Once again, I have the college life. :P Which means lots of studying and hardly any goofing off. The workload is reasonable now, but... well... let's say very soon it won't be.

If you want a critique from me, TELL ME NOW.

Some people think that my critiquing style is a little rough, but I'm told it can be immensely helpful as well. I tend to have an essayist's perspective on things and love simplicity and correct grammar.

I critique prose of all styles and essays. I can also critically analyze a poem for you, but I couldn't give you any constructive critiques on it.

If you have an essay you need to have help on, put a little asterick beside it. Essays get priority treatment.

Also, if you've critiqued some of my work, you get priority treatment too.

Will you please rip this thing to shreds so that I can put it back together later? Please? *puppy eyes*

Could someone read:

'I Will Find You By Moonlight', by Kay Kay

It's somewhere in the Romantic forum...it's a cool story, but it needs some work and no one besides me is reading it.

Anything from The Pastel Unicorn would be appriciated, though what I'm really looking for is "What happens next?" ideas.

Okay... three done (well, I still need to do more for Kay Kay, but started!) Anybody else? I finished my calculus and chemistry hw, so right now I am not tied up.

And Rei... ;) I'll edit your entire story for you for a nominal fee.

Thanks Snoink for your critiques of my work. Though, I was hoping you'd be a lot harder on "Remember Lanie" than you were. In fact, if you could go back and tear it to shreads, that would possibly be wonderful. Thanks, doll!

Geez... you'd think it was a crime that I actually liked that story. ;)

Did you edit it since I looked at it?

Could you look at my story Changes please? I have to have the final version done by Christmas and it needs so much work I don't know where to begin sorry. :oops:

Nope. I'm writing character sketches for it right now, though. I've edited it mentally, if that makes sense.

:shock: What a compliment! See, if you're hard to please the better it is to get a compliment from you, eh?

Yes, you're right Sarah. The reason why I decided to continue writing was because the toughest critiquer I know actually said one of my stories was good. :shock:

Okay, hehe. I hope I don't leave you an emotional wreck for the rest of your life... :P
