I'm the lead editor for a small independent press, but I am on maternity leave for the next several years and thus not accepting submissions. I'll tell you my professional opinion on first chapters or short pieces and whether I would have accepted it or rejected it if I was looking for work. I've dealt most with controversial speculative fiction, and I'm most interested in polyamory a.k.a consensual non-monogamy.

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This provides a lot of food for thought.

The grammar could use work. If you want a more in-depth look at sentence structures, I recommend reading "The Elements of Grammar" by Margaret Shertzer.

Review of Play Place

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This is absolutely beautiful. Personally, I stopped tidying, except for toys that require supervision such as playdough and art supplies, and Husband picked up the slack.

Thanks for requesting my review!

My press doesn't deal with poetry, but this does look like a skillfully crafted list. Each title is enticing, and the descriptions provide added information about what to expect.

I'm not quite sure what EP means here. Is each numbered item in the list supposed to be an EP, because it gives me the impression that each numbered item would contain multiple poems, and all the items combined would culminate in a full-length book?

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

I like the realism here. However, I would like it better if a bit of honesty turned the situation around. What does she have to lose, anyway? Is she financially dependent on him? Do they want to have children?

It would indeed be nice to witness a collab. Being a mom is indeed no easy task, though. You can't make time for anything without the help of others.

Try having a toddler and being desperate for a few minutes alone. Everything should be taken in moderation.

Review of The Wait  
Review by K5Rakitan

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

After finding "the one" when I was 18 and him cutting off communication with me because he was asexual and my hormones were a raging inferno, I've come to the conclusion that believing in only one can be quite harmful psychologically.

Now I've got "We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billy Joel stuck in my head. I am by no means saying I'm innocent, but I have drawn a few lines in the sand despite pressure from others.

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This is a good start, but when you say "This program," which one are you referring to? If you mean all the scholarship programs in various countries, it would work better to say, "These programs."
