Review of Pets  

Review by SoccerBee

Length:   1,190 Characters | 1,072 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 the member using the Completely Random feature. It's kind of nice because you can find some real gems that way. THE POLL This is a poll with a pet theme. WHAT I LIKED It's National Pet Month, so I couldn't turn down this poll. ENGAGING The poll was very engaging with its options. It has all the usual options plus some fun ones and allows for others. I'm thinking Andy here with his spiders. Of course Dogs was the bigger winner. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS My only suggestion would be to jazz up the introduction a little and maybe explain why you wanted to do a poll like this - personalize it a little. I did see it was modified in 2020 but when you check the online status the member hasn't been on since JAN 2009. Overall, it's a nice compliment for national pet month.

Also, I would use more words and phrases associated with cars since there's room. I did not the member hasn't been on since January 2009 so an update might not be doable.

Length:   1,174 Characters | 1,045 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 word search using the completely random feature under word searches. THE WORD SEARCH A word search geared for words appealing to toddlers and trying foods (per the introduction). WHAT I LIKED The puzzle was very compact so it made finding the words fun. ENGAGING The word search was very engaging. Once you found a word, you found a couple of more words. VARIETY There were a lot of choices, but I didn't really see where the words stayed on theme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS If anything, I would flesh out the introduction a bit more and make the words a bit more connective, however it looks like the member hasn't been on since May 2008, so that may not be an option. I did enjoy the puzzle and it was a nice break from the routine. A Bee Hive Review FORUM Steph Bee's Honey Pit   (E) JUNE2026 - hang out with the Bees & enjoy the Flowers.

Review of When She Calls me Superman  

Review by SoccerBee

In affiliation with The WDC Angel Army  

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (4.5)

Given:   May 26, 2026 at 6:05pm

Length:   937 Characters | 845 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 Lyrics These lyrics were about the inspiration of love using mythological and comic book heroes to paint the picture. What I Liked I could feel the beat and get a sense for the song as I read the lyrics out loud. There's a natural rhythm and flow to the words. Mechanics I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use to WDC ML to enhance the presentation. Parting Thoughts If anything, I thought these lyrics could use a refrain. Also, I thought that the storytelling aspect of the lyrics went on a tad long, but overall, the rythme scheme works and the song does a nice job painting visuals for the listener.

Length:   1,134 Characters | 1,015 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 POEM A poem about the circular rhythm of nature. WHAT I LIKED I loved how the different colors were used to convey the different seasons. STRUCTURE This is a lyrci poem with 5 quatrains with an alternating _A_A and A_A_ rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to highlight the poem. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Autumn winds lash deciduous, Trees leaves to and fro'" These are the opening lines of the poem, but they pull the reader right in. One can feel the whipping winds and the chill on their cheeks as autumn settles in. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The tag line is perfect for this poem - hinting at what the poem delivers so the reader can peek in. The title is a good fit for the poem. Nice expression.

Length:   1,332 Characters | 1,198 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/prose using the "Read & Review" feature. First Impressions The poem/prose discusses the high and lows of the sport of bowling. What I Liked I think I would call this more prose than poetry. That said, I was attracted to it because I enjoy bowling and I could definitely with placing a ball in the gutter and creditable aim will win you big prizes. Mechanics I did not spot any spelling/punctuation issues. Description I especially liked: "To ensure their universal grace and longevity Out on the lanes." These are the last lines of the prose but really capture honest emotion well. To succeed as a bowler, it does require grace and the ability to let your mistakes go so you can go the distance on the lanes. Parting Thoughts One the categories this was in was "inspirational" and I could definitely see that. The prose had an upbeat/glass half full feel to it that was encouraging. Overall, this was an honest at the ups and downs of bowling.

Length:   1,178 Characters | 1,058 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 word search using the Browse by Type - Word Search - Completely Random menu. You can find some real 'gems' when it comes to word searches this way. THE WORD SEARCH *puzzle* This is a word search where all the words have the letter "H" in common. WHAT I LIKED The puzzle contained a unique blend of words that made it interesting. ENGAGING I thought the word search was very engaging. It was compact and the words were challenging in a good way with all the "H's." MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS If anything, I would jazz up the introduction a bit more, use a giphy or graphic or explain why you went with a letter H puzzle, however I noted that the member has not been on since Feb 2012. Overall, this is a fun puzzle to take advantage of when you need a break.

Length:   1,241 Characters | 1,149 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. First Impressions Kim, a daredevil pilot, takes the family on an airplane ride from Connecticut to Maine. I'm all one for a good plane, but I think I would have apprehensions as well concerning the bad weather. What I Liked I loved the sense of family in the story and how they looked out for each other. Being from New England myself, I caught the vibe pretty quick. Mechanics I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. If anything, My suggestion would be to increase the font to make it easier to read on the website. Parting Thoughts I thought this was a solid character driven story and the genre categories picked were appropriate. Another suggestion would be to jazz up the title a little - maybe something like "Out racing the storm," which could have two meanings #1, the literal storm and #2 out racing Jim's wraith, thus heightening the character driven aspects of the story as well. Overall, a very engaging read. An Angel Army Review FORUM Angel Review Forum  (ASR) Read, Review, Rate and Record all items read by the Army Angels. #1188311 by iKïyå§ama Muses on Things

Length:   1,314 Characters | 1,199 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 word search using the "Completely Random" search under Browse by Type - Word Searches THE WORD SEARCH This is a word search featuring the Harry Potter characters. What I liked I loved the Harry Potter stories so finding this word search was a gem. I had a good time looking for the words and it brought back good memories. Engaging I thought the word search was very engaging, especially if you like the Harry Potter series. There are 17 words that were used in the puzzle and they stayed on topic. If anything, my one suggestion would be to find a couple more words (do-able!) that were related. Mechanics I did not spot any spelling/punctuation issues. Parting Thoughts If anything, I might expand the introduction a bit more to attract more puzzle takers, add a giphy or a graphic, or talk a little more about what you enjoyed about the series. On a check though, I saw the member has not been on March 2008. Overall, a fun puzzle for Harry Potter fans.

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. First Impressions As a Veteran, I definitely connected with Jessie. There's a sense of pride for having served your country and giving a little piece of yourself to the nation. You've suffered hardships so others didn't have to. And it hurts sometimes when some people don't appreciate it. What I liked I thought the look at Jessie's life really tugged on the heartstrings and tapped into emotions well. 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 the website. Parting Thoughts The title was a good fit for the topic of the story. The story flowed well and possessed a simmering patriotism what warmed the heart. Overall, a rich look at a veteran's life after the military.

Review of Combat Tactical

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (3.5)

Given:   May 23, 2026 at 8:21am

Length:   1,141 Characters | 1,020 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 A word search with a focus on tactical combat. WHAT I LIKED I haven't seen a word search with a focus on tactics so I was lured in. At first, I thought this might be military orientated, but working with LAPD, I realized LE uses these terms and tactics as well. ENGAGING I found the word search very engaging as I was familiar with the terms. VARIETY There were a 13 words to look for, so if anything, this could probably be expanded. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS I might change up the introduction to explain the puzzle maker interest in this topic and maybe what some of the words mean. It's a nice word search with a military/LE theme. The author has not been on since 10/2017. Overall, it's a fun puzzle.

Review of The Storm Rages Above

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (3.5)

Given:   May 23, 2026 at 7:44am

Length:   1,471 Characters | 1,352 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 POEM The poem tells the story of a submarine who has to go to the bottom of the ocean to avoid a storm. WHAT I LIKED I liked the story the poem told. It piqued my curiosity. STRUCTURE This is a lyric poem with 8 quatrains and an ABAB rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Good use of WDC ML to increase the font and make easier to read. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Run silent from the slightest stir, as this chess game's mate's stale," Nice expression here as the reader finds the submarine on the ocean floor waiting out the storm - and how does one deal with that? A lot is left up to the emotional imagination. Do you play cards? Complete routine tasks? Take an extra sleep shift? Do some not mind and some find themselves on the verge of losing their minds? PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS While the poem tells a story that stirs emotions, I found the rythmes to be a bit forced and I might suggest just going free form with this. I think the story is solid enough where rythmes would be nice but not necessarily needed. An Angel Army Review for the Veterans Group May 2026 Challenge.

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 A word search featuring famous actresses. WHAT I LIKED What a great collection of actresses spanning a big amount of time. That's what made the puzzle so fun. ENGAGING The word search was very engaging. Some names were right in front of you, but some names you had to hunt for her. It made the puzzle challenging. VARIETY There were a lot of great choices. I can imagine it was hard to narrow down. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction did a great job setting the table for the puzzle. This puzzle makes you think about what some of your favorite actresses are. We had a several names in common. Big Fun!

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 A word search all about Toddlers. WHAT I LIKED It's been a while since I had toddlers, but this brought back a lot of fun memories when the boys were little. ENGAGING The word search was very engaging and had me smiling as I moved from word to word. VARIETY There were a lot of good choices that summed up the life of toddlers from "Gimme" to "Not Me." MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The introduction was succinct and to the point. It could go for a little dress up, but the I noticed the member hasn't been on since 2014. Still, this is a fun search that will bring back heartwarming memories at any age. Enjoy!

Length:   1,239 Characters | 1,117 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 & Review" feature. THE LYRICS An older man reflects on a past lived and words unsaid. WHAT I LIKED I liked the refrain: "No one truly knows, As the saying goes, That life's a gift And I've cherished every day that I've seen." I could easily pick up a rhythm as I read the words out loud. STRUCTURE Lyrics are a way to convey emotion and tell a story. It involves blending meter and rythme to create rhythm and resonance. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "My full blond crown has turned gray for all to see. My slight frame has expanded outwards like a tree," This is the opening but it paints the passage of time well. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening invites the reader in with a nice lyrical beat. The title is reflective of the song. Heartfelt and sincere.

Rated: E ★★★★★ | (3.5)

Given:   May 18, 2026 at 5:58am

Length:   1,388 Characters | 1,259 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 & Review" feature. THE POEM The poem was about the progression of life and adulting. WHAT I LIKED The last stanza really framed the poem for me. STRUCTURE This is a lyric poem with 4 quatrains and an AAAA rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Look for the gift, and just love what you do! Life is a journey of meaning so due," This was a very revealing verse for me. I think we all have a talent - it's just a matter of identifying it and growing it - and that's what gives life and the journey meaning. It really speaks to the nature of growing up. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening honestly was a bit confusing to me. The first thing that came to mind was the axis of evil from World War II but on a re-read I think the wording is addressing the white-color business environment and how ruthless it can be. In that regard, I might suggest using a more succinct word selection to avoid the confusion.

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 was a look at the nature which makes Vermont beautiful. WHAT I LIKED The poet did a wonderful job capturing the beauty of rural Vermont. (yes, I've been to Vermont and could easily picture the Green Mountains.) STRUCTURE This is a lyric poem with 8 quatrains and an _A_A rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "Crystal clear waters rushing, Quickly ore the stone," This is a wonderful visual. I pictured a gorge, cut out by a rushing river, the water clear and fresh, slowly eroding the stones it covers. The air is crisp and invigorating and scene touches on all 5 senses as I can hear the water sloshing on the rocks. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening invites the reader to the green mountains of Vermont. The title is a good fit for the poem. I enjoyed the reverent tone for the poet's home in the poem.

Review of Oct 8 Protagonist Background Story

Rated: 13+ ★★★★★ | (2.5)

Given:   May 17, 2026 at 5:16am

Length:   1,757 Characters | 1,625 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 using the "Read & Review" feature. THE STORY A broken hearted man gets drunk at the grave of his dead wife. POV NARRATION/TENSE This is told in the 3rd person limited from Mikolaj's perspective. Past tense is used in the story. DIALOGUE The dialogue accents the narration, however I did find it confusing. There's a "Sasha," "Mandy" and a "Nicky" which I found confusing in trying to figure who was speaking. I suspect Sasha was a nickname for Mikolaj? Not sure. OPENING PARAGRAPH The opening paragraph set up the scene well. Mikolaj is drinking at the grave of his loved one. CHARACTERS Mikolaj comes across as sad, but I wasn't sure if he was talking to ghosts or real life people who came to check on him. FLOW & PACING I found the flow and pacing a bit inconsistent due to the confusion in who was who and who was speaking. MECHANICS I did not notice and spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS The implies this is setting the table for the hero's background, and if that's the case, I can understand that. Usually when preparing to write for stories, background exercises can be confusing. If anything, I might clarify speakers to take away the confusion or better yet, maybe write the story in the first person to help avoid confusion? If this is re-written to clean up the confusion, I'd be willing to rate the item higher.

HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews"  My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. First Impressions This was a word search about flowers. I found it simple and the simplicity is what make the puzzle appealing. Engaging The word search is very engaging. There's a nice of variety of flowers to look for. The word search stayed on topic without mussing the dirt. Mechanics I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. Suggestions/Parting Thoughts My suggestion would be to plant a garden in the introduction and set the table for the puzzle taker. What's your favorite flower. What motivated you to make the puzzle. Why did you pick the flowers you did. Overall though this was a nice break between activities here on WDC and flowers always make one smile.

HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews"  My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE POLL This is a poll about favorite Western actors. WHAT I LIKED There were a lot of great actors in the poll. Once you think about it, there's not enough space to list them all. ENGAGING The poll was very engaging. The introduction did a great job hyping the poll and piquing interest. VARIETY There were a lot of choices which made it hard. I chose John Wayne, but it was tough between him and Clint Eastwood. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS I have no suggestions for improvement. The title is a solid reflection of the poll, and the introduction was spot on. Westerns are a genre that have come and gone, but has it's appeal in a rugged sort of way. This a poll that's great conversation starter.

HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Anniversary Reviews"  My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE POEM A poem centered around Thanksgiving, offering items for giving thanks. WHAT I LIKED I liked the ending stanza and the wish for peace for the whole human race. STRUCTURE This is lyric poem with 3 lines in each stanza. There is an A_A rythme scheme. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. The poem is easy to read and has a nice flow when read out loud. Good use of WDC ML to increase and color the font. DESCRIPTIONS I liked: "With the wind whistling in the back tree, as over the land we display a peaceful nature," I liked this visualization. I could picture myself out in my Grandmother's backyard, exploring, the leaves hanging on by a thread with the wind gently blowing them off, a chill in the air and pausing to stop to appreciate the cycle of nature. PARTING THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS The opening draws the reader in with trimmings on the table, and keeps them reading. The title is a nice fit for the poem. I loved the heartbeat of the poem which was filled with appreciation and gratitude.

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE IMAGE Two colorful birds head to head. WHAT I LIKED I loved the colors on the birds but I also appreciated seeing them head to head, like they were saying to one another, "Hey, I you." ENGAGING The image is visually appealing and makes one smile. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS My only suggestion here would be to explain the photograph a little bit. Are they parrots? I'm not familiar with what type of birds of they are. Some background into the picture who help in giving the pose a tad more depth to the person's observations. Overall, a colorful picture filled with warm sentiments.

My review is based on professional editing points. It is meant to be honest, encouraging, and respectful in accordance with WDC guidelines. THE IMAGE A relaxed image of a river with vibrant grassy riverbanks and an outhouse. WHAT I LIKED The tone of the image is reminiscent of a Thomas Kincade painting. It paints a relaxing scene and offers an uplifting vibe. ENGAGING The image will have you pause just to slow down and enjoy it. It touches the spiritual heart. MECHANICS I did not spot any spelling/punctuation mistakes. PARTING THOUGHTS Again, my only suggestion would be to add a sentence or two as to why you selected this image for your portfolio, but again, that's going the extra mile. Overall, it offers a heartwarming, peaceful scene. A Bee Hive Review for Best of the Rest, APR 2026
