Review of Armistice  
Review by Joylife
Rated: E | (4.0)
Angel - Thanks for your poem "Armistice." Since I'm a real amateur when comes to writing and more so with poetry my interpretation of your work may be off base. I see the shadow as either the shadow of war or the shadow of a person or spirit. Don't be disappointed if I have it all wrong. I checked your portfolio and see this is your first entry. Congratulations! I want to encourage you to keep writing. This site will be helpful to you and will give you the opportunity to explore your writing skills. Keep Writing, Keep Creating, and Enjoy the Journey.

Review of We're Only Human  
Review by Joylife
Rated: E | (5.0)
milena99 - Thanks for your essay about your grandmother. This article shows how the diagnosis and symptoms of mental illness can affect the one ill and their family. Your essay is most thought provoking and will be helpful to those who are experiencing a similar situation. I like the last sentence of your article "more unapologetically herself than I could ever be."
That is a great sentence and allows the reader to question how authentic they are. I checked your portfolio and see this is your first entry. Congratulations! Keep Writing, Keep Creating, and Enjoy the Journey.

Maerus - Thanks for your story, you certainly are creative as this is quite an imaginative story. I checked your portfolio and see this is your first entry. Congratulations! Whether you are new to writing or have been writing for quite some time, this site will help you. I want to encourage you to explore your writing. Sometimes, just a sentence or two can be developed into a story, so each scribble is important. The ones you can't use can get you that much closer to finding the words you want for your story.

Dallon - Your story is a reminder of how suddenly someone we love can be gone. I'm thinking this is a true story and if it is I'm sorry for all the sadness you have experienced. The way you describe the factory workers (sad, disappointed, and miserable) helps the reader understand how traumatic it is to have to quit school and become a factory worker. I checked your portfolio and see that this is your first entry. Congratulations! This site will be most helpful to you. I'm an amateur writer so my review won't be of much help, but I want to encourage you to keep writing. Whether you are new to writing or have been writing for a long time this site will give you the opportunity to expand and discover more about your writing. Good job!

Review by Joylife
Rated: E | (4.5)
Rhue Thanks for your poem, I'm not very good at interpreting poems because sometimes the writer has incorporated a mystical meaning into their work. I like this poem and my take on it is that you are writing about an actual fruit(apples). I really like the second stanza, I read it out loud and the words are a pleasure to read. I read your other poem, I think the title is Shotgun and it's very good. When I checked your portfolio I noticed this is your second entry. Congratulations! You will find this writing site most rewarding. I want to encourage you to keep putting your thoughts on paper and sharing your work with others. Good job! Keep Writing, Keep Creating, and Enjoy the Journey.

Review of TRAPPED  
Review by Joylife
Rated: E | (4.0)
keatlareste Thanks for your story. Since, I'm an amateur writer I won't critique your story, I will leave that for those more knowledgeable. The only suggestion I have(since I'm an older reader) is to think about spacing. Not so much sentences, but maybe paragraphs. Just a suggestion, I'm sure younger readers don't have a problem with it. I checked your portfolio and if I remember correctly this is your first entry. Congratulations! I'm sure you will enjoy this site. I just want to encourage you to continue with your writing. Your story did help me see the difficulties a person has in hiding their identity. Good job! Keep Writing, Keep Creating, and Enjoy the Journey.

Review by Joylife
Rated: E | (4.0)
jorjordays Just read your story and I like that you have the questions. The questions can be the prompt for a continuation or a new story. I'm an amateur writer so I don't critique very often. I did notice your spelling is good and your story left me wondering what is going to happen next. I checked your portfolio and see this is your second entry. Congratulations! This is a great place that can help you with your writing, being able to post and get reviews is most helpful. I want to encourage you in your writing. Even though at times it can be frustrating it can also be very rewarding. When I get frustrated and my story doesn't work out I just think I'm that much closer to writing the one that does. Good job! Keep Writing, Keep Creating, and Enjoy the Journey.
