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.
I'm good at...
Speed Reading/reviewing- 1000 word story won't even take me five minutes to read, and you'll get a review within 10 minutes of me reading it. As it is, my reviews are usually around 300 Characters- minus my Review Sig. However, sometimes they'll reach the 1,000 Character mark. Depends on the Story/item. *Bigsmile*
Favorite Genres
Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Animal
Least Favorite Genres
Can't think of any I don't like.
Favorite Item Types
I like them all.
Least Favorite Item Types
I've yet to not like any item types. Of course, images can be tricky- hard to correct Spelling and Grammar on those. *Bigsmile*
I will not review...
Interactives that don't have an actual story started - Give me some meat to eat there before you ask me to look at it, with at least one thread being at least 10 chapters long, and not just choices that aren't even developed, preferably written by your own hand. Books - well, not through a Review Request page anyways, as I'd would have to review the book itself and not the Chapter, in order to get paid, but I will review them if you ask me in an email. Anything that doesn't allow reviews. *Bigsmile*

Review of Complex Numbers  
for entry "In a Red Hood
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
Ah, the truth about Fairy Tails. Something that makes folks wonder, and about how the lessons seem to change depending upon the age the story is set in. After all, folks change, so perhaps the lessons should as well. Sometimes the story gets changed with the times as well.

Thoughts
An interesting take on the stories told in the past.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any issues with spelling or grammar.

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy!

You have the start of a story where, it looks like, at a certain age, children go through a ritual to see if they can receive the ability to use magic. Among these children is the son of a noble family, who can't wait until they can use magic.

Characters
The characters seem interesting. Hope to know more about them.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any issues with spelling or grammar, but you might want some space between paragraphs.

So, you're some farmboy, or farmgirl, who wants to be a Hero? Well, whoop-de-do. Been around the block a time or two, with others before. Let's just hope you're not the One Last Hope! After all, there's plenty of Heroes out there - can you live up to the stories, or will you be forgotten?

Characters
Plenty of crazy characters.

Spelling and Grammar
There's some spelling and grammar issues here and there, but those can be fixed.

Thoughts
Plenty of crazy adventures, and plenty more to come. I have enjoyed adding to them.

An interesting Poll asking what point of view they like to use when it comes to writing. In my opinion, that all depends on what kind of story one is writing. Is the story something along the lines of one telling about their day "I did..."? Is is about what "You" are doing? Or is this about what "Bob" is doing? In any case, all can be fun.

Thoughts
A nice poll to do.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any issues with spelling or grammar.

Suggestion
Instead of using the "Other" Genre, try the "Opinion" genre.

You have a world full of animal-like people with various levels of technology. You seem to be focused on an owl soldier who serves a rat king as a guard of some sort. Kind of makes one wonder about the history of this world.

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy.

You have an idea about what it would be like to have the Second Coming of Jesus Christ occur and what they'd look like. An interesting take on the idea.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any issues with spelling or grammar.

Suggestions
You have a bit of a block here. Sometimes a few four-to-five-sentence paragraphs can make things easier to read.

Well, this is an interesting story. You've got a couple of siblings trying to figure out a way to make money so that their home doesn't get foreclosed on. When they respond to a strange newspaper add, things get strange when they get sucked into some sort of game, and have to compete against other teams of siblings.

I stumbled across this under the Online Authors, although what really caught my attention was the name in the title - especially since my own username ought to give most a very good clue as to why it drew my eye...

What you have is a short story about a paranormal investigator, who has been hired to check out a collage. While there, he comes across a powerful entity that is causing some serious troubles.

Well, this is the start of what looks to be an interesting story. You have a young man, who seems to have been on his own for quite some time, except for the voices in his head. However, it seems that the situation is more than it appears to be. Might look at more.

This is an interesting poll about a person's favorite type of writing. Personally, I like all types, but my favorite is the Interactive, as you can get so many stories, all from a common origin. After all, start the Main Character off at a crossroads, and here's a few possibilities:

Heads to the North: The MC become the King of a great and powerful nation, with plenty of queens to enjoy the company of.

Heads to the South: The MC becomes a vicious and brutal Bandit Warlord with a huge price on his head, among other things.

Heads to the East: The MC gets captured by a dragon, and is forced to be its slave, or else they become lunch.

Heads to the West: They become a farmer, taxed by the King, robbed by the Bandit Warlord, and terrorized by the dragon.

Undecided: Has an encounter with a guy that has a crossbow - The End.

Plenty of fun.

Haven't encountered a poll like this.

Well, this is an interesting In & Out, especially if one likes to add to Interactives. Here is a place where one can learn and share tips for writing additions to those stories that take so many twists and turns, and always create a new story, despite sharing the same originating point as another. Worth looking at.

Thoughts
Very original.

You have what looks to be the start of an interesting story. You have a woman who, for whatever reason, doesn't like non-human animals, who is creating non-human soldiers in order to fight a robotic enemy. However, an incident soon forces her to work with one of her creations, in order to survive.

The characters look interesting, but I'd like to know more about them.

This is an interesting take on the whole "Jack and the Beanstalk" - type story. You have a young woman who climbed a large beanstalk, only to encounter a friendly giant. However, things aren't so easy, especially after she encounters another giant, who isn't so friendly.

Characters
The characters are interesting, but to be honest, the giants could use names, at the very least.

Spelling and Grammar
I don't see any issues with spelling or grammar, but, instead of saying "(expletive deleted)", you could settle for a mild swear word, or perhaps bump it up to 18+ for somewhat stronger swear words.

Well, this is a cute story. You have the three typical Fantasy/Adventure classes, the Warrior, the Wizard, and the Archer, all involved in a real wreck of a story, as it turns out that some peoples' plans for the weekend get ruined, for one reason or another. More than a few good laughs here.

This is a Review you Requested. Enjoy.

An interesting short story. You have what looks to be a Post-Battle situation, where, after the battle has been done, the surviving fighters are reflecting upon what they did, and are even unsure of themselves. The one offers their support to the other, to try to help them. Interesting. Wouldn't mind knowing more.

What a coincidence - I happen to have this same image in my portfolio - different text, but still - nice to have a chance to look at the other one after soo many years. *Laugh*

(In fact, for those of you reading this review out there, me and Megan both placed bids on this image during an auction in October 2012 (if my date's correct), and I think we tried to outbid the other, until she bought it outright. Still, she was nice enough to buy a copy for me.)

Then again, when one shares similar tastes, it's not unheard of for a good bidding war to occur. *BigSmile*

Well, this is an interesting item. You have a young man who wore a kilt as part of his National Heritage, but gets in trouble at school as a result.
