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 Review you Requested. Enjoy.

Well, you have the start of what looks to be an interesting story. You have a dragon born with a serious handicap - the inability to breath fire. However, it seems that this dragon comes from an important family. There is also another dragon, who lacks a father, who could teach him how to fight.

Characters
I would like some more in description.

Spelling and Grammar
Quotation needed in the first paragraph.

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

This is a poll, a long time user's first poll. It's funny making something for the first time - sure you've participated in them, but that doesn't mean you understand them.

Well, I have, as of now, eight polls in my portfolio - some are active, some are not, and one is closed. Always interesting to see them.

Originality
Never seen a poll like this. *Laugh*

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

Review of Slugger  
In affiliation with Sisco's Good Deed Group  
Rated: 18+ | (4.0)
This is a Review you Requested me to do. Enjoy.

Let's see here. You have a young - wait, she's not even a woman - girl, who holds special importance to a young mob boss. It seems that she was captured and is being used as bait to get to her boyfriend. Rather interesting.

Characters
You have some interesting characters, though they could be better described.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any problems with Spelling or Grammar, but I'd place some space between the paragraphs, to make reading easier.

Suggestions
I'd increase the Rating on this story to 18+, maybe even GC, due to violence and swearing, and said swearing includes a few uses of a big swear word around here - the kind that if used twice in a story of about 2,000 words would generally get it bumped to GC - substitute said swear word and you might be fine with 18+, although some might say otherwise anyways.

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

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy

Well, this is an interesting story. You talk about a family who has just got themselves a new house. However, it seems that this house has a very interesting, and sometimes scary, history. Makes one wonder about the secrets of their own home, and what all it has seen.

Characters
The characters are interesting.

Spelling and Grammar
You have a number of line spaces that aren't needed, as it makes things tricky to tell if something is, or isn't a different paragraph.

This is an interesting poll. It asks people the question about if writing in multiple genres is a Good thing, or a Bad thing. To be honest, I find this to be a good thing. If you can show that you are talented across multiple genres, it's a way of showcasing your ability and skills, and you're not stuck in only one section. Of course, sometimes one writes similar things in different genres, but the trick is knowing how to twist things right.

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

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy.

First question comes to mind - Is this about your life? If it is, you might want to list this item as Non-Fiction.

You have a story about a woman who, along with her dog, lives in a cabin in the Wilderness. One day, they have an encounter with a rogue bear, and the dog is forced to fight to protect his owner. Talk about being Man's Best Friend.

Characters
You could better describe the characters. I mean, what does the dog look like?

Spelling and Grammar
I could be wrong, but I think that snowmobile is one word.

This is your entry to my contest, "Invalid Item. I hope you enjoy the review, which is also my 2,300th one! *Laugh*

Well, this is definitely a spooky story. A man, who is trying to sleep, gets the strange sensation that someone is in his home. When he opens his eyes, he ends up seeing someone, who isn't quite a man, over in a corner, as if waiting for him.

Characters
Very interesting.

Well, this is an interesting contest. Create a story that has a Steampunk theme, and using the prompts to be utilized, you could get some very nice prizes, including the very nice Stempunk Merit Badge, which is nice to have if you like to write, or at least support, such things.

Originality
It's always nice to have a contest that deals with a favorite topic.

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

Best of luck with your contest.

This is a fun group to check out. It's dedicated to that subgenre of Science Fiction known as Steampunk, where everything runs on steam, or looks like it was invented in the 19th century, instead of the 20th/21st centuries. Makes one want to do some thinking.

Originality
I haven't seen any other groups deal in this type of story-making around here.

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

Best of luck with the group.

This is an interesting story. A woman finds out that her neighbor was the victim of a Halloween prank, involving a bunch of eggs. However, as she tries to help the guy, he begins to act very strange, especially when the garbage is mentioned, and makes a terrifying discovery.

Characters
The characters could use some description.

Spelling and Grammar
There's a couple of sections that could use some touch-ups. One sentence is missing the quotation marks.

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy.

Well, this is an interesting beginning to what seems to be a good story. You have a teacher of magic arriving at the school, as a new branch was created for him. However, he gets a letter, that is very strange, and his fellow teachers are strange indeed. I hope to read more.

Characters
Some description would be useful.

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

Suggestions
You might want to add this to the Genres Action/Adventure and perhaps Sci-Fi or Mythology.

This was a Review that you Requested. Enjoy

Well, this is an interesting story. You've got a young man who has made a lot of money, but it seems to do so, he made a deal with the Devil, and sold his soul to them. The young man tries to get it back, and thinks he has found a way. Very interesting.

Characters
A little bit of description would help - I mean, what do they look like?

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any problems with spelling or grammar, but you might want to work on spacing for paragraphs.

This is your Review for your participation in "Save My Membership Auction - Closed. Enjoy.

Well, this is very nice to know - a link to the NaNoWriMo website, which a good number of people disappear to during the month of November, when they are challenged to write a Novel containing fifty - thousand words or more. I thought about doing it once, but I've long lost that fire, and I deal with shorter things these days, mostly. That being said, it's nice to find a link to the site.

Spelling and Grammar
No problems with spelling or grammar.

Suggestions
You might want to put this under Computers, Community, and How-to/Advice in terms of Genres. Also, given that this is basically just a link to a site, you might want to make this under Review Only or Item Doesn't Accept Reviews. Just my opinion of course.

This is your Review for your participation in "Save My Membership Auction - Closed. Enjoy.

Well, this is a nice item to read. it seems to be a brief intro to the site, perhaps even a bit of an advertisement. Basically, you seem to be trying to attract people to the site, and perhaps join.

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

Suggestions
You might want to discuss the features of the site - you mentioned writing and reviewing, but you don't talk about it. You might want to give out more of a description, like saying that one can write about anything, from silly little kid things, all the way up to hard-core adult things. Just an idea.

This is your review for your participation in "Save My Membership Auction - Closed. I hope that you enjoy it.

Well, this is an interesting poem. It seems to be from the point of view of a female werewolf, who seems to enjoy being in her wolf form, as it frees here from the various constraints imposed upon her when she is in her human form. Very interesting.

Opinion
Very interesting - I haven't seen many poems from a werewolf's point of view.

In affiliation with Sisco's Good Deed Group

This is a nice page in Writing 101 to look at. It explains how to read the Statistics on a person's Items. By looking at this, people can understand what groups of people are reading their items, Male or Female, along with other classifications, so that they can tweak the item to get the desired audience.

Well, this is an interesting story. A young woman, who is contemplating committing suicide, walks in on an armed robbery, and for the first time in her life, ends up being very important.

This looks like the start of an interesting story. Shortly after a party with friends, a woman heads for home. However, it seems that someone didn't want her to make it home. I wonder why.

Review of Ebony and Ivory  
In affiliation with Sisco's Good Deed Group  
Rated: E | (4.5)
This is your first of five reviews won from "Invalid Item. Enjoy.

You have created what looks to be the start of an interesting Fantasy/Sci-Fi story. You have created a world that is half covered in Light, and half covered in Dark, and those who are from one side can't live on the other, except for the boundary between the sides, known as the Gray. This is where the Royal family lives, as the King is from the Dark side, and the Queen is from the Light. One day, one of their children goes missing, and they must find them. Looks good so far.

Characters
So far, your characters look interesting. Of course, I wouldn't mind knowing a little bit about the armors the soldiers wear - do those from the Dark wear Black, with those from the Light wearing White, or some such thing? *Bigsmile*

Spelling and Grammar
In the ninth paragraph from the bottom, you have part of the sentence connected to the next one. A space there might help. *Bigsmile*

Well, this is an interesting story. You have three young people out hiking in the woods, in honor of a late friend, when strange things begin to happen, like with the three of them getting lost, and then seeing things. Very scary.

Characters
The characters are very interesting, though a little bit of description would be useful.

You might want to have space between the paragraphs, as this would make things easier for readers, as well as to point out possible errors- there's one in here but I can't locate it.

This is a Review Request.

Well, this looks like the start of a very interesting story. You have an Inspired-Writer-To-Be trying to research material for a book, specifically the part of a chef, but it seems that most of the locals don't want to hire out their chefs for research. However, fate has a funny sense of humor when he gets a job at a restaurant, only to find an alien from outer space at the place.

The three characters are interesting, but they could use some description- like hair color and such.

Well, this is an interesting story. You have a young woman, who seems to have the unique ability to teleport herself to another location. However, it seems that this ability comes with a price, as the local police/military forces are hunting for her, because of her ability.

Well, this is a nice little item to find. It tells what the site's doing for its birthday, and who all's celebrating. It's always good to get into the spirit of things, because it's at this time of year that practically everyone, who can, is hosting contests, auctions, raffles, and just plainly giving out Gifts of Gift Points, Awardicons, Merit Badges, perhaps some Memberships, and a whole host of other things. One has to love this time of year, especially on this site.
