Hi Mastiff Author IconMail Icon,

I'm glad I read this work of yours. It is my pleasure to both read and comment on your work "The Eagles Misunderstood Fanatics" Open in new Window.. This story was chosen for review because it was the one posted before mine for Rising Stars' "I Write in 2019" Open in new Window..

These are just one person's opinions; always remember only you know what is best for your story. I've read and commented on your work as I would try to read my own. If I didn't respond to it quite the way you hope, perhaps you will find something useful in the feedback or forget about it - it's all up to you. It's your story.

Here's what I *Heart* best about "The Eagles Misunderstood Fanatics" Open in new Window. -
It's full of insider cultural references that those who get it would totally get it. Unfortunately being neither American nor a baseball fan, most of them went way over my head. I'm sure it just needs the right audience though.

*BoxCheckB* 1) Plot:
Um well, this isn't a story per se, so there is actually no plot to comment on.

*BoxCheckB* )2) Characterization:
Hmm, the narrator (assumed to be the writer) certainly has a voice. Die-hard Eagles fan, or is it fanatic? And as claimed, he certainly knows his Eagles history well.

*BoxCheckB* 3) Voice/Style:
This is the feel of a blog or opinion piece from the first-person point-of-view of a fan.

*BoxCheckB* 5) Grammar & Diction:
I noted no mistakes at all. This is always a sign of good writing and vetting.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I'm no expert on flash fiction so I'm not exactly sure whether this is considered one. It certainly meets the word count criteria but I wonder if it needs to be historical fiction or simply contain historical information to qualify. In any case, I hope your entry does well for the contest!

Thanks for a great read!
