Reviewing Your Peers.

You have an ethical responsibility to prepare a well balanced, helpful review of both strengths and weaknesses of the story.

Whata WackyBrew Author IconMail Icon's definition of ethical says it all.

“Ethical = An ethical person refuses to go along because it violates honesty. ... Honesty is a moral characteristic, a virtue, and sometimes considered to equate with truthfulness yet there are differences. Honesty means you say what you sincerely believe to be true”.
