I'll give a quick summary of your item. Afterwards, I'll talk about your characters, any Spelling or Grammar issues, and perhaps suggest some things, like adding the item to a Genre that it would fit into.
I'm good at...
Speed Reading/reviewing- 1000 word story won't even take me five minutes to read, and you'll get a review within 10 minutes of me reading it. As it is, my reviews are usually around 300 Characters- minus my Review Sig. However, sometimes they'll reach the 1,000 Character mark. Depends on the Story/item. *Bigsmile*
Favorite Genres
Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Animal
Least Favorite Genres
Can't think of any I don't like.
Favorite Item Types
I like them all.
Least Favorite Item Types
I've yet to not like any item types. Of course, images can be tricky- hard to correct Spelling and Grammar on those. *Bigsmile*
I will not review...
Interactives that don't have an actual story started - Give me some meat to eat there before you ask me to look at it, with at least one thread being at least 10 chapters long, and not just choices that aren't even developed, preferably written by your own hand. Books - well, not through a Review Request page anyways, as I'd would have to review the book itself and not the Chapter, in order to get paid, but I will review them if you ask me in an email. Anything that doesn't allow reviews. *Bigsmile*

This is a useful item as it shows the links to some of this group's newsletters, which depict various creatures from the realms of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror, and other things that go along with it. A very useful item for those checking the group out.

Originality
There are other places where groups' newsletters are linked to, but it's good to keep things organized.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any problems with spelling or grammar.

Well, this is the BIG BAD WOLF, and I howl at the moon every night.

This is a nice picture to show off the Non-Humans R Us group activity forum. It depicts a cat-like woman wielding a large paintbrush in a striking pose, as if attacking something. A very nice picture to use for the group.

Colors
All are done very nicely, with the shades of red, blue, and orange mixing. The cat creature is nicely done.

This is your entry to my contest, "Invalid Item.

You have a young person trying to run from something, with the help of another. However, they are getting tired, and feel like giving up. The other manages to get them into a car and orders the driver to get moving. They then see a figure in the headlights.

Characters
Interesting, though the main character could use some description- is the person a male or female?

Spelling and Grammar
You might want some space between paragraphs, and work on apostrophes.

This is an interesting story. A person finds themselves unable to move, surrounded by a bunch of metal poles, some of which are stained with the color of rust. They then see a bunch of knives, and someone holding onto one.

This is your entry to my contest, "Invalid Item.

You have a group of young men and women entering a cave. Afterwards, terrible things start to happen, with members of the group getting killed. Now the question is, who will die, and who will live to see the morning?

Characters
Some work is needed, better descriptions, and perhaps names.

Spelling and Grammar
You've got some work here, especially with punctuation. Also, is this a story, or a long-verse poem? I can't tell.

Suggestions
I see room for lots of improvement- I can't even tell you where to start. Using Microsoft Word might help out.

Review of A Matter of Taste

Rated: E | (4.5)
Well, this is an interesting story. On a distant planet, a dragon-like creature is observing a human colonist, who grows cows. One of the creature's friends show up and ask about the human. The creature tells his friend about the human's cows, saying that they taste better than human, and that he'd be able to replace any of the human's cattle with a clone. The creature also tells his friend that he has the human's DNA on file, and that he'd be able to make a clone of him for his friend to try.

This is an interesting item to look at. It happens to be a letter that you've sent to some publishers, in regards to you wanting to submit some stories/poems/articles to them. Sometimes this can be tricky, as there tends to be rejection from many publishers.

This is the first of five reviews you ordered from the "Invalid Item. Enjoy.

Well, this is an interesting story. An Indian is working in at a company in the Middle East, working on the last day before he gets transferred to a company in Germany. On this day, he learns some harsh truths, such as the fact that the person whom he thought was his friend was really his enemy. He also finds out that the woman he has a crush on also likes him. How does one live their life when they only have a day to do it?

Characters

Spelling and Grammar
You might want to work on the spacing for contractions and possessions, and also the past/present/future tense of words.

You might want to make a glossary for words that aren't found in the English language- might help things out.

This is your Second and Final review for donating some packages/Gift Points to my auction, "Save My Membership Auction - Closed. Enjoy

Well, this is an interesting poem. It's certainly hard work being a protester, especially a zombie protester (and that's without some ex-Motocross Champion trying to kill you- Dead Rising 2 reference). Trying to find brains takes a good deal of hard work. Thankfully, you can push someone else in front of you to take the damage.

Normally this would be worth 4.5*Star*s, but since this is in a special contest, you'll get 1*Star*. *Bigsmile*

Oh my god! A zombie Rambo! I don't know if I should laugh or scream at the thought, as I like watching many of Sylvester Stallone's movies (with the exception of the Rocky series- not a big fan of boxing.) Well, he'd certainly scare off the enemy.

You talk about a personal experience, when you and your family went out to get ice cream. On the way there, you begin to regret the idea- two teenagers and a child in the care are never quiet. Eventually, you get the ice cream, but it seems that more trouble shows up, in the form of your mother and your one daughter's boyfriend. Funny.

This is your entry to my contest, "Invalid Item, in which one has to tell a scary story based on a nightmare they had.

Let's see... You have a young woman running away from a crazy person, due to a little incident involving the other's driving. The crazy person chases the woman to her home and does terrible things to her and her family. This is most certainly scary.

Characters
Very interesting.

Spelling and Grammar
You might want to work on your contractions, and you have some spelling errors- one very prominent in the first paragraph.

Suggestions
You might want to remove the last paragraph that says the woman was killed and is now a ghost- an open ending would be more interesting- as it would make others wonder what happened.

Best of luck with the contest.

It talks about making sure that the Review and Rating correspond to each other.
