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

Can't think of any I don't like.
Favorite Item Types

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*

Review of Resolutions Kept  
In affiliation with Non-Humans R Us  
Rated: E | (4.5)
Well, this is an interesting short story. A elderly man makes a New Years resolution- Clean out the closet. While doing so, it seems like he's stepping back in time- finding a long lost golf club, an old bowling trophy, and finally, a cigar box containing his first resolutions. Nice.

Characters
This is the sort of person many want to be when they get older- being able to keep their promises, even those made for themselves.

Spelling and Grammar
For the final resolution, "Find" needs an "i" to be correct.

Well, this is an interesting poem. Written from the point of view of a woman whose husband puts her down, this poem addresses issues that deal with inequality between the sexes. This is something that people should think about, as it is quite common.

Well, this is a cute little story. A young girl has a hard time choosing what she wants to be when she grows up, from a puppy, to a policeman, to a teacher, to a swing, and a bunch of other things. Then she decides to be an "adult" but finds out that things are very boring.

Well, this is an interesting short story. While on the job, a barkeeper listens to one of his usual customer's problems. It seems that the man, a former rock star, was having some trouble with his family, as his wife left him, taking the kids. Makes one wonder.

Well, this looks like a fun little event. Buy some C-notes to send to your friends, group-mates, and maybe family members, and you'll be helping out a great group, ROAK, which spends its time giving out memberships to those who have trouble affording them. Given the fact that this group has helped me out on many occasions, I might just have to join in on the fun and help them for a change.

Review of Hiccup!

Rated: ASR | (4.5)
Well, this is an amusing story to read. When his wife gets the hiccups, a man does everything he can to cure his beloved of the dreaded curse, first using the traditional methods, glass of water, holding breath, scaring her, but none of it worked. Then, he comes up with an interesting idea, using a garden snake.

Characters
They make one smile.

Spelling and Grammar
In the beginning sentence, I think that, "I wrote this story...." would be a better start.

Well, this looks like an interesting introduction to your story. You talk about how there was once a war between humans and machines, but thanks to a massive effort, humans were able to destroy the machines. However, it seems that some of the machines survived. Makes me want to read the rest of the book, not to mention the series.

Well this is an interesting series of poems, which seem to about one person as he changes over a period of weeks, from a civilian into a member of the Navy. Sometimes, certain experiences will change you. Sometimes it's for the better, sometimes it's for the worse.

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

Suggestions
You might want to add the Category Military to this, as it reflects your experiences as you went through boot camp.

Well, this is an interesting story. A pirate captain is given a job to help some revolutionaries end the reign of a very powerful man. The price they are offering is a way for her to put an end to her immortality. However, it seems that the powers that be, which are led by the Pirate's own father, are not in the mood to step aside peacefully. I hope to see the rest of the story put up.

Interesting story. Read chapter one of this a while back, and decided to check out the rest. After talking to a few Colonists, the captian of a pirate ship talks to her crew about the job. However, one of her most trusted crew members has a big secret- he's a shifter, and he tells her some even darker ones, ones about the captain's father.

Characters
They are very interesting. I wonder what will happen.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any problems with the spelling or grammar, but you might want to make the size normal, as the small size makes things hard to read.

Well, this is an interesting story. In a world of Pokemon, a young boy and his family go for a vacation on the S.S. Anne. However, the ship runs into a storm. Unable to reach the lifeboats, the boy survives by shear luck when he falls overboard, and ends up on an improvised raft. The boy eventually makes it to an island, where he encounters a Lugia.

Characters
It's amazing what one can do to survive.

Well, this is an interesting little poem. It can be interesting when people imagine what Heaven will be like. Will it be a place full of angles and fluffy white clouds? Or will it be the sort of place that a wealthy person would live, but everyone can live there. Of course, I'm not in a hurry to find out. *Bigsmile*

Well, this is something to think about. A young woman, feeling herself all grown up, moves out, and leaves her family. Some time later, she comes back, and finds out that she missed out on a lot, like seeing her brothers grow up and become husbands, and her little sister become a woman herself. Makes one think.

Well, this is a story that most anyone can relate to; decorating the Christmas tree with the ornaments that have been passed down for years, and telling stories that one remembers because of them, like how Uncle Fred bent the halo on the angel because the tree was too tall. Ah, plenty of good times.

Well, this is a nice poem to locate. Due to certain personal reasons, this writer was unable to afford their membership. However, thanks to the efforts of a certain group, they were able to hold on until they could. This is a situation I can relate to, as I was in the poorhouse for a long time, but thanks to friends and the Angles that are out there, I kept afloat, as have may others. A very touching tribute to those people out there who help others.
