Young Writers Society

There are lots of different literary works on YWS. If you have the hunger that only reviewing can satisfy, what do you choose?

I usually choose poetry! I love diving in to the layers of metaphor, language, rhythm, rhyme etc. There's so much to play with!

Guys, if you like rhyming poetry, then you should use a rhyming dictionary.
I got one as a present from my mother.

I should have chosen novel's . . . >> If you've ever looked at any of my novel reviews then you'll know why.

Rhyming dictionary? where !?

I think at Barns&Noble

I like to review Short Stories the best because it's short (If too long, it's kinda hard for me to remember stuff and I don't want to spend lots of time reading it and reviewing it.)
High chance of reviewing.
My second best is Novel and Chapters. It can be longer so that's something that's bad. But I do like waiting for the next chapter to come out.
Half chance of reviewing.
My thirds are and their reasons:
Articles - not my type.
Lyrics - I'm trying to an author, not a singer, I don't really know about them either. I dun like them.
Script - Nope
Other - Depends.
Little chance of reviewing.

Fourthies time! Poetry. Poetry.
I'm not a good poet so I can't tell which is good and bad in a poem. So if I review them, it's gonna be a poopy one for sure >.> I can't write good ones either.
Very little chance of reviewing.

I prefer to review poetry personally because it's easier to format the review without missing things out (I think).
Short stories would be second, but it depends what genre.
Novels third because they're like shorts I guess.
Lyrics in my opinion are impossible to review when we don't have the music to it as well.
I haven't really read the articles or scripts on here yet.

So yeah. . .

I enjoy reviewing novels. I feel that by reviewing novels I can also improve my own abilities in that area. If you've seen any of my novel reviews they're very long and in depth and I usually spend 1-2 days writing them. I like to make sure the authors get the best review possible because I would expect the came courtesy extended to my own work.

I also enjoy reviewing short stories for the same reason.

Poetry would be next in line because I also write a little bit in that area as well!

Really, I enjoy reviewing anything. Well, maybe not essays and articles. Okay, I enjoy reviewing any piece of fiction. If it interested me I'm going to read and review it. That's my philosophy.

My favorite to review is novels. I'm not really sure why to be honest. I guess because I like seeing a novel come together and I can help that process along. Not to mention I really enjoy reading them And I like writing them too so I feel compelled to review them.

I Mostly Review Poetry And Sometimes Stories
Cause Thats What Interests Me More.

Poetry and Short Stories. But I really do like novels, as long as I have been following them from the beginning! I don't really like suddenly delving in....

I wish I could have chosen two. I put poetry, but I also like reviewing Articles/ Essays, because you can find a lot of interesting pieces in that section, plus they're often pretty easy to review.

Poetry's often short, so it's less overwhelming. It's also easier to get away with things, because "I are poet." >.>

Lyrics I mush together with poetry because they're so similar. I've never actually composed; just written lyrics--I review what I write, basically.

Scripts are not my thing and novels intimidate me. Short stories are fine, and--I don't even remember seeing an article here.

Proetry.
