The Writing.Com members below are accepting review requests and ready to review your item! Peruse the list, check out members' review styles and request a review from anyone who seems like a good fit for your item.
I will be honest at all times - if there's something wrong with your piece, please don't be offended when I point it out. However, I will also give useful praise and constructive tips to help your word strike a chord!
My reviewing style varies. I may do a little edit if possible or pinpoint what I think is incorrect. My review is merely base on what I feel about your piece. If I enjoy it, I say it. If not, I tell you why I'm not.
I often do reviews on all Poetry Items- regardless of the genres, styles and the way it was written. However if you like, you can request a short story, chapter not the entire book or novel, articles and essays, etc.
I look for interesting stories. I do not guage another author because of differences in style (from my own). I look for spacing, grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc.
I also look for incongruity. For instance: "It was a cold night with no fire to warm ourselves." And then, starting the next paragraph: "The next morning we put out the fire and left on our horses."
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 try to find the WOW-factor in your writing. No in-depth analysis, just my thoughts.

I'm honest but constructive. I'll explain why I give the number of stars I give and what you could do to improve that. I do fix grammar as well as look at style, emotional triggers, characters, and other things like that. I'll get back to you with a full review in a couple of days or so after the request, depending on the length of the item.
I will write a detailed review of your item that goes into detail about the positives and negatives of your item. I color code each section so everything is easy to see once you view your review.
I tend to focus on the technical aspects of a piece of writing, looking at the language, flow, style and punctuation.
I tend not to spend too much time on complimenting what works well.
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.
Above all things, I believe reviews should be honest. I think that one brutally honest review can do more good than 100 coddling, everything-is-perfect reviews. I will never be mean (it's unprofessional) but if you're really serious about making your work better, I'll be happy to help.
My reviews are intended to be thorough and honest, going over the plot's argument and consistency, its originality, the use of incorrect and/or inconvenient grammar, the characters' arc and consistency, and the story's pace.
I leave the writer's personal writing style out of the rating.
I aim to enable communication with the writer via email previous to publishing the review to inform them of my opinion on their writing. If needed or requested, especially when the review suggests to be negative, I may not publish it, but give the feedback to the writer.
I like to be analytical in my reviewing. The most interesting pieces of writing often work on a number of different levels, and so I try to consider multiple perspectives when informing the author of what I liked or disliked about their piece. For this reason, I don't get along very well with templates, as I find they turn the whole process into something very clinical! You can expect my reviews to be a fluid, tailored discussion of your individual work.
