The organisation of your portfolio is a work of art in itself. In describing all sorts of furious storms to lighthearted breezes, you have covered the gambit here.
Very creative. I also like the humour in your beginning. You've given me such a choice, I don't know where to start!
An interesting survey to cast your vote -- not for your favorite Looney Tune character, but more specifically which feud. Interesting on a Saturday morning as I long for the good old cartoons. . .
With specific language like "nefarious ways," "infernal hunger, and "insidious craving," this writer shows eloquent use of language to portray a perspective.
There is very picturesque movement, as one element of our nature calls to another. This is very good!
This is a beautiful narrative of a beautiful personal experience. Rich in detail of sight and sense of every sort, the only thing missing is being there, and the belief.
As an American, I am ashamed to admit that the building up of the event feels to me, like getting ready to go to the rock concert of my life. Perhaps I have real life and spirituality confused.
What an innocent and thoughtful story! I love cats, and the title totally threw me off. This is more than a story of a boy and his cat!
Your organization on this is great. I like the page formatting, and all the punctuation looks right to me. Good Job! I always have to go back and double check my quotes and commas when writing dialogue. You've got great word choice is this one!
This is a short story and a very good read. One is expecting the unexpected, and the writer gives just the right details at the end.
I must investigate your folder more. I think others would be interested in you folder, and writings, and images, and sigs, and all you've got going on!
Great idea! More people ought to look into your folder. You've got lots of great stuff going on!
I'm feeling lonely on my birthday today, 12/05/xx, because aI'm alone with my pets tonight. Do you have a special birthday sig to order? Does anybody on the site have those two sets of info, birthdays and what not?
Congratulations on all your accomplishments, and write on. Can you dig it?
Be of peace, and good cheer ~ a sunflower in Texas
I like the concept of "haunted pillows." I believe I have had one of those in my bed tonight, as again I do the 36-48 hour day.
"A night without sleep does leave one at a disadvantage," she agreed most heartily at 6:47 am, day two.
My time warp without sleep greatly appreciates the creative way you have rendered the old insomniac situation. Your rhythm is relxing, and your rhyme most complete.
Thanks for the great article about reviewing our writers and friends work. As we count our blessings this Thanksgiving weekend, we must certainly include the good things that come from being involved with our fellow writer's efforts.
This piece directly discussed the pros and cons of what well intentioned, but slightly "off-key" critiques birth.
There's a great section on how to tread gingerly, but carefully, through another writer's work so that both the reader and the writer get positive strokes for their efforts. Isn't that the best part of Writing.com?
Thanks for the detailed explanation of the pass key option.
I'm planning to discuss peace and world topics with a new friend from India. We're going to call it East West Political Letters: Across the Internet Sea.
We're both excited about bantering in professional language, and discussing problems that might have solutions, without outside influence. This seems a good way to set it up. This was easy to find because I'd seen it in bold blue print before.
Thanks again, Writing.com, for putting what I need right under my nose.
How cool! To get a reviewing badge, and be ranked as a top 100 reviewer is fantastic! I was just going along, doing my thing.
I'm honored to know that the way I interact with other Writing.com members has been helpful.
I always try to include a good comment, to weigh out any suggestions (which might be interpreted as negative--because we HAVE to be denfensive about our own work, don't we?)
Thank you Writing.com, for hosting such a fine writing community. a sunflower in Texas
I like this a lot. You have a physical progression, as well as the emotional. I like that this poem is short, but completes the feeling in so few words.
One suggestion I'd offer: put in some commas, and periods, to give the reader the flow you want with your words. As it is, one reads line-by-line, which is okay, and works fine. This poem will evolve with the passage of time, I think.
Write on, my Friend. You've done a great job with this one! Peace, sunflower
This is an eloquent and simple request of a teenager, realizing she's between steps: no longer a child, and not yet an adult.
Descriptions of her remembrances of "best est" friends, and ice cream, jump rope rhymes {?}, slice through childhood, leaving her with realizations of future spirit in her life.
This is a good read, bringing back fond memories we all have.
There was a song with the lines, "on the edge of seventeen" (can you hear Stevie Nicks?). This author describes with well chosen words, and left me with a good feeling at the end.
I must admit that though the first paragraphs I read were very interesting, even compelling in the emotion portrayed through the voice of the speaker, I was distracted--or not focused in my reading--because of the LONG length of your paragraphs. Despite the fact that this is real good, I couldn't make my eyes focus.
I see this is a very long work. What I read was worded in a contagious manner. I wanted to know more.
When you get a chance, would you consider going back and putting in more paragraphs, resulting in more white space on the page.[/b} I just can't keep my attention focused.
Sending this review publically, in hopes that someone with better eyes than myself can give you the higher rating that this work truly deserves.
Do you consider the contributions of Monhandas Ghandi or Mahatmas Ghandi to be the historic cornerstone of non-violent protests in India? I'm not up on my Indian politics, as I suppose I should be in this global world technology of 2004.
It is a pleasure to read through the many subjects, and genres, you have produced. You have a thick port!
Your expertise in reading dense subject matter is apparent. Your ability to communicate and create in multiple languages is most impressive--and I must say I'm a bit envious.
Are we a similar people separated by a common language? I'm not used to seeing the word "learnt."
Good for you! You made me check my dictionary! Twice!!
Your essay does a good job explaining the pitfalls, and other things you learned from hard knock experience, organizing your first contest. Details abound.
This article is a "must read," for those interested in organizing, or participating in writing contests. To see into the processes inside a judge's perview is most interesting.
One could learn much, about many things, while cruising through your folders. I find the meticulous way in which you have explained your first contest to be both compelling, and somewhat intimidating. Your organization is most excellent, but your wording seems, to me, a bit intense.
Thanks for putting the link in front of my nose. Daily Review Rewards offer a great opportunity to get LOTS of GPs and contribute to the great quality of work on this site.
{{c:blue}Thanks SO MUCH for this section which fully explains enticing readers into your port. We all want readers for our writing, and you've got the key to get them into our writing doors. WOW!
All these new fangled computer gadget thingies you guys keep coming up with are phenomenal.
This is beautiful, so full of heart, imagery, and symbolism. Your repeating meter is mesmerizing. You rich comparisons are great. This is really good stuff!!! sunflower
