Dear Maryann - House Martell ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these:The emphasis on the different colors that life brings. Whether true life, or from a fairytale. I can see the scenery in my mind's eye.

My Favorite Part(s)I like the color you use in your writing. I looked up what a Mononet style poem was, and you hit it spot on in my opinion.

Suggestions/Questions:The only thing I might change is the size of the font. With the color, it makes this size just a little blurry to my eyes. Otherwise, a wonderful poem.

Dear Maryann - House Martell ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these:I love the spooky season, so the title caught my eye.

My Favorite Part(s)I like the "double acrostic" style of your writing. (I now know what this style is called). Thank you for sharing this. It is an apt decription of what Halloween means, in all of its ghoulish glory.

Suggestions/Questions:I also love the glowing kitty cat signature. It is very cool. Do you create these? If so, I wonder if I might get a similar one for the spooky season coming this fall. (I'd be happy to give gps, of course).

Dear Maryann - House Martell ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: I can see that by your writing, it would be better to give you chocolate, rather than roses...LOL Do you like milk, white, or dark chocolate? Plain or with nuts or fruits?

My Favorite Part(s) You went out of your way to show your "boo-boo". It was fun to read.

Final Thoughts/Questions:I gave it a "1 *Star* rating, because I was following directions at the bottom of the poem. However, for the funniness, I give it a "5"!
Thank you for sharing this, even after 20 years, it makes for good reading.

Dear Maryann - House Martell ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these:The acrostic is an apt description of WdC.

My Favorite Part(s)I like the decorations and the brightness of your writing. I also like the way the acrostic starts and ends with the same letters; very inventive.

Final Thoughts/Questions:Have you enjoyed the 21 years here? Were there any challenges that made it difficult? If so, you've worked them through, it seems. Thank you again.

Dear Maryann - House Martell ,

I just wanted to wish you a wonderful 21st Anniversary this month. Does that mean you get to go to Andre's Bar now? LOL.

After reading your work, My impressions are these:A simple, yet cool game. It's one that anyone can get involved in.

My Favorite Part(s)Some of the posts are just hilarious. Imagination does run rampant here at WdC. I also love the signage that you use. It's big bright and catches the eye.

Final thoughts/Questions:Thank you so much for letting me peruse your portfolio for reviews this month. You are an inspiration.

Hello Jay O'Toole

My First Impression:A wonderful reminder of what this week means in the heart of a Christian.

My Favorite Part: The hope given through the empty tomb, that we might have life, and that more abundantly.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: No suggestions. But I love the way you've given the writing an easily readable font. I am grateful for Christ's love and the encouragement of my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Blessings to you and yours.

Hello Tinker

My First Impression: Vivid description of a thunder-storm with lots of rain. I could picture it in my mind's eyes as I've seen this kind of storm many times (I lived in Louisiana, not far from New Orleans).

My Favorite Part: The end of each verse was "An atmospheric river flows" reiterating what the poem was about.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts:I saw that you wrote this for a contest, and I wish you well in it. I saw no grammar or mechanical issues with your writing.

Hello Princess Megan Rose GOT Fox

My First Impression: Wow!! I have always admired your signatures when you give reviews. I absolutely love your awardicons and the trinkets are most wonderful.

My Favorite Part:I love all of these...the dragons, the princesses, the animals. You have such a sweet soul, and your imagination is inspiring.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: I look forward to seeing more of your sigs and trinkets in the future. I just love this site. Thank you so much for sharing!

Review of Learning to Swim

*CakeB* HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews*CakeP*


Dear Bikerider ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these:Wow...I liked the way you told the story. I got a chuckle in some places, and could relate in others.

My Favorite Part(s)Also the scariest, swimming out into open water scares the bejesus out of me. I also had that feeling of helplessness, and it is very nearly my experience that I read. It is swimming pools for me only.

Suggestions/Questions:I wonder how you did with the contest. It's been a dozen years since you've written this. Do you do any swimming, or did you find other ways to ramp up your exercise routine? I'm very much waiting on a clearance from my heart doctor so that I can get back to the gym.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Hello JCosmos

My First Impression:Yikes! This is such a bleak writing. I cannot even imagine the horrors that are described in your prose.

My Favorite Part:I like the font for the ease of reading. It makes your writing stand out.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: Is this your idea of what is going on in the Ukraine, or is this actual knowledge? I cannot think of a more senseless action - it isn't so much a war as it is a rape of a country. *Cry*

Hello Prosperous Snow celebrating

My First Impression: A bit sci-fi and a bit happening right now! A well blended story. I feel a bit sorry for Marge, as she seems a little "lost".

My Favorite Part: The part being a daylight savings nightmare, made me chuckle. I sincerely hope that daylight savings isn't linked to dementia...We could certainly do away with it, I'm sure.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: Good luck with the contest; I hope your story does well. Not bad for under 500 words *BigSmile*

Dear Paul D ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: Wow! What an engaging thriller. I couldn't stop reading it.

My Favorite Part(s) I like how you wrote it in the first person voice. The sequencing of the timeline and characters is amazing.

Suggestions/Questions: Of course, I wanted it to go further. I would like to know how Sally had turned, only have been bitten twice. Was there another vampire unknown? Was she a "deviant"? A lot of questions. Very, very cool.

Dear Paul D ,

Just nosing around your portfolio today for Anniversary Reviews. Wanted to wish you a Happy WdC Anniversary for this Friday. Ten years! Awesome.

After reading your work, My impressions are these: This story is definitely a twist on what I was thinking would be a "murder/mystery" story. I like the way it just jumps out at you at the end of the story.

My Favorite Part(s)I like the "There's weird, and there's weird" dialogue between Maura and Sylvester. They start out polite, if not cautious, and then they become "partners in crime". Cool beans!

I like the collab element that you have going on here. It makes for an interesting style of writing.

Final Thoughts: I was glad to have read this story. I write mostly poems, but this is a really cool sci/fi work. It makes me wish that there was more of this story to read.

Dear Chris Breva ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: You have done a lot of contest entries - and the contests are eclectic - there seems to be no contest you won't try *BigSmile*

My Favorite Part(s)Your tale had me riveted, wondering what would happen next. I could picture the scenes, both at the church and out in the field where the shepherds were with the sheep. An exciting story for sure. And just like that...the boy was gone. Very cool!

Suggestions/Questions:Did you follow a prompt for this contest? I know it has been quite a while since you wrote this, but I am very glad that you did. Thanks so much for sharing!

Dear Chris Breva ,

I am having a good time nosing about your port today. Thank you for giving the privilege of sharing your works.

After reading your work, My impressions are these:This is an awesome idea: Having an auction to honor your birthday, with great packages. The proceeds going to different groups within WdC. Very nifty idea. *Inspiration, perhaps?*

My Favorite Part(s) The sharing of the gps with other groups. This is an awesome thing. I see others do this as well. But it is cool that you shared this in reference to your birthday *CupcakeY*

Suggestions/Questions:It has been quite a while ago, but I was wondering about? how good the auction went. I saw that you had several donors that helped out. Again, cool beans *BigSmile*

Dear Chris Breva ,

After reading this work, My impressions are these: I am so very glad that things worked out for the little girl. Your careful watching saved her life for sure. Even though this was written 5 years ago, Cell phones have become even more of a problem than ever before.

My Favorite Part(s)While I salute your modesty in accepting the award, I too, feel as though you deserved it. My feelings are that the mother should have been scolded as well, but that is a thought for another day.

Suggestions/Questions: I know that it has been a while since you've written this, but I did catch one little misspell:

I covered the one hundred yards between the child and I as fatfast as my legs would carry me and dove into the water fully clothed to extract the baby.
Otherwise, spot on! LOL...sorry if I seem like a "grammar fanatic" *Blush*

Dear Chris Breva ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: This is the shortest entry that I have read. It was written in 2018 for the Writer's Cramp.

My Favorite Part(s) You were very deliberate in describing your job. You were following a certain path to get where you were going.

Suggestions/Questions: It is five years later, and I am wondering where you are at in regards to your dream job. Just being nosy, here.

Dear Chris Breva ,

After reading this work, My impressions are these: I enjoyed reading your entry for the 4 C's contest. (Congrats on the win, by the way back 4 yrs ago on this piece.)

My Favorite Part(s)That you took the topic of faith and made it personal - alive and working in your life as you went about school and work. I like how you give credit to God for the work, but were not afraid to step out and put "the shovel to the mountain" or "wings" on your prayers. I also like the reference to James 2:19 about faith w/o works being dead. A good reminder! Thank you for your example of "stepping out".

Dear Chris Breva ,

I'm nosing around your port today for the Anniversary Reviews. Just wanted to wish you a Happy WdC Anniversary, and to let you know that I am a huge fan of the Take Up Your Cross forum here. I started with your bio - and goodness! You are someone who enjoys learning, and seem to be very busy person. Kudos to you, Sir! I thank you for allowing your work to be read, and I am looking forward to reading your several selections

After reading this work, My impressions are these: I love poetry, and I really like acrostic style poetry. You have definitely hit the nail on the head with this one. Even though it was written in 2017, it is timeless in its meaning. I think everyone can relate to this.

My Favorite Part(s) I have difficulty making acrostics that rhyme, so I was extra delighted to see that you did. Your poem is bouncy, and fun to read.

Suggestions/Questions:I saw no mechanical or grammar issues. I am very glad that I am able to check out your writing.

Review of Consumed

Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello DestinyAwaitsDarling

My First Impression: This poem hits very close to home. I can relate on several levels with what you've written.

My Favorite Part: The raw emotion of it; like you aren't afraid to admit this to yourself or to others. The vulnerability of what you've written.

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: I have no suggestions for this poem. It is honest and real. The final phrase, it is eating me alive...That about sums it up. I don't know if anyone else understands, but I can relate. The first line on feeling disposable. I get it. I wonder why sometimes that God allowed me to live. Wouldn't have been easier to just get to go home and not be pained anymore? Oh hon. I hear you. I hear me, and I'm sure there are others who feel this way too. But it does feel like we are alone, eh?

Please keep writing and sharing...I hear you.

Dear Bikerider ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: Such a sad story! How terrible to have been torn from her family and sent away. I imagine that it was a horrible time, but where was the compassion?

My Favorite Part(s) The detail that you put into your story is riveting. I could see the scenery in my mind's eye and watched helplessly as your story unfolded.

Suggestions/Questions: I see that you wrote this a while ago (2012). It is an amazing story you've written, even though the subject is very sad. Was her grave ever found? Thanks so much for sharing this.

Dear Bikerider ,

After reading your work, My impressions are these: A heart-wrenching tale; full of hope and sadness.

My Favorite Part(s) The dialogue between them is spot on. I am rooting for him to make it back, for her to remain faithful, and to know they have their happily ever after. I picture this in my mind as taking place at the start of WWII, but I'm sure that it could be set in just about any time frame.

Suggestions/Questions:I know that you wrote this a while ago (2012), and I wondered how you did in the contest. Cool prompt as well.

Hello Jim,

I'm sending this review for the 23 in 11 challenge.

My First Impression:Not the story I thought it might be. The twist at the end startled me to say the least.

My Favorite Part: How his Julie would not give up on him, no matter the horrors that he had seen. The last line was so very sad, "for who has seen a pair of ghosts?"

My Suggestions/Final Thoughts: A very sad tale, no matter what war, or conflict. I am sure that there are a number of stories that could identify with this story. I felt it in my heart. Thank you for sharing. I hope it does well in the contest.

This review is in conjunction with 23 in 11 Writing Challenge.

My First Impression: Wow...I was drawn in immediately. I could picture the scene clearly in my head. It's funny, but I could picture Peter Dinklage from the movie Elf...*FacePalm*


My Favorite Part: The sense of humor from the interviewee. "Oh, I'm definitely going to need a step stool for that." Cracked me up.
