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 non-fiction piece on Read & Review. The author gives a brief account of the Baha'i Faith coming to America. The information is interesting and presented clearly. I don't see any problems with spelling or grammar, but I would suggest a larger font.

I think this piece would benefit from another paragraph (or maybe three) to give the reader a sense of why this historical event is so important to the author. What impact does it have on their life. Also, I think The Prayer for America should be included instead of merely being referenced. As a daily practice, it should be given more emphasis to help the reader better understand Baha'i.

And here's a nit for your consideration:

Those 85 days were not consecutive, but interspaced (interspersed?) between trips to other parts of the United States and Canada.


Keep writing!
