Solid romance. I do not mind romance as a secondary storyline, but not as the only focus. I love the Outlander series but not into the Harlequin-type genre...unless it is M/M. I have my preferences, what can I say?

I enjoyed reading The Blind Visionary. I was drawn into the story by the vivid description of the protagonist's surroundings and how he saw those surroundings. The only suggestion I could offer in way to potentially make this story even better, would be to alter the title. It gives away what I felt was one of the main punches of the story- that despite what the protagonist saw, he was blind.

Review of Where to Next?  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (3.0)
I enjoyed reading Where to Next?. I was drawn into story by the vivid image created as Robert and Abigail started to go through the attic. You illustrated character points in both Robert and Abigail within the story- his eagerness, his fear of the dark and how Abigail, although being younger by a few moments, was the more mature of the two.

I do have a couple of suggestions to sharpen the story- watch your tenses and punctuation.

A good start though and I look forward to hearing more of the twin's adventures!

I enjoyed reading The Lion Loses His Family. It was a cute story for children. I have a few suggestions to tighten the piece up-
~I would change the title- the story isn't about how the lion lost his family, but rather the search for his lost family so perhaps something like The Lion's Search for His Family.
~ You did a great job keeping the sentence structure simple yet expressive, something very important when writing a children's story but this piece needs some editing to fix up the punctuation errors.

I enjoyed reading Oh how things have changed. I grew up in the 80s in America, but my grandmother was my primary caregiver (mom was working) and although my diet wasn't much different than other folks of my generation, the sentiments you spoke about- about brown bread, peeling potatoes, fish and prunes were ones my grandmother would talk about.

I loved your last line... especially about the elbows. Great piece!

Since this piece wasn't a story, more of a historical free-verse, I did not rate using characters, plot, and or resolution.

Review of Trader's Circle  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
I enjoyed reading Trader's Circle. It was a short piece, but you have not only a good story, but a solid start in the creation of a post-apocalyptic universe. I admit I did have to read twice, I was confused at Byron and Althea's relationship- I thought he had abandoned her completely- rather than the actual situation.

I hope that you continue to write in this universe.

Review of The Train Home  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed reading The Train Home. This short historical fiction piece was a great look at a part of history that, until very recently, was seldom talked about. Your characters were minimal, but were they were perfect. It allowed the reader to put themselves into the piece, especially when listening to the vile older couple (which also provided the window into how something like this happened here in America).

Great story that entertains and passes along important historical fact.

Review of The Bug-Man Sting  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: ASR | (4.0)
I enjoyed reading The Bug-Man Sting. It was a very funny piece. In very few words you gave a funny mystery with a twist. I enjoyed how Preston was so set on his revenge against Glen that he couldn't even see the potential true thief- Ezekiel.

There were a few spots where some punctuation could have sharpened the story, but all in all, a solid piece!

Review of Mr Right  
Rated: E | (3.5)
I enjoyed reading Mr. Right. This free verse poem depicted the thrill and despair that love can bring, especially if that love is not returned, or even if it is, it can never be.

Some editing as far as the punctuation could have sharpened the poem's impact.

Review of The Void  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed reading The Void. A short, but extremely powerful poem. It speaks of familial and ancestral memories for me- memories we can't exactly recall and grasp, but the emotions handed down to us can bind us as firmly and direct our own course, how we view others, and how we behave.
