I write a long running series, which means I deal with continuity and internal realism a lot. I generally try to analyze and go in depth with my reviews when said item is a novel as well, so that's what I'm good at reviewing. Ask me if you want me to review long novels or even just a long piece of work, and I'd give you my criticisms, my subjective perspective of the characters, my take on the story, and the strengths of your writing. I'd also take the time and read the subsequent chapters if I like it, so don't be afraid to ask me for a follow-up review!
Honestly, if you bothered to request me for a review, I'd probably do it free of charge, but don't tell anyone...
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.
I tend to cut a wide swath through a review, covering all not only a general overview and characterizations, but also technical areas such as grammar and punctuation. I consider my style to be more in-depth with a good deal of time expenditure on each review. Hence, I tend to give out fewer reviews because of a busy personal schedule.
I offer critical reviews that are nevertheless constructive. I'll review anything, but poetry and short fiction are my strong suit.
My focus is on organization and structure, though I will likely comment on some line-level edits. Any piece of writing is primarily a piece of organized information, so before you can even get into aesthetics, you have to start with a solid foundation. Style will be the final, least accentuated part of my reviews. A well-executed piece gets 3.5 stars or above.
A piece that succeeds fully on its own terms, so to speak, earns 5 stars. You don't have to be Hemingway to write something that is perfect for what it is.
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'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.
It's important for writers to know what's working and what isn't, and as a reviewer, it helps to know if you have a specific concern as the writer.
I'm an English teacher, winner of my university's fiction contest, and received honorable mention in 2019's Popular Fiction contest by Writer's Digest.
My review will likely be specific but holistic, kind but honest. I'll let you know what truly grabs me or loses me.
During the school year I won't be able to review much, but definitely hit me up over the holiday season or the summer months (North America) or during this COVID mess.
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 have a form I use for reviews. I look for a Goal, Motivation, Conflict and Resolution. It also allows me to tell what I liked and what I thinks needs improving. In my reviews I may make suggestions by adding my take on what the author is trying to say. Purely a suggestion to take or leave as needed.
When reviewing other's work I tend to be straight forward and honest. I do not do sarcasm as it can be taken as being rude. I do not like horror stories.
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 look at the title, premise, overall structure first. Then I see how it makes me feel. After that, I might comment on little errors which are easily fixed.
I wish to give the review to short-stories or in poetry. I try to extract the facts of the particular literature. I want to give a review in a positive mind.
Honest and critical reviews offered. I look at all components of story-telling: setting, dialogue, characterization, conflict and resolution. I will not generally do a line-by-line edit, though I will point out minor errors. If a piece needs a complete rewrite for grammar and spelling I will tell you so. I do not sugar-coat. I try to be insightful and will offer honest suggestions where I think are necessary.
