Review by Detective
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed your poem very much. Despite being short, your poem was vivid and descriptive. It shows how much can be done with a few words and in only a few lines. It also gave me a new poetry form to look up and try out for myself. This is very well done.

Review of Always  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (4.0)
I enjoyed this poem very much. The poem was well-written and enjoyable. The rhyme scheme was well-done and consistent. Keeping your feet one the ground is both a good philosophy and good advice. Giving people the benefit of the doubt is also good advice.

Review of Poetry  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (4.5)
A poem about poetry is an interesting take. Though this poem is short, it does express that are many forms of poetry, each with their own distinct line counts, rhyme schemes and beats. Personally, I've never heard of two of the forms you mentioned. I'll have to check them out.

Review of The Hearing  
Review by Detective
Rated: ASR | (4.0)
I enjoyed your poem very much. It captures the stress and worry that comes with facing a court decision, especially when the decision can change one's life drastically, particularly for the worse. Your poem does well in creating tension for the readers, especially for anyone who remembers this scene from Harry Potter.

Review of The Eyes of Death  
Review by Detective
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
I enjoyed this little story very much. I particularly enjoyed the twist at the end of the story. It wasn't the ending I was expecting when I started reading the story. Though it's not a particularly long story, it was still an interesting read. It could be a little longer. I'd like to know more details about the characters, both the main character and the two others mention. It's still a very good story.

Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed this poem. There is a distinct difference between being alone and being lonely. Your poem express that distinction well, in addition to expressing the enjoyment that comes with being by oneself. I also enjoyed the use of different length stanzas. It helped to express the emotions used in the poem well.

Review of The Death Machine  
Review by Detective
Rated: 18+ | (5.0)
I enjoyed this short story very much. It was well written and engaging. I liked General Havoc very much. I would enjoy seeing more of him and seeing what he does next.Even though this was written for a contest, I'd enjoy reading a longer version of this story with added details and expanded world building.

I enjoyed this poem very much. It's certainly a different perspective on Alice and Wonderland. I like that you drew inspiration from the books themselves.

Review of Colorado Springs  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed this poem very much. I like the descriptions you used. It certainly painted a picture in my head of what the poem's talking about. The rhyming was well done and thought out. I also got a sense of how much you'd like to visit Colorado Springs.

Review of Bright Sunbeams  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed this poem very much. It's well written and descriptive. The rhyme scheme is well done. I like how in the first stanza you rhymed dune and moon. They're words that rhyme without being spelled similarly. People often don't think of those particular words when they're trying to rhyme. Good job.

Review of Form  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed this poem very much. It's thought-provoking to try and figure out what's being described in the poem. My guess is that the poem is describing the ocean as it breaks upon either a beach or below a cliff.

Review of Tracking Dirt  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (4.0)
I enjoyed this poem very much. It's rather spooky .which I like. The little animation of the steps is a nice touch that I enjoyed. It added to the spookiness of the poem. I'm a little confused by the lines having different colors. It's still a very good poem.

Review of Irish Folk Song  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (5.0)
I enjoyed this little folk song. Being of Irish descent myself, this appeals to my sense of Irishness. It's well-written and I could easily picture things in my head. It works very well as both a song and poem. I would very much enjoy listening to this set to music.

I enjoyed this story very much. Writing a short story in only a certain amount of words in a certain time frame can be difficult but you did a really good job. There characters were both interesting and lifelike. I know this was written for a contest but I'd like to read more about these characters.

Rated: E | (4.5)
I enjoyed this poem very much. It brings the warmth of Thanksgiving to life well and in only a few stanzas. It also used a form of poetry that I'd never heard of before. It almost reminds me of a Haiku, though this form is longer and the syllable counts are different. I got to enjoy a new poem and I've got a new poem form to try out.

I enjoyed this short piece very much. It's well written, descriptive piece of writing. Though I'm not sure if it was your intention,is also a bit of humor in this piece as , until the last line, the piece could be about almost anything. That might just be me though. I still enjoyed it.

Rated: E | (3.0)
This was an interesting take on hunting from one hunter's perspective. I enjoyed this story very much. I did notice ,however, that you didn't capitalize the first letter in any of the sentences. This was the only thing I noticed that could be fixed.

I enjoyed this poem very much. It was a beautifully written poem about a watching the birds as winter comes. I'm glad you included the author's note at the bottom about the Junco. It's a type of sparrow that I've never heard of and I was glad to have learned something.

Review of Short story  
Review by Detective
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
The story certainly took an unexpected turn at the end of the story. I wasn't expecting the main character to be a vampire. I did enjoy reading the story very much. I'd like to see a longer version of this with more story and detail. I like the fact that the main character has a deal with what seems to be the local undertaker. That's definitely an interesting facet to the story.

I enjoyed this story very much. It was an interesting take on the wild west gunslinger. I enjoyed the character very much, particularly the gunslinger himself. I think this would work as a longer story, with some added detail. I still thoroughly enjoyed it and I'd enjoy seeing more stories about these characters and the town of Purgatory.

Review of Falling in love..  
Review by Detective
Rated: E | (4.0)
This is a sweet little story and I enjoyed it. It talks about falling in love in a way that doesn't always happen in real life. I did notice a few little mistakes. In the first paragraph, the word "realized" should be "realize". In the first, second, third and fourth paragraphs , there are several first person "I"s that aren't capitalized when they should be. In the fourth paragraph, the first letter of the last name isn't capitalized. Also, there are points where there are commas that don't quite seem to make sense to me and places where a period would work better. However, that may simply be they way it sounds to my ears.

Review of Life in motion.  
Review by Detective
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
I enjoyed this story, though it was not what I expected when I first read the title. I was mildly confused as to exactly what was going on. However, that doesn't detract from the story. There's quite a bit that can be read between the lines. There's detail but not a large amount as this seems to be a snippet of something larger.

I enjoyed this little story. Dreams, and nightmares in particular, can leave one wondering, "what the heck?". Nightmares can disturb sleep to the point where you can't sleep. The description of the nightmare was well-written to pull the fear and bring the fear for the readers. Well-done.

Predators are often the most misunderstood members of the animal kingdom. Though predators are feared, they often represent many things, like courage and strength. If not for predators, other animals might become too numerous. I enjoyed this perspective on predators.

Review by Detective
Rated: E | (4.5)
I enjoyed this poem very much. There are times when goodbye isn't necessary or another word or phrase would work better to express what's going one. There's an emotion to this poem that is plain. I'm not sure if it's happy or sad. It might even be both. It's still a beautiful poem.
