Review of A Risky Purchase  
Review by Lesley Scott
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: E | (4.5)
This fun and fact-filled item explores how consumers usually conduct extensive research when making major purchases such as vehicles, houses, and other products. After sorting through the information and comparing prices, the consumber is able to make a decision.

Yet, when it comes to an all-out super and lifelong "purchase," such as a baby, humans lose objectiveity. Babies come with no manual or accessories and supplies, yet people only see and think of a cute little baby to be part of their family.

The study about how car owners are satisfied from 50 to 70% of the time. The study also shows that those who invest in a new baby are satisfied 99.99%! Isn't that predictable?

Keep up the Good Work!

Hey, Patrice!
I loved your roach story! You have a great imagination. Not many people I know would think to write about roaches. Your descriptions painted a picture, your grammar and spelling excellent. I just read the story to Cliff and he reminded me of the swarm of roaches on our carport. But I don't think there are millions!
Love,
Lesley

Your story about spirituality and materalism explained a lot about how we live our lives. I loved the line, " Material ism is outside the body, but spirituality is within the body." I heartily agree. I consider myself as a spiritual being, and read a lot about other religions and beliefs. I believe in nature and the universe, myself.

Hi, Itchy!
Congratulations on your win in the Wildlife Contest. You deserved to place. "We cough from the refuse, the elderly are now few and far between," and, " Trees and flowers once flourished, Now fading away as progress is made," are a great way to describe what is already happening!
Keep Writing!

This novel chapter is a very good read. The dialogue as well as the characters were believable. I also have little experience with fiction. I have an imagination problem. "When Chris patted my shoulder," should be the opening of the paragraph. It needs some more spacing. You may have intended to write it this way, but it makes it hard for me to read.
Keep on Writing,

I liked your poem. It made me feel like it was about the difference between good and evil and the gray area in between. "There id a small area that lies between, It has the soft coloring of gray. The two sections delicately mixed together, Swirled combinations of right and wrong." I liked that phrase.
Keep On Writing,

Review of Soul Rift

That quote is very relaxing as well as going inside one's self. ( " In a world of fate, love will break the bind. In each there is a whole, a piece of heart, soul and mind that will be undefined.") I really liked this quote, though there are others I also liked. There are lots more quotes that are motivational.
Good Job, Lesley

Great choices. I have read some of them. I paricuarly liked the one where she finds her father. Tell me, do I have to be a member for a certain time to write a story, not that I know enough. I will read some more and let my imagination run wild.
I've never, ever written this type of a story. I have lived such an unusal life, I write stories that have happened ti me. Did you read the one about how I was raped? Also, I wrote one about a boyfriend I loved dearly was killed in a fire. It took years to get over that.

The animal stories are better. I usually cry when I write about how much I loved them and I was their surrogate mother.
Teach me how to write your stories. I want to change my genre. People get board with the same old think. Oh, don't forget to read, " Giant Snake Holds Community Hostage."

Well let me read more of your stuff. First, I should answer my email.
Later, Wolfie.

Review of The Pack

I really loved the ending. It was a romance written during a nasty war. Lynn was smart to save Ki-Dan, he was the key. Between the two of them, they did what no one else could have done. The bomb saved their lives, but killed a lot of the enemy.

I thought the ending was great.They married and had a son. I have a feeling we will learn more about little Lin-Dan.

Good work

I love the original idea. When I joined I didn't know what was in store for me. After readingN BBW's entries, I think I may be able to do this. He also has a website about the world ending inDecmber 12. 20012. When and if that happens, I want to be the first one to go, I don't want to clean up the mess!

BBWold, I will be in touch. My fingers are bleeding agian. I'm worried it may damage my keyboard!

Review of Zena's Bio  
Review by Lesley Scott
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Zena formative years sound harsh and very sad. It was lucky that she was able to kill so many men, with no help. Being a hybrid may have served her well in her ability to dispatch so many people. Also, she has the instincs of a fox she was born to before the avalache.

Noticing this young twenty four year old cold cound do such damage, the leader, a venomuos snake, gave the group and order not to kill Zena, he had much use for her talents.As she broke into a museam, she noticed a statue with a wolf's head entitled, "The Golden Head of Zena." The rest of her group ransacked the museam, eating what they could, but leaving the statue of Zena.

This magificent hybid woman is outstanding, though her crimes have left a wake of dead in her path. She did what she had to do to stay alive in this group who wouldn't think twice about killing her if she showed any weakness.

Wow, Zena is so cool. She has been very successful in her life of crime, though she seems like she only commitsn them for good reason. She is an expert for robbing and killing. The mere number of her prey are too numerous to count.

Her incredible powerer, healing herself from injuries and being amune to poisons and stans seven feet tall. It isn't exacly clear, but I maybe wasn't paying attenton, but does Zena walk on all fours?

I am heading to the next story

Review of Zena's Christmas

Rated: ASR | (4.5)
This was a wonderful short story. One of the things I liked is it is straight, no wasted words of unnessary of needleass description. Your story tells the reader what he or she needs to know. For example, Zena's sense of not ever seeing snow before reminds me of myself. I live where the alligators sun them selves in December!

I am looking forward to reading more. One silly question ---- How can I reach others who have written to my blog. I noticed I had a lot, but when I wrote someone, all of the others can't be found. How do I get to that page. I came acrossyour page as I was searching.

Review of The Shadow Zone  
Review by Lesley Scott
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
This is an intereresting story. I enjoyed reading the story because of the intersing characters. The character called, "Verr," was very intersting, tying to keep track of his unforfortunetly tracic life. His mother, a schizoprenic, Committed suicicide. He greeved for her and it was too tragic for him to handle his morher's death.

Verr married, but he could'n deal he felt fo for his mother. He should have been there to stop her from the pointlest distanter.

He ended up in a psyciatic home for the mentan home for those who suffer disassoociation. He was gettinbg better and he was left in charge of Issam.

Isslan vervved the engine and started driving. He was called a "You Crazy Asshole."

The ending was excellent. Veer sat with his palms cupped to his face feeling safe in the dark. He called out, "Nayaro!" this made him feel at peace after all the had been through. I think Veer is a ver coragious person who has to get in touch with reality. He will.

I also liked this chapter. The spelling, as I noted before, is good, the wording and dialog is very good and it has the action I like and it all seems supernatual to me. I have not read too many books to review, but your chapters are just a perfect length. I am going to keep on reading, Kyle.

This chapter paints another interesting chapter. It has action, dialog, and a bit of surprise. I wonder what will happen next? Kyle is very brave to confront Nerag and use the Rainbow Fire. So far, the only thing that I think is that the sentenes are a little long, but it is also your style.

Yes, I "Have Ever!" That is such a great poem. It reads like it was written just for me. It must have taken you a long time to wrtie, you have so many "have yous'" listed. It is also anybody's poem, I think. I loved the last verse about losing yourself in someone's eyes. I know how that feels, as well.
Great Poem!

I thoughly thought youf sory about " Parenting is so funny, but so true. I wasn't expeting a bassett hound named Boo, who is learning to poop on aluminal foil. The fact that he has favorite spots to poop must make it easier, in case you forget and step in the nasty bowel movement. We have four hens in our back yard, their favorite place is all over the back porch. I have had some bad slips and fall, for only four eggs a day. Anyway, your story was great. Keep it up!

Review of Everyday cNotes 2  
Review by Lesley Scott

Rated: E | (4.5)
I am in love with your cNotes! At this moment, I keep looking at them a few times. "Peaseful Day." and" Follow your Dreams" would be perfect for Michaelfrommouintans. He has a picture of a waterfall on his page. He is a true outdoors man. Since I don't live on my farm any more, I guess I'm a "City Girl." Let me cool off from all of the s*** I've been through. In fact, they are good for deleting my emails. I hope You get the whole thing. You will probably have it edited. This is another reason they want me out. I want to buy some of your cNotes and I've been looking for a humpback whale. I found one. It's a picutre from another member. I have been trying to get it. Are Upgraded Authors allowed sigs. No one knows.

I will get back to you very soon!

I totally agree with your main theory about personality Development. Enough sleep, eating a proper diet, love and compassion for others and (I say) meditation two or three times a day. This clears your mind so you can relax and learn about yourself better. You've probably reading Dr. Wayne Dyer of Lao Tzu. Good work.

I think your poem is about what I, myself is what I believe in. If I am reading this right, you start out about sorrows, then you swap to a more positive statement, " Of Both possitive and negative emotion." I read a lot of spirital books and it seems you read a lot, as well. Your poem is very good.

This sad tale about spousal abuse was heart breaking. It seems that more women than ever have been victims of such horrble nature. Some say more women tell their tales because they have friends and relatives to help do what they can. A man should never justify hitting a woman, yet violence goes on.

keep up the Good writing. I know that the story took alot of you to write about domestic Violence!'
