Well, it looks like most of the topics left in the Will Review For Food subforum that are marked active aren’t really active.

So I figured I’d make one!

I’m still a little rusty, but I’d love to give this a shot for the first time in my 19 years on YWS.

Tell me what you want me to mostly focus on, be it grammar or themes or plot or characterization or something else.

I can do poetry too! I’m pretty versatile, and openminded. I can handle really scary or mature writing of all kinds as well.

There are things I might be uninterested in reviewing, but if you post something like that I’ll politely let you know in DM so you won’t be waiting on a review from me.

Alright, go for it!

Well I did mention my wishes in PM XD
“Are you serious?”
“Completely.”
“You’re telling me that you'll get to sleep on a king-sized bed while we have to share a tiny room with two bunk beds.”
“I want to sleep on top!”
“Tommy, you’re not helping.”

Howdy! I'd love to get a review from you on a recent work I published; it's a script for a short play, so I don't know if that would be up your alley, but here's a link just in case --> The Hunt for the Delawackus

As far as things to focus on, I'm mainly concerned about the pacing and character motivations coming across and making sense. Thanks a bunch, and no pressure or anything.

Loved it! Will have a review coming up addressing some concerns in that area.

Hi Aet! Finished a Sci-Fi/horror story. It’s in its early stages for drafts. I have it Rated R for language and adult themes. 16+. So, if none of that bothers you, here is the link. “The Fog”
:)
The sadness drains through me rather than skating over my skin. It travels through every cell to reach the ground. I filter it yet strangely enough, I keep what was pure and it is the dirt that leaves.

Holy crap I can’t believe I didn’t review that cute thing. I will shortly! Also checking out The Fog and definitely have thoughts!

Hello! Yes.

I have a terrible pattern that has emerged where I prioritize the Green Room because the works that have been posted in here technically have two reviews, but that's forgetting something important which is that they have two reviews, but no review from me!

I'll fix that today now that you've called me out and briefly postpone the Green Room review I am in the middle of. And if you have something for me to review, I'd love to check it out!

Done! I realize now I didn't comment on character motivations really but that was because they all worked.

Hey fishr! Just in case you see this I wanted to let you know that I have not forgotten about this and I'm definitely reviewing it still, I just haven't managed to read it all in one sitting yet! I love the crazy vibe!

@herb Hello hello! I have been lurking in wait for just such an occasion and will review this.

To anyone else interested in submitting, just know that I’ll remember to change the status of this topic if I’m no longer active.

*mind magic trick*
you want to read more digimon
“Are you serious?”
“Completely.”
