Review of "Lipstick"  
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hi Doctor007,
This is a wonderful piece. The tone is melancholy. It grabs all the reader's attention and makes them want to read on. The reader is wondering if the relationship between the speaker and his wife will endure. They will read to the last word to find out. The piece is about a couple who has found a comfortable relationship beyond romance as time has passed. The piece is narrative as opposed to conflict based. This rare in literature and very interesting. There is no doubt about what is going on here. The characters are well developed and believable. They come across as real people. There is no dialogue but it is not needed here. The description is detailed and vivid. It puts the reader all the way into the story. I did come across one structural issue that needs your attention:

1)In a few places you have neglected to double space between paragraphs. You should consistently do this to keep your writing clear for your reader.

The story is consistent in terms of point of view and tense. You have accomplished a great deal in just a few words. Great job.

Hi Fyn,
This is a fantastic poem. The tone starts off full of melancholy and sorrow but ends in joy and fond remembrance. The contrast captures all the reader's attention and makes them want to read on. The poem is about a sad moment of a friend's passing that turns joyful as her friends remember and celebrate her life. I think that all funerals should end up like this one. I loved this poem and read to the last word. The free verse poetic form works well in this poem, and you have handled it very well. There is a wonderful rhythm here. The poem flows extremely well. It is a pleasure to read. You have used punctuation and grammar consistently in this poem. There is nothing to distract the reader from their reading pleasure. Great job.

Hi Nemesis,
This is a wonderful chapter. The chapter opens with vivid description. This grabs all the reader's attention and focuses it completely on the chapter. They will read on. This is a fantastic opening hook. The detail is vivid. It puts the reader all the way into the chapter. The reader is wondering if Liam will be able to cope with his family long term. The dialogue is well done and realistic. The characters speak like real people. The chapter is well paced. It moves fast enough to keep all the reader's attention, yet it moves slowly enough to allow the reader to easily follow what is going on in the chapter. I did come across one structural issue that needs your attention:


1)“always a pleasure to meet a friend of my son.” He released her hand.-"always" should begin with a capital letter.

The characters are well developed and believable. They come across as real people. Great job.
