Review of Me, Myself and I  
Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Hi iKiyasama,

This is a fantastic poem. The tone is full of self doubt. It grabs all the reader's attention and makes them want to read on. The poem is about a woman who is worried about the image of herself she is projecting to the world. I have worried about this a fair bit in my life until I realized that I am control of what the world sees, and people will make of it what they will. I loved this poem and read to the last word. The free verse 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 Anish,

This is a wonderful article. The title is enigmatic and attention grabbing. The reader knows you looked for a sound, but not what kind. They will begin to read to find this out. You launch into the article without introduction or preamble. This takes all the reader's attention and focuses it completely on the topic and the article. They will read to the last word. You have written about spending a decade looking for a piece of music you heard as a child. The reader is delighted with the look they get as you as a person as well as a writer. The length is perfect. You completely develop your topic without belaboring the issue and making the article tedious. I did come across one structural issue that needs your attention:

1) And then, one fine day, out of absolutely nowhere, the “sound” had struck again. And so began a quest to finally uncover the mystery composition. By this time, i had been exposed to an appreciable variety of western music, though the list would be heavily dominated by pop music, rock music being a distant second. Since a lot of rock music i had heard involved just instruments, my instinct went for rock. And so i googled, “Best Soft Rock Music”
Google returned a dazzling collection of soft rock music by varied artists. “Another Brick in the Wall” by Pink Floyd absolutely stumped me! But, nothing sounded even remotely close to the mystery composition.-These are two separate paragraphs and need to be double spaced.

You use a formal, organized style that is very appealing to the reader. Great job.

Hi VEE,

I don't write it much, so I love enjoying the marvelous poems from the poets here on the site. This one caught my attention with its enigmatic title and tantalizing synopsis. It promised to be emotional and uplifting. I had to find out what was next.

This is a fantastic poem. The tone is formal. It suits the poem and subject matter very well. The poem is about a girl in Africa who strives for Actualization and finds her way in challenging circumstances. I have had a few Facebook friends who describe Africa as having a rather hard society, and I read to the last word to see how this girl would fare in chasing her hopes and dreams. I loved this poem. The free verse works well in this poem, and you have handled it very well. The reader can understand the frustration that the girl must have felt during her journey through life. 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.

Hi Lexi,

The title of this really told me nothing about what was actually in the chapter. I was completely engrossed just wondering what was to come next. I just had to read this chapter.

This is a wonderful chapter. The chapter opens with a bit of a mystery. The Manor starts emptying of people. Why is this happening here? The reader can't wait to find out. This is a fantastic opening hook. The detail puts the reader all the way into the story. They are completely enthralled with the family's personal challenges. 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 a couple of structural issues that need your attention:

1)You have neglected to either double space or indent between paragraphs. You should remember to consistently do this to keep your writing clear for your reader.

2)You have neglected to put each piece of dialogue in its own paragraph. You should remember to consistently do this to keep your writing clear for your reader.

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

Hi aracrae,

I didn't know what to make of this chapter from the title. It tells very little about what the chapter actually contains. Now, I know that those that read the first part of the book would probably realize what might be going on. I was fascinated and just had to begin to read.

This is a fantastic chapter. The chapter opens with personal drama as Kal worries about Bel having nightmares. The reader believes that Bel must have some sort of personal problem, and is anxious to find out if Kal will be able to help. They will read on. This is a wonderful opening hook. The detail puts the reader all the way into the chapter. They get completely involved as the discussion gets more and more personal. 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. The characters are well developed and believable. They come across as real people. Great job.
