alone (due to the fair warning). But on that note it actually wasn't that bad. And I thought your descriptions were good at masking what ...

  • Short Story » Romantic, Fantasy Re: Sylvia and The Dark Prince: Part 1

    All right, technical details first. In your first sentence, the verb should be 'lay' not 'lie'. Also, several times throughout [don't remember specifically where] you had comma splices, which should ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Supernatural, Teen Fiction Re: A Heart Of Secrets

    Okay, two...okay, maybe a few things. First off, I don't know why this is, but the first two paragraphs just didn't engage me. I don't know why, but they didn't. ...

  • Novel / Chapter » General, General Re: Whispered tale- Prologue

    This was a descent prologue, but it left me feeling very...unsure what exactly the old man's stories are. Sure, it's supposed to be about paranormal, but what kinds of paranormal? ...

  • Poetry » Narrative, Health Re: Stalemate

    I'm not a huge poetry person, but I felt kind of lost on how the title relates to the poem itself. Your poem was great, especially the first part, and ...

    Well, as an avid fan of ATLA [who felt totally stupid for not realizing that's what it stood for after having read the acronym's meaning previously], I found this very ...

  • Novel / Chapter » Science Fiction, Action / Adventure Re: Sign- Chapter One

    This was descently written, and the plot is interesting, but I have two things to recommend. 1) that you use less of italics, or less of [I] italics . 2) ...
