Hi Tammy~Catchin Up~ I am here to give you my thoughts on "A Vile Visitor" , which was highlighted for review by Simply Positive.
OVERALL:
A dark poem about a dream that fits the genre well.
WHAT I LIKED:
I've always liked dark poetry, and I think this has a lot of potential. You have all the words right, but, and this is just my opinion, it is missing some of the emotion behind it. I didn't feel the panic or the fear in the words.
SUGGESTIONS:
Just to add a bit of emotions to the poem.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING/STRUCTURE:
There were no grammar or spelling mistakes noticed. The poem flowed will and had a nice rhythm to it.
Hi Blake I am here to give you my thoughts on "Eyes of the Earth" , which was highlighted for review by Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers.
OVERALL:
The story of a terrible tragedy that befalls a family. You have a nice cliffhanger which leaves the reader wondering about what the messenger says.
WHAT I LIKED:
I have to admit, at first I was put off by the short sentences and the lack of any description, but as I continued to read, it made perfect sense for the story and shows the character nicely.
SUGGESTIONS:
I have no suggestions for this story.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING/STRUCTURE:
The only thing I noticed was that the words "other wise" is actually one word. Otherwise.

Hi papaitalia I am here to give you my thoughts on "Homelessness" , which was highlighted for review by Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers.
OVERALL:
Homelessness is a tragedy that most people have seen in one form or another. The homeless are the invisible citizens who are dismissed and disregarded without a second glance.
WHAT I LIKED:
The subject is a very important one and one that needs to be discussed and dealt with.

The was a quick little story with a nice twist at the end. You used human insecurity alone with not enough information to make Bryce think the worst.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no grammar or spelling mistakes noticed.
OVERALL
A good piece of flash fiction that kept me interested. Well done.
This is an interesting essay. It reads of one person's sacrifice that, in the end, was well worth it. Sometimes life changes our direction, even for a moment, and things we thought were important, really aren't.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no grammar or spelling mistakes noticed.
In poetry, punctuation is a personal choice. While some poems can be left with none, some need a little to give the reader a chance to breathe and to take in what has been written. This poem, while filled with longing, really needs some punctuation.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no spelling or grammar mistakes noticed. I would take note of the difference in line lengths as is seems a bit fractured.
OVERALL
A good attempt at an emotional topic.

Hi jhause13 I am here to give you my thoughts on "Untitled" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers" . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
MY PERSONAL VIEWS
What we have here is just a simple scene of a larger story. It has potential, but given just what is written, it's missing quite a bit. We really need to know more about the characters and have some sort of conflict and resolution stated, even if it's just a beginning, so it can grab the reader's attention.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no grammar or spelling mistakes noticed.
OVERALL
A start of a story with potential.
Thank you for sharing your work and welcome to WDC!
Hi sueBsue I am here to give you my thoughts on "Tiny New Star" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers" . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
MY PERSONAL VIEWS
This is such a very simple, yet true poem. There is so much hiding behind the face we put forth that anything is possible.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
I found no grammar or spelling mistakes, however the lack of consistency in the flow threw me off a bit.
OVERALL
A good poem with a wonderful message of looking deeper.
Thank you for sharing your work and welcome to WDC!
Hi Damien Fury I am here to give you my thoughts on "Last Stand" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers" . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
MY PERSONAL VIEWS
I think you did a really good job on this poem. The meaning and emotion come through nicely.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no spelling or grammar mistakes noticed, however, the different lengths of the lines in the second and third verses was quite distracting. Sometimes, the form of the poem is just as important as the content.
OVERALL
A well written poem that, with a little polishing, could be really great. Well done.
Thank you for sharing your work and welcome to WDC!
I think you make some very truthful points in this article. The hardest thing for a writing to do is to engage their audience in a way in which a deep emotion is first obtained and then held.
Your article is well written and clear and transitions from one point to the next smoothly.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
I found no grammar or spelling mistakes and your use of quoted material was done correctly.
OVERALL
A very informative article that I think all writers, amateurs as well as veteran should read and take to heart.
Hi highhopes I am here to give you my thoughts on "The First Blows" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Newbie Reviewers" . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
MY PERSONAL VIEWS
This is such a heart-wrenching subject. I really think this could be elaborated on and made into something more; something with more impact. While the details are here, the emotion and description is lacking. You tell the reader what happened in a point-blank kind of way, but the 'story' is not there. I want to know feelings and emotions, and details so that I can feel connected to the characters.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
I didn't notice any spelling or grammar errors, however, the format could use a little work. I would suggest taking a look at it and rearranging it some as a few of your lines are cut short.
OVERALL
I think this could be a very powerful piece, it just needs a little work.
Thank you for sharing your work and welcome to WDC!
Hi 🌕 HuntersMoon I am here to give you my thoughts on "Emily's Room" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Review Forum " . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
PERSONAL VIEWS
This is a cute children's fantasy story. I think you did a good job of capturing the moment and getting into Emily's mind. I would have liked a little more 'story' but since this was for a contest I assume there was some sort of word limitation.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
I found no grammar or spelling mistakes in this short story.
OVERALL
This is a story that could definitely be expanded if you chose to do so. It has interesting characters and a good beginning.
Hi Daizy May I am here to give you my thoughts on "Music Makes Me Cry!" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Review Forum " . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
PERSONAL VIEWS
In this piece you have made some wonderful observations. Music touches our soul in many ways. Sometimes it's the tone, or the lyrics, or just the memories of something that happened at the time a song was playing, but music is an emotional experience, no matter what the genre.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
I found no spelling or grammar mistakes here.
OVERALL
An interesting observational piece that a lot of people can relate to.
Hi Harry I am here to give you my thoughts on "Just A Touch Of Spring" , which was listed in "Simply Positive Review Forum " . Please remember this is only one person's opinion and the decision to change your work lies with you.
PERSONAL VIEWS
I really enjoyed this poem. The changing of the seasons, whether figuratively or literally, is a wonderful subject. I think you captured this feeling well and seeing the world change from barren and gray to green and alive is something I miss since I live in the south and the change is less noticeable.
GRAMMAR/SPELLING
There were no spelling or grammar mistakes noticed. The poem had a nice flow and a wonderful feel to it.
