Review of Dragon adoring  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (5.0)
Dear SeverinR,

What a delightful story!
Dragon adoring - Young elf looks closely at her beloved dragonets body as she sleeps after a hectic day is cute, full of love and colors and I wanted more. You're going to write more, aren't you? I want more, I want the novel written. You asked these questions:
Dragon adoring: This is a relaxing scene after several hectic events that kept her moving quickly. The scene is just a part of a much bigger novel. I am seeking review on the description of the hatchling dragon, is it too much? is it too boring? not descriptive enough?"
No... it was too little. I wanted to read more about Eildetha.
Not at all boring. It was sweet and relaxing.
It was descriptive but not enough... as I wanted more... descriptions. I also wanted and want to know why was Melima careful not to touch - again - the end of the dragon's snout as she had made that mistake before. What happened?
Wow... lovely story.
Write on!

Review of Lost Souls  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (4.5)
Dear Bookfan,

Again, I enjoyed reading another short story of yours: Lost Souls - Short Story I wrote in highschool. May not be the original. Inpsired by a real place.

I was really curious to know what would happen to Steve in his new job but never expected the ending. It was a good ending and it surprised me. Great story, Bookfan. If you read my review on your short story Grave Robber, again, I must ask you to make this one a bit longer too - you see, I wanted to read more of your story. I needed to "see" their faces, "feel" their thoughts. Maybe I wanted to be more scared than I already was. You write so well so I'm sure you'll certainly figure this out. Well done, great job.
Could you see if these corrections are needed?
"Steve moved into town to get away from a tragic life he had in Oregon and wanted to start a-knew." Shouldn't it be start anew?
"Finally a store clerk told him where he can be found and gave him the address." Shouldn't it be... could be found?
" He asked the family where he can find Jack the person who lived here." Shouldn't it be... he could find Jack?

I am happy you asked me to read your stories! I had a great time and enjoyed them a lot! Write on!

Review of Grave Robber  
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Dear Bookfan,

I really enjoyed your short story: Grave Robber - A grave robber get more then what he was bargaining for.
Your style is clear, easy to follow, you captivate the reader and made me curious until the end. Yet, I wanted more - descriptions, details, characters thoughts, noises, fears and much more. I wanted... more, get it? More. Once a WDC author told me something that I never forgot: "Show... don't tell." I hope my suggestion helps you - it sure helped me and probably this sentence made me earn m 1st. place in the Twisted Tales Contest this month.
Could you make your great story - longer? I must tell you - I liked your story - this is why I am asking you to do this if you think you want to, OK? Also, I think you must correct the following things:
"A grave robber get more then what he was bargaining for." Shouldn't it be: ...robber gets more?
"He ran from her as fast as he can." Shouldn't it be: ... as far as he could?
"Something got around he throat." Shouldn't it be: ... the throat or his throat?
By making these corrections and adding more visual images and maybe his deeper, darker thoughts (while digging the graves) would make your story even better than it already is!
Congratulations on your story!

Likes: Wow, I must say that your poem was powerful. I read it more than twice - I wanted to grasp the idea and understand your deep meaning. Good writring... and your rhymes and stanzas were intriguing but well done.

My favorite part:

"Until the door opened.

Draining her from the inside
Making her sweat and sore,
Pulling out her hair,
With something crawling in her stomach,
She was left waiting for death.

They were submerged."

Dislikes: There was nothing I disliked but I sincerely ask you to please capitilize all the first letters of each line as I did with the title and my favorite part above. Just a thought.

Likes: The title of the poem caught my eye while going over your work in your Port. Maybe I am feeling an absence of time... somewhere inside me and while I read I could feel your words flow in my heat as if I understood you or... you understood me. It was a surreal experience. I loved the soft words you used: peace, float, serenity, inevitability, tomorrows... so nice, Pat.

My review, thoughts and opinion are only to help you - be sure that I am learning from you, from your style, your creativity and from your passion for writing.
Likes: I really enjoyed reading your short story and you kept me going, curious, eager to know what was going to happen and then... surprise! I loved it! I liked it when you wrote this:" Unfortunately, the dry wheat stalks were not kind to the boy, and one snapped as he moved over it." Nice, I could ... hear it! Then, this: "For the last time,” the man replied, “You’re taking a bath whether you like it or not! Why do you always have to make it so difficult?
The man’s son eventually gave up the fight and resigned to his fate."
And finally this part: "The man may have won this round... but tomorrow night would be another story."
Dislikes: Nothing disliked me at all.
Please correct/notice: Nothing is to be corrected - it is well written, interesting and funny.
I liked it that your "horror/scary" story had exactly 666 words!
I am sending this review because I really liked your work. Well done. I hope to read more of your work again.
With admiration, much love,
