My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I found this using the Read and Review feature. THE POEM A poem that told the tale of the yggdrasil tree and when Odin paid it a visit.

WHAT I LIKED I enjoyed the storytelling elements. STRUCTURE This is an epic poem. It contains a long narrative with an epic hero who engages in an action of major significance. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes.

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (5.0)

Given:   Aug 20, 2026 at 5:37am

Length:   1,000 Characters | 899 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY Patsy is a rabbit who gets dared to steal a carrot but there are dogs... WHAT I LIKED I was very impressed with the action sequence. I was hopping as fast as I could right along with Patsy. OPENING PARAGRAPH The opening paragraph raised the tension and suspense well. I especially liked: "Her breath came in ragged and rasping gasps." MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The chapter used short tight sentences to build suspense and left the reader wondering what would happen to Patsy when the humans found her. I was ready to turn the page and find out what happens. A solid chapter that had this reader's buy-in.

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (5.0)

Given:   Aug 20, 2026 at 4:45am

Length:   1,224 Characters | 1,078 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I used the "Read and Review" feature to find this poem. THE POEM A poem inspired by the presence of God. WHAT I LIKED I loved the spiritual tone and inspirational vibe of the poem. It felt like a psalm to me. STRUCTURE This is a free form poem with no apparent rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "His prowess bestows An inspiring joy," This line resonated the most with me. The Lord inspires hope and goodness and a lot of the psalms have that in common. There's a positivity in believing in the blessings of the Lord. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening intrigues the reader with the "grand awakening." What is that about? The title is representative of the poem's content. Overall, there's an uplifting beat and a reverence tone that lingers.

Length:   949 Characters | 836 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE WORD SEARCH This was a word search centered around family. WHAT I LIKED I enjoyed the simplicity of the word search and I thought the family theme was heartwarming. ENGAGING The word search was very engaging. It was compact which made finding the words fun. VARIETY The words stayed on theme with the topic of family. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS I might suggest filling out the introduction, as I wasn't sure if this reflective of the creator's family or a family that you would watch on TV. Overall, a fun puzzle and a nice break in your day. An Angel Army Review

Length:   1,305 Characters | 1,219 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY Robert is running from someone/something. WHAT I LIKED The short, choppy sentences, put me right in the action with Robert, running alongside him, hoping against hope that one of those gunshots don't hit him. I wanted him to make it. OPENING PARAGRAPH The opening puts the reader right in the heat of the run. I wasn't thinking, I was running, trying to stay on top of the game. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The title is appropriate for the story. If anything, I was bit confused by the ending and if there were clues, (aside from the man's star) I missed them. I wasn't sure to take his comment about "Son," literally, as if father/son, or as a type of endearment between an older man and younger man who have a type of working relationship. And Robert was waiting for a woman? In that regard, I would suggest giving the ending a more definitive ending. Overall, a pulse-pounding read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Review of Traffic jam on Interstate 90  

Review by StephBee

Rated: 13+ ★★★★★ | (4.5)

Given:   Aug 18, 2026 at 6:05am

Length:   1,077 Characters | 981 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY There's a traffic jam on Interstate 90 and it's not because of the usual things... FIRST IMPRESSIONS I'll be honest - the title sucked me in. I was curious what could have caused the traffic jam. WHAT I LIKED I liked different perspectives from the occupants stuck in the jam. We've all got our places to go but sometimes we just gotta stop and smell the concrete. OPENING PARAGRAPH The story plunked the reader right down in the middle of the dilemma on the rain-slicked asphalt. It's a bit chilly, a tad rainy, and wicked stressful. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The story built tension and suspense well and the ending will leave you wondering if the Transformers can save the day!

Review of Nesting Dolls  

Review by StephBee

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army  

Rated: 13+ ★★★★★ | (3.5)

Given:   Aug 17, 2026 at 12:18pm

Length:   3,722 Characters | 3,586 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY An unnamed narrator takes a life journey though the following decades 40's, 50's, 60's, which involved periodic "trips" using a substance known as "hazers." FIRST IMPRESSIONS This isn't my usual subject matter so I needed to brush up on my WDC knowledge. WHAT I LIKED I liked the narrator's voice. The story was easy to read. The writing showed vs telling, which made it easier to read. That said, reading the "trips," which were again easy to read, slowed me down because I really wanted to understand what was going on and grasp how it was affecting the narrator throughout his life. POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the first person by an unnamed narrator. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately. DIALOGUE There is no dialogue. The story is told through narration only. DESCRIPTIONS The descriptions were succinct and to the point and engaged all five senses. For example: "I saw white clouds of energy flowing around my hands." and "The light was warm at first but then it burned my burned my flesh and my skin turned to ask and floated up like paper all around me." SETTING TIME: 1940's through the 1960's and the ending implies a "future" date possibly in the 80's or 90's. PLACE: most rural settings as the narrator tends to wander from place to place. This is something that that is clarified for the reader. CHARACTERS Unnamed Narrator There's enough here to understand why he does what he does. The narrator is a reflection of his times - a rebel against the silent generation who finds the appeal in leading what life is expected of him as rebel son of a World War II veteran. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling mistakes. I might suggest a minor edit for punctuation. There are several words that require the appropriate capitalization and I would suggest spelling out World War II. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS Suggestions: - as your introduction mentions "psychedelics," I would change the intro rating to NON-E. Nothing wrong with changing the rating, but a NON-E rating is more accurate in my opinion on WDC. - I would rate this as 18 plus as the the described drug use and violence rise above mild 13 plus rating. - I might suggest looking at the assigned genres. While I do think "dark" fits, I didn't see the philosophy or religious aspects and thought "psychology" and "experience" might be better fits. - I did find resolution in the ending in that the narrator was able to find a wife and have children and establish his own family. As a reader, I was curious about any resolution involving his family when he was a child. The conclusion that the "hazers" opened the mind and revealed a nesting doll of thousands to conscious minds seemed a logical conclusion after the previous induced experiences. Overall though, I found the "trips" disturbing on a personal level (yet rational given the context of the story). - I am currently rating the story 3.5 due to the intro rating/rating/genre categories not fitting the context of the story. If you do an edit, I will change the rating to 4, because I do think the writing is solid, the storytelling cohesive, and the ending resolves the story enough to the reader's satisfaction, though it is not necessarily something that I would seek out to choose to read.

Review of Camping Trip  

Review by StephBee

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army  

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (4.5)

Given:   Aug 16, 2026 at 2:47pm

Length:   1,704 Characters | 1,562 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I found this item using the "Read and Review" feature. THE POEM This was a poem about the ups and downs of camping. WHAT I LIKED I thought the poet did a good job looking at what makes camping fun. STRUCTURE This is a lyric poem with 5 quatrains and an ABAB rythme scheme. On the A_A_ scheme I thought there were a couple of near rythmes, but overall, it worked as a recreational read. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "I won’t be looking forward to the aftermath, But I am sure I will have lots of memories sublime." These are the ending lines and I thought they were affective in capturing the totality of the camping trip. Other stanzas mentioned sleeping in tents and worrying about the critters, bug bites, and swimming, eating s'mores and scary stories. A camping trip leaves one invigorated by nature, but if you didn't prepare you'll have to deal with critters and bugs. There are a lot of nice visuals in the poem that will appeal to your all your senses from sunsets to scratching. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening invites the reader in as they wonder what it would be like to go camping. Honestly, it made me want to plan another camping trip. Overall, the poem does a great job capturing the highs and lows of camping life.

Review of Thirty-three Years  

Review by StephBee

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army  

Rated: 13+ ★★★★★ | (5.0)

Given:   Aug 16, 2026 at 2:33pm

Length:   1,458 Characters | 1,348 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I found this story using the "Read & Review" feature. THE STORY Sania has been alone for 33 years, and is reflective about that, but in helping a neighbor she looks back at her life choices and wonders... FIRST IMPRESSIONS I liked Sania immediately. She was just a woman with a kind heart and that came through right away. As the story unfolded and we got to see her in various different roles in her life, we discover a more well rounded, multi-faceted person. She isn't afraid to make a hard decision and stick with it. She's a good friend. OPENING PARAGRAPH The opening paragraph was intriguing. I wanted to know what 33 years meant to Sania and that meaning, as it unfolds, has pros and cons. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make it easier to read on WDC. Dialogue tags were used appropriately. PARTING THOUGHTS This is a well rounded character driven story that touches the heart. What I especially liked is how the story tackled the contest's prompt and showed the reader in a very vivid way how negative actions can affect people.

Length:   1,615 Characters | 1,460 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. I found this poem using the "Read and Review" feature. THE POEM The poem was an introspective look at a boy. FIRST IMPRESSIONS Introspective came to mind first, but then I thought of deeply personal, psychology, and self-exploration. A lot, I know. Introspection came first for me because this is the type of person I was when I was younger. (way younger I might add) - and that's why the poem connects. On a level of growth - not just physically but emotionally as well. WHAT I LIKED I liked the raw honesty used in the poem. STRUCTURE This is a free form poem with no apparent rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "If you got close, he'd bloom like a flower," Actually, this was a tough assessment for me, because so many lines hit home. That said I chose a rather uplifting one, and it connects, on a raw, emotional level - get to know him/me and "I" will bloom like you've never seen before. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening intrigues the reader with "there once was a boy," and keeps them reading. The title is simple and speaks to the honesty of the poem. Overall, a wonderful, reflective look of human growth.

Length:   1,175 Characters | 1,053 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE WORD SEARCH This is a word search based on the movie, Grease. WHAT I LIKED What a blast from the past. I remember when Grease was the big thing in the late 70's. Believe it or not, I wasn't a big fan of Grease, but I LOVED Grease 2. It was probably generational. I wasn't around for the 50's, but I seemed to connect more with the 60's. ENGAGING The word search used a lot of words that you would use to describe the storyline and was very challenging. VARIETY There were a lot of solid choices that are reflective of the movie. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction did a great job putting the puzzle taker in a Grease frame of mind with the song. Overall, a fun puzzle if you're a Grease fan. It will the stir the nostalgic heartstrings in you.

VARIETY There were a lot of good choices that stayed on topic. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction was simple and to the point. If you decorate the introduction you might give away the big question, so keeping it simple works here. Overall, this was a fun puzzle to solve.

Length:   1,577 Characters | 1,384 w/o WritingML

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE MEMOIR A man recounts how he came to enjoy flying airplanes at a young age. WHAT I LIKED I enjoyed the enthusiastic voice of the story. As a reader, I could feel the passion the author had for flying. POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the first person by the author. Good job with narration. Past tense is used appropriately. THEME For me, I picked out the theme of coming of age. A young 16 year old takes flight lessons and takes his first solo flight at that age. There's a thrill and a wonder of being in the air like that - the resilience and discipline learned will resonate throughout his life. EMOTIONAL BEATS How well does the emotional beat resonate with the reader? Great; Good; Okay. The author did a good job capturing the excitement of flying and how that passion resonated throughout his life. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening intrigues the reader by capturing the thrill of flying over a storm and seeing the dawn of a new day. The writing is concise and to the point with an honesty that the reader can appreciate.

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE CROSSWORD This is a crossword about cars. WHAT I LIKED I like cars so I thought this crossword would be a good challenge. ENGAGING And it was a good challenge. My interest made the crossword engaging but gosh, I had a devil of a time spelling the stuff I did know! haha! And somethings I couldn't figure out even when I checked with a search engine. VARIETY There were a lot of good questions, though the clue about tires had me stumped until the end! MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction did a good job setting the table for the crossword puzzle taker. My only suggestion might be to put the answers in a dropnote so they're not easily visible. I think it would help the puzzle taker at the end when all the other options are exhausted. Overall, if you like changing your own oil - ah, have an interest in cars, you'll find this fun.

This isn't my typical review so please forgive. I picked this poem for the inspirational theme it presented. I like how it pointed out to those who heard the Lords word then there was strength for the new day. I found expression vivid and yet it gave the reader to pause to really think about what was written and how important it was to put the Lord the center in your life. Overall honest, sincere and thought provoking

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE POLL It's all about archaeology and who your favorite is. WHAT I LIKED I liked that the choices were recognizable and relatable. ENGAGING What makes this poll engaging is the choices. Both are well known and have some awesome adventures between them. The poll taker needs to pause and really weigh out who they're choosing and why. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS You could always jazz up the introduction with a giphy or graphic, but the question does a good job setting up the scenario to select who would be better figuring out clues. Overall, an intriguing action/adventure poll. An Angel Army Review

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE POEM The poem about pressure in a relationship. FIRST IMPRESSIONS The poet used a good economy of words to paint haunting emotions. STRUCTURE This is a free poem with with no apparent rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "pressure it builds who we are who we aren't" I really liked these lines because their short, succinct, and capture the pressure felt within relationships in all phases - starting, the strain of making it work, years of togetherness and saying good bye at the end. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS I think the story sentences really amp up the "feeling" of pressure. Overall, a poem that will make you think about where you want your relationships to go.

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE POEM This poem is a nice tribute to those pilots military pilots who lift the nation up on courage and honor. WHAT I LIKED I was very impressed with how the author captured the shape of a jet. Well done! FIRST IMPRESSIONS The opening lines remind us that we fly to keep Freedom in the land of the free. It's a simple sentiment but one that is challenging these days. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS I especially liked the ending "Forever above us, on these wings, America is the Home of the Brave." Home of the brave is used often, so it's nice to see it used in this context with purpose and meaning, and as a solid reflection of military service. The poem stirred the patriotic heartstrings of this veteran. A Bard's Hall Contest Review

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE WORD SEARCH This word search had a FIFA 2026 theme. WHAT I LIKED I had a blast enjoying the FIFA games this year and this word search brought back some good memories. ENGAGING The word search was very engaging and fun. All the FIFA favorites were included and once I found one, the next one was ready to go. VARIETY There were a lot of good choices that stayed on topic. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction did a good job letting the puzzle taker know what to expect from the word search. If anything, maybe change the pic from a baseball field to a soccer field? Overall though, this was a fun word search. If you enjoyed FIFA, you'll enjoy this word search! An Angel Army Review

Review of The Last Salute

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE STORY It's time for the Memorial Day parade and young Ethan learns a life lesson as he talks to Walter, a military veteran. WHAT I LIKED I loved the characterization in the story. This felt like "ordinary" America, in a small town where respect, honor, and reverence was in the heart of the townspeople. It felt like the town I grew up in and brought back some hazy, yet similar memories when I attended the parade for the 200th celebration of USA. I was 8. POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the 3rd person omniscient. Past tense is used in the story. DIALOGUE The dialogue does a nice job balancing the narration. There's a nice flow to the story. OPENING PARAGRAPH The opening paragraph really sets the scene for the story so when the dialogue starts, the reader is right there - maybe even sitting in a lawn chair between Walter and Ethan, waving their own flag and enjoying the parade. CHARACTERS Walter and Ethan. Walter is the veteran with friendship in his heart and deep reverence for his country. His actions pique Ethan's curiosity and it's a life lesson for Ethan that he won't forget. FLOW & PACING The opening set the scene, the middle explored history and served for character growth, and the end finished on an uplifting moment. MECHANICS I did not notice and spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The title fits the story well. I felt like I was right there in the moment watching the parade, Walter, and Ethan. The story captured a simple, poignant conversation well, one that will resonate over decades. A Bee Hive Review for the July 2026 Veterans Group Challenge
