Disclaimer:

I may suggest changes in my review. This is not meant as 'serious' literary criticism (I’m no expert). It's merely my record of the ‘bumps’ I encounter as I travel through your words. If I'm thrown by a typo, an awkward word, or a line that doesn't scan, then it's likely that others will be as well. My intent in giving a review is to applaud your work and maybe help you to improve it. A review is merely another reference to consider. If the suggestions prove useful, then use them. If I ‘just don’t get it’, then by all means ignore me!


I found this piece on Read & Review and enjoyed it a lot. It's a fun story with a good message. The celebration of 23 is well done. The characters are engaging, and I was rooting for Woody to find his Wilma. The happily ever after ending is appropriate and provided a smile.

I also picked a couple of nits just for you! *Smile*

In general, I'd suggest more white space and the font is small for my eyes. You might try a linespace of 1.4.

And I offer these suggestions for your consideration:

he tirelessly worked on a conjured (conjuring?) spell,

The clock struck midnight, and with a resolute heart, he began the conjured (conjuring?) spell.

He traversed through surreal landscapes, encountering mystical creatures and solving enigmatic puzzles

Overall, a good read.


Keep writing!
