This Is A Review By Krystxn*. Remember, Everything I Write Is Just My Opinion. Feel Free To Listen To / Ignore Anything I May Say
Hello, Belle Avida ! I see that you are new to the website, and i hope that you have a wonderful time here. The people are so nice and helpful
My review will be broken into 3 categories: My First Impression ( What I think before I read ), My Thoughts While Reading ( Self Explanitory ) and My Suggestions ( What I think you could change / improve ) I hope you find this review helpful! Let's read, shall we?
My First Impression: First, i ask that you click on the " double space paragraphs" button before submiting work. It can be found at the bottom of the edit page. It truly does make things a lot easier to read.
I also note that your chapters are a little short. This is no problem however, because i have come to learn that some readers and authors like their stories to have short chapters, and be a little fast paced. It all depends on what you like
I like the idea of your story, it is what drew me in to read.
Ok, enough chit chat ! Let's get reading!
My Thoughts While Reading: This was an intersting read, with a bit of a twist at the end. i see where you are going, and i like the idea of bringing the characters back and creating a sort of "modern day fairy tale".
Unfortunately, i found a few errors, and i think it could have used a little work.
I liked the title of your first chapter!
My Suggestions: I have a few things i would like to suggest for you. I will try to keep them in the order they appear in the story. I know you are new to the site so i hope i do not come off as rude in any way or form. I am simply here to help you become a better writer, you can take my suggestions or you can ignore them. You as the author should decide
First thing I noticed was a simple spelling error:
pesent peasant
I actually had to look this up on the internet because I thought it was spelt "pesant". We all make mistakes!
"Well,. . . Well . . .
Note how I eliminated the comma. Because you are using "..." after the word, the comma is not needed since "..." pretty much means the same thing!
Speaking of commas, there were several places in your story where I felt a comma could be added:
he asked trying to comfort her. he asked, trying to comfort her.
Actually I don't like you at all I'm in love with Belle. Actually I don't like you at all, I'm in love with Belle.
After the tragic thing that happened Jay went to the forest and there was a cabin.Jay laid on the floor and he cried his eyes out thinking about every moment he ever had with his one true love. After the tragic thing that happened, Jay went to the forest and there was a cabin. Jay laid on the floor and he cried his eyes out, thinking about every moment he ever had with his one true love.
Note how i included 2 sentences and added 2 commas.
There were a few others, but i did not note them.
dignaty Dignity
before se before she
cautiousley cautiously
nexr next
I did not see anymore spelling errors, but i may have missed some.
Her father has cancer so, Isabelle is going to take care of him. Her father has cancer, so Isabelle is going to take care of him.
Note how i just moved the comma
Okay, that's all for the spelling / grammar suggestions. However, i do still have a little more to say. ( Sorry ! )
It occured to me that some of your sentences are short and there is not much detail, and things are not explained very well. I have found some places where you may want to expand on, It may truly help your story:
The princess had secret meetings with a peasant
You may want to describe how both Belle and Jay fell in love, it could add on quite a bit to the beginning.
She had never seen Belle so graceful unless it was in her deep blue dresses. Vivian always wore black dresses.
Why does she always run so gracefully in deep blue dresses? Are they her favorite? Why does Vivian always wear black dresses?
When Anna had her class with Jay she flirted her crown off.
What did she do to flirt with him? Why was she flirting with him? Was she jealous? If so, Why?
These are just all suggestions for the first chapter, as a writer i have come to learn that while writing you must always ask yourself Why? It helps to elaborate and explain things that may be confusing to the reader.
Speaking of confusing, i have one more point to make!
Belle went to the immortal's palace and asked tham to turn her immortal. They did as she asked.
Why does she want to become immortal? And if she's immortal, how does she try to kill herself? You may want to clarify
Overall, this was not bad. I give it ... 3.5 stars, Not bad! I felt like it could use a little work, but we are all here on the website to learn and improve our writing There's always room for improvement! I know you can do it! Keep Writing!
