Very detailed story and exacting character descriptions.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

Continue the story.

Review of October Challenge

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.

Review of Valentine Day 2019

Review of Over and Over Again

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:

A prelude to what I expect will be a scary story filled with strange and hidden aspects of this old house. There is a lot here and in a sense I felt like there was too much for the opening chapter.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

In the first sentence you have already personified the house (house was looming)ed. You have lumped together the description of the house, the surrounding area, some of the agreement to stay there and some of the past history of the house.

All this is too much at one time. Separate paragraphs and maybe even separate chapters for the more important items.

You also seem adverse to using commas. Spacing between paragraphs is a simple tool to organize different elements and make them stand out from each other.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

A lot of good stuff here. Organize it in a logical order and create a masterpiece.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:

Review of I've Been Looking For You

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:

A flash fiction story of a doctor doing a procedure to remove a tiny alien from a person's body.
He has already done two similar operations successfully. This one is giving him a problem.

I think a description of the small alien once it has been found in the body would add more fright to the story.

Keep sharing.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:

A good poem that i enjoyed. There is a witch who is greater than the other three. She seems to have been taken apart and now through some spell she is reforming piece by piece.

POETRY INFORMATION:

The poem is free verse. I read several times.
I found like most poems it is best when read aloud. I can imagine it read by Vincent Price in a slow almost spooky voice.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

Record it. Play it along with some other spooky Halloween sounds.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

It brings a slight chill that runs down your spine.

Review of Words That Reached My Soul

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:

I've read those three articles; the family reunion poem which reminded me of past days that I fear will never come again, the paper boy with the interaction between Bernard and Billy, it made me cry and by the time I had read it the third time my face was wet. The last of stories was a little different however just as powerful a piece. It also created within me a resolve to be a better man in this universe of diversity.

PLOT & CHARACTERS:

A great cast in these stories. I plan to carefully review each story so to bring honour to each writer.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:

Keep sharing with us the things that you have found that move your world and thoughts.

FINAL THOUGHTS:

This piece deserves a portfolio raid to see if I can gleem even more gems.
