Well, I suppose statics. I like crosswords, but those don't particularly need reviews. I read more short stories than poems.

Uh, I probably won't read a script, because I would prefer to see them acted out.

Review of Perspectives  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
What a nice, sweet, simple poem about thankfulness. This reminds me of the comedy movie Deck the Halls. Probably because there's this guy who's like obsessed with Christmas, and his favorite Christmas memory was when he and his grandpa were snowed in for Christmas and ate french fries and chocolate milk on the kitchen floor. So, in other words, I like it. Great Job and Write On!

Review of Trouble Brewing

Funny! I like the rhyme scheme. The story about a clumsy witch is amusing. The thought of tongue of bat just kind of makes me shiver. I think it's really gross. All witches seem to have cats. Why can't one just have a dog? Just a thought. Great Job and Write On!

Nice short story! You fill people with compassion for Haru. The bonsai must have been really old. You emphasize the suddenness of the earthquake and tsunami. If I had not accidentally scrolled down and as I was scrolling back up and read the red writing first, I would have not known what was going to happen. Great Job and Write On!

Ha! That's funny. I'd probably be a Brittney. I"d be like "what's wrong with you," and "you're supposed to be a teacher," and "this isn't funny." I'm slightly OCD about a few things, and incorrect history is one of them. Especially Egypt. That's when I get a little snappy. Like when someone mispronounced Sphinx... Great Job and Write On!

Review of The Artist  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
Nice! Writers (especially me) will get that flash of inspiration as well. I write it down as fast as possible, and then I may not write anything on that story for a few weeks. Were those few words bolded because this was a contest entry? Great Job and Write On!

Haha! This takes a funny image (the fat man on the bike) and puts it from his point of view. But, honestly, how many people ride bikes in the winter? He should've least waited till summer, when it was warm and there was no ice or anything for him to slip on. Great job and Write On!

Summer goes too fast. I agree. I"m not much of a golfer, but my dad, uncles, and grandfather all love it. It's like their ultimate bonding thing. Me, I just like to be sitting at a computer writing or sitting on a couch reading. Great Job and Write On!

Review of To a Pessimist  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
You always have to look on the bright side of life right? This is a nice poem with a hopeful ending. Nothing smells worse than burnt anything. Well except burnt candles... maybe. I particular like the ABCB rhyme form. It's used by one of my favorite authors, and I'm always happy to see it used. Great Job and Write On!

Review of Bottom  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
Nice! That's the one thing to focus on when you're stuck in a low place: There's nowhere to go but up. This nice, simple form is really neat. I like the way it sort of forms an arrow going up. The font and color look nice too. Great job and Write On!

Review of Up Down  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (4.5)
Interesting. Are you bipolar? Or are you related to someone who is? I don't mean to offend you in any way about that, just so you know. The switching sides is a little disorienting, but I think that's kind of the point. We though my cousin was bipolar when he was younger, but then he grew out of whatever seemed to be making him act bipolar. Great Job and Write On!

Review of Hungry Dreams  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
Oh, wow. This is about dreams, right? My dreams are... interesting... to say the least. But I often say "Please, let me go back to sleep." Man, I hate waking up in the morning. But we all have to, right? I like the poem. It's a really, really nice way to describe dreams. Way to go and Write On!

Review of Uninvited  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Funny story about trying to get into a party you're uninvited too! The rhymes are nice and clever. This must be a really rich person, if they have a security staff for their party. I like this poem and hope no one ever has to actually go through it. All-in-all Great Job and Write On!

Review of GREED  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: ASR | (5.0)
Great poem about greed! Greed is a hard thing that everyone deals with, I think. But we all need to overcome that. Everyone must either succumb to greed and let it take over their thoughts and actions, or defeat it and continue on with life. In the end, all greed will turn into a net, like you have said. Everyone will be caught in their own greed. Great job and Write On!

Nice sweet story. So someone's love was dying and they wanted to live until sunset, and they did? Just clarifying. Nice idea. Who says men don't cry? I think good men also have emotional sides. Well, peu importe (French for no matter.) Great job and Write On!

Nice poem about freedom and what the US stands for. US citizens are so lucky to have the freedom and privileges other countries don't. You did a great job in showing this through the eyes of an immigrant, or someone like that. Great job and Write On!

Review of Big Tex  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (4.0)
Interesting poem. Is it like a ballad? I gathered this from the repeated verses. So this guy, Tex, dies, and you think he's coming back bigger and better? Maybe you should elaborate on that a little bit more. It would be a great thing for readers to understand, maybe add a third verse? This will be a great poem/ballad with a little editing. Write On!

Nice poem. Did it actually happen? You, just, suddenly go over the edge of a mountain and drive your car into the ocean? You portray it in a humorous light, but I think it would be a little more scary than that. I like this poem, I'm sure finding enough rhymes was difficult. Great job and Write On!

Review of Twist of Fate  
Review by CJ Reddick
Rated: E | (5.0)
This is a good poem. The A-B-C-B rhyme scheme happens to be my favorite. I just want to make sure I understand this. She was cheating on her boyfriend and then they both found out and both dumped her, right? Your rhythm works well in this poem. You did a great job. Write On!

This is a great story about the wonderful caringness of a boyfriend to her girlfriend's family. Great job! One grammar mistake, I think. Where it says "It can't be, Tom for sure." I think it's supposed to be "It can't be Tom, for sure." Possibly, I think either could work under the circumstance. But the other one makes more sense to me. Just my thought. Anyways, great job and Write On!
