| As a reviewer of your work, I will first look for identification in what you are presenting. When a reader can truly identify with the writer, emotion sets in and the story becomes a part of the reader as well as the writer. |
| While I consider myself apt enough to provide decent, kind feedback, I'm not the sort of person to laud a man's writings. Instead, I seek to find smaller, more intricate points of interest within their writings so that I might offer suggestions and feedback so that they might better aid the flow of their work. |
| I like to say how I relate to an item. Spelling and grammar are less important. |

I enjoy reviewing and try to be as honest as possible. I look for specific things such as technical merit, flow and lyrical quality in poems, creativity, tone, and mood. Though I can be a tough critic, I strive to encourage writers to grow and challenge themselves. I feel that it is through constructive criticism that we grow as writers. I strive to give the writer feedback on the overall impact of the piece. I am the host and judge of the "Shadows and Light Poetry Contest"  and co-host of the "Roots & Wings Contest" |

| Casual for the most part. I will point out errors I see and offer suggested corrections. I like to focus on the content and formatting of the item. I love providing helpful comments and feedback that may improve the item if acted on. |
| I will give an honest opinion of how I feel about the story and what I think works and doesn't work. I'll remark on everything good that I see and I'll try to find at least one or two things the author can improve on. |
| Friends, 1. I always like to look at the positive aspects of the story I am reviewing and highlight them. 2. This is because I firmly believe in the principle, "The best building is that building which stands on the strongest foundation." 3. And I believe that the strongest foundation, in the case of a story, is that of appreciation and gratitude for its author. Essayist |
| Disclaimer: I am not good at remembering to do requested reviews. Often I have busy things going on with work and my own novels, so sorry if I decline or don't remember to do a review in the short time given. Just a warning. When I review: Long. Depending on the type of story and reason for review I tend to get anywhere from 4,000 characters to on the rare occasion over 10,000. I will make overall comments, technical points and even offer sources when necessary but a lot is dependent on what I'm reviewing. I can even do a full edit but that's take a lot of niceness and time. |
| When I review something, I look for grammar and it's content. I can say what you miss or what you need. |
| I like to give friendly advice that I hope will help, not harm. |
| I tend to try and be fairly succinct, I have a deep love for verbose and interesting language, taking large preference to poetry. If you want some critique or suggestion on such, I'd be happy to help! |
| I'm honest and supportive, but I will give advice about things I THINK would help beef up your writing (up to my standards, which aren't very high). |
| I start with the reader experience - did the story pull me in and keep me engaged? From there, I'll dig into what worked and what didn't, focusing on the elements that impacted my experience: character motivation, pacing, whether the emotional beats landed. I use 5 key questions to structure my feedback when needed, but my goal is always to help writers see their story through a reader's eyes. I don't edit for grammar or spelling, but I'll flag it if it pulls me out of the story. |
| In a single word, thorough. I will turn your piece upside down, shake the change out of its pockets and look at even the most minute details. I can be technical but will do so when emphasizing a larger point about the piece as a whole. |
| Casual. More my opinion than, say, most reviewers. |
| I'll give a quick summary of your item. Afterwards, I'll talk about your characters, any Spelling or Grammar issues, and perhaps suggest some things, like adding the item to a Genre that it would fit into. |
