I don't like using a template. I don't like correcting spelling. I don't like correcting grammar. I don't want to be your editor. I enjoy discussing what I have read. I am very happy to tell people what I have liked and what I have disliked. There is not a lot that I dislike.
I tend to write in depth reviews, discussing all aspects I feel need addressing. I am always positive and encouraging, but I'm also honest. If I feel something needs looking at, I will mention it.
I'm the lead editor for a small press and this is my pen name. I'll let you know whether I would have accepted your work as a submission and why or why not. If it's REALLY good, I'll let you know which press I'm with and invite you to submit your work to us. I'm particularly interested in controversial speculative fiction and polyamory a.k.a consensual non-monogamy.
I mainly look for the 'flow' of the story. If I'm reading along, & it's 'flowing' just fine...I'm talking no 'bumps in the road', or something that's going to make me pause...then it is a very well written story. But if I hit a 'bump', trust me, you gonna know! I also hate 'mus' punctuation...no commas or periods...it misplaced commas & periods.
In a single word, thorough. I will turn your piece upside down, shake the change out of its pockets and look at even the most minute details. I can be technical but will do so when emphasizing a larger point about the piece as a whole.
Casual for the most part. I will point out errors I see and offer suggested corrections. I like to focus on the content and formatting of the item. I love providing helpful comments and feedback that may improve the item if acted on.
I tend like to focus my reviews on commenting about how well a story is told and try to show my emotional reactions to it. I try not to focus on minor things like grammar and typos, but I will point out technical mistakes if they're egregious.
While I'll make an effort to point out things I like, I tend to focus my reviews on what can be improved. I don't go into exact changes to make, as I feel that you, as the writer, would no better what works with your work.
I will write a detailed review of your item that goes into detail about the positives and negatives of your item. I color code each section so everything is easy to see once you view your review.
I look for grammar and spelling mistakes and generally focus on how the piece reads like the flow and word choice. If you are just seeking a review of the overall story, just ask.
I am still a little new to review but I try to be as thorough as possible and point out any and all mistakes that I can find.
I will usually review anything that you request of me if I have time. Though there are a few genres and types of writing I don't really prefer.
I like to be analytical in my reviewing. The most interesting pieces of writing often work on a number of different levels, and so I try to consider multiple perspectives when informing the author of what I liked or disliked about their piece. For this reason, I don't get along very well with templates, as I find they turn the whole process into something very clinical! You can expect my reviews to be a fluid, tailored discussion of your individual work.
Honest, for the most part. Not hurtful, for the most part. In other words I'll try to be straight up but not step on you face while I'm about it.
Oh, by the way, this points business confuses me. I don't want to charge for a review. If I have the points in the bank I'll refund you 900. Why I'm required to ask 1000 is past my understanding.
Open, honest, kind. I'm a professionally published author so my feedback tends to be straightforward. I'm not good at making my writing fluffy but if I give praise, I truly mean it (and it's not easily given). I tend to avoid pieces that are too overly full of mistakes and issues as that is more time consuming than I have time for so please be sure to submit a full edited work, rather than a rough first draft.

While I will give input on any spelling, grammar, and punctuation, I much prefer to rate based on how the content flows and feels to me as a reader. Even if there is room for improvement, I always prefer to stay on the positive side of things. To be honest, every writer has room for improvement. We're all works in progress.
My review style will change to conform to the needs of the work. If I find no grammatical issues, I move onto something else, and I will always key on requested aspects of the piece per the author's instructions.
