Review of November 26, 1985

First and foremost, thank you for sharing your work . I am not an expert reviewer. I am just another writer, but I know it is the reviews that help us to perfect our craft. My opinions are just that; my opinions.

This is a great example of legal jargon and official terminology dealing with what seems to be a unwarrented and unsuspected violent crime.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

A few side bars to give the unaware people as to what is truely going on here.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

Thanks for sharing this item (I think)

Review of Dream Wolves

First and foremost, thank you for sharing your work . I am not an expert reviewer. I am just another writer, but I know it is the reviews that help us to perfect our craft. My opinions are just that; my opinions.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:

Interesting story. Perhaps it is all a dream. Wolves do not usually use chains to restrict their prey. Yellowknife is a fairly large community and the area around it also reasonably populated. It seems the large tract of land described in the story would have to be a fair distance from a town.

PLOT & CHARACTERS:

Ayla Lilly Fang has moved to Yellowknife from Vicksburg. there will be a large difference in so many things. weather, sunlight and distances between things just to name a few. The extremely large grey wolf seems to have human attributes.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

Who is Rick? There is too much I statements in the story. Describe what where who and why without always expressing what your only character is doing.
