Review number # 3 of week July 10-16, 2014 Hi Amanda. Your first name is the same as my youngest daughter. My name is Lyn and I am doing a review for Simply Positive. Please remember I am a writer, I know what it feels like to be reviewed! I have only my humble opinion to offer; please take what you feel is helpful and disregard the rest. Only YOU know what is right for your writing! Title: Forgotten. First Impression: I wondered what happened to the man that the author feared her attraction of him. What I liked: His presence I felt, I tried not to melt. It has been 14 years for my husband and I, to this day I still sense his presence and feel my silly heart skip. It has been that way from the first time I met him. Love is powerful and compels you whether you want it to or not. What needs your attention: I feel the author would gain by visually presenting this poem by centering it. When a poem is centered it jumps out to the reader saying look at me. I think it shows the authors confidence in their work and they are proud of their work. You have every reason to be. Favorite Parts: I think the heart bared showing it has been damaged and changed says a lot about the man's character. Overall Impression: The man appears to be a work in progress, hopefully he becomes everything he can be. I know that is easier said then done, but hope is eternal. Thank you for letting me read your work. It was my pleasure! Lyn
