Review of Gothic Angel  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Because I love angels and you've been so good to give me GP's and who wouldn't love a wolf. I'm going to send you a picture of our wolf. He's beautiful.



Did the title fit? Very much so it brought me in to read your poem. I love poetry and like to try to do different types.


Content:
Wonderful.
What really made me feel really good deep in my heart is the last four stanzas. Seeing what I will be going through Tuesday it gave me hope much as my husband saying I will feel God's hand on my arm.

Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Because I have a 32 year old son who is a complusive liar. He can't tell the truth because like you say in your simple poem When they could tell the truth easier because they would know it.



Did the title fit? Very much so. The truth is easier to remember.


Content: Good because short to the point helps more than rambling on about what is truth.

Review of Beggar's Sermon  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon

Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Mostt commonly we mistake these days that the preachers are the ones with expensive shoes and suits on but if you've ever read Ragamuffin gospel you will find a change of heart. I am glad Vincent took the time to remind of what Christ was all about. He did hang out with the rich rabbis in their nice
temples he woiuld be hanging out with the poor in the street. You did such a great job on this poem you should enter it in a contest. It uplifted me when I was so down in the dumps because my son can't stay out of prison. Maybe it isn't my plight in life to tell him where he is to minister to people.


Did the title fit? Very much so. It reminded me of a friend of mine who had a comfortable job at a church with his wife and 2 children. He decided it wasn't enough for his ministry and took it to the streets to really set an example.


Content: Very good. One of the best I've ever read on religion on writing.com.

Rated: E | (3.5)
Why did I pick this piece to review? It was a newbie and I always like to encourage. I can remember when I was one and my writing has improved so much during the years. You will see to because writing is about always rewriting. I still have to rewrite. I't's part of the process.



Did the title fit? It fit but the body of your poem I just got lost in and I read it about 3 times.


Content:
Really needs some work on it so your reader can really understand what's going on.

Review of CHANGED LOVE  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with The Brainstormers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? bECA USE I belong to the group and I think sometimes others prey on people who are weak with mental illness. I know my husband does and I have to get away, 33 years of riding a roller coaster is much too long for anyone. On the honeymoon he called me a different woman's name and the list goes on and on. Said our son was dead.



Did the title fit? Yes. All of us suffer in this group without having someone helping us along. Another thing is like the movie 30 days...we should have to keep a plant alive and have a dog to love us.


Content: Very good. Please pray for me on July 24 at 9 a.m. I have my disability hearing.

I know Biopolar is hard. You just hang in there and you''ll come through fine. This writing.com as a hobby helps us so much.

Review of Obsession  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE NEWBIE REVIEWE...  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (2.5)
Why did I pick this piece to review?
I always like to review Newbies to give them some insight and hoping I can help them without being critical. Your essay had some good content in it but you didn't need to tell the story you need to show it to us. Give us some sights, sounds, eyes, smells (like the smell of the mental hospital). Show us how she had the breakdown, how did she loose the baby. I had no idea about her boyfriend's Mom being a whore. What would that fit in the story iso a little more backround information. When she met him what happened to the relationship. How did she loose the baby. The ending just dropped off. I used to do that to sad stories because I couldn't face what was happening to them.


Did the title fit? No, I wanted to see more obession with the boyfriend. What was he like? A nerd, a music man, just a man, something.


Content: The cont.ent is so good it just needs some work. Always remember writing means, re-writing it again and again. At least you are great with grammer and spelling

Review of The Quilt  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE NEWBIE REVIEWE...  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Because I love quilts and hope to make one someday. My daughter and son's baby quilt they shared is now something you can see through, they are 29 and 32. My daughter at 29 still sleeps with it and I can picture my Great Aunt Essie and Aunt Jean sewing up the embrodrey patches that Mom's best friend did. They are all gone now but not the memory I still had embedded in my mind. The important part of writing to me is to bring the memory back to others and you did this so very well.



Did the title fit? Yes very simply which drew me to your work.


Content: Wonderful, although short very heartfelt.

Review of Kevin 1967-1983  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with SIMPLY POSITIVE GROUP  Open in new Window.
Rated: 18+ | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? I wonder why people are taking their lives so soon but after I started reading it I felt so thankful that this didn't happen to me because I was born in the generation where this was the norm. I graduated in 1972. You can only imagine how wild are bunch was. I felt so sorry for the fact you lost your friend. I lost many. I've now got a drug addict son. He's been in prison more times that I can count. He stole from the Christian camp I worked for and it made me want to commit sucide! What you wrote really brought the drug life come alive. Have you thought about writing a book? If it helped one person it would be worth the world. I live in the south. We took about 45 mushrooms and cooked them down into a quart of Kool-Aid. I drunk
a large coffee cup full!!! I stayed awake for 3 days.

Did the title fit? Yes.


Content: Wonderful, very detailed. Keep writing!

Why did I pick this piece to review?
Because I am interested in gun control. I don't have to agree or disagree on the subject you wrote about only to give you an honest opinion about your writing.


Did the title fit?
Yes, very much so.

Content: Great. I know that some newspapers only allow you to write so many words but you really got your point across in what small numbers of words you had to use. You brought in outside items which draws you into the reading. I would like to see something with more opinion.

Write on!

Review of Relationships  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Because I believe in relationships but I think they are so hard to make work. Sometimes people, even your family doesn't want you to be able to have sucess in your friendships. I like what you wrote because it made me stop and think about how hard it is to try and make relationships work. What I do is not tell people what I am going to do and go by what they do. If they don't think I'm worth it I used to worry about it and now I don't. You did a great job in people this together and pretty much said the same thing I would.



Did the title fit? Yes and I wonder why friendships have to be so hard to maintain.


Content: Great job. There was one mistake word down near the end but it was good it wasnt a worry.

Review of A Day on the Farm  Open in new Window.
Review by Being Diane Author IconMail Icon
In affiliation with The Brainstormers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: ASR | (4.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Because I've been on many farms while living in the south and I love the book Animal Farm. This is really good, with a little more description it would be perfect. I do love the conversation between the chickens. So funny and so believeable.



Did the title fit? Very much so.


Content: I would put a little more content in it to give it something for people to see. Like the shape of the coop. Was there any grass at all growing. How far from the farmer's house? Was there a tree trunk the farmer could use to give the idea of how he was chopping
the heads off? Why was he doing so many in one day? A big Sunday dinner on the ground.

Why did I pick this piece to review? I know like the song by Dionne Warwick sung, "What the world needs now is love sweet love...it's the only thing that there's just to little of! You are a very bright individual and your writing is supreme. Your writing is so perfect I would send this in to one of the contests or look for a magazine which might publish it. It brings in every thought and backs it up with your opinion on how this existence in our world.

Rated: E | (5.0)
Why did I pick this piece to review? Even though it has been since 1972 since I graduated I remember thinking exactly what you wrote. This is great because at a very young age you are writing what the world experiences in school. You wonder where the time went while you are wishing you were 16, then wishing for 18, and then 21!



Did the title fit? Very much so. PERFECT!


Content: Surprising even though your poem was very short it really touch the human heart.

Extra: I'm 57, don't waste time on relationships that don't work. Keep writing don't let anything get in your way. Buy every book you can on writing and read every genre' you can get your hands on....you have time and it is short!

This is absolutly beautiful. I love the color and the way you have incorporated the great items of the Native American People of which I am a part of and you should if you don't already make c-notes for us to send. I like the story page and have begun to put things on there but don't know if it's quite what they're looking for and your picture takes the guess work out of story telling.
Keep doing the art work. WONDERFUL!

What made me what to review this piece: I am drawn to what others think love is because it is such a powerful feeling. I would love for someone to. (Hint) start a contest on writing about love and their feelings but you would come out winning hands up. I like to think women know alot more about love if they are not fed the story of the Knight coming to rescue the princess. My daughteer thinks I've ruin the fairy tell by telling her their is no happyily ever after. I tell young folks listen to those vows they are real. I've been in love twice and I have been in love with love the last meaning the person loving me so strongly that it felt good.



How it made me feel: I liked hearing your opinions on love. It gave me the idea to write on what love has meant in my life.



Content: You covered it all, wolf!


Mistakes: None you are a great writer.

Good job linking them together.

I stopped by for the contest and decided to look around and to my delightful surprise I found this piece of writing. Great. I even tried this myself and decided writing outside my regular genres can only help me in showing myself how I can expand my talent. What you wrote really took some imagination unless you come by it naturally.



It held my attention so well. I didn't get borned and just love the great writing.


Content: Great keep it up!

Rated: E | (4.0)
Good poem and I loved the way it flowed and made me use all of my senses in it. I love flowers and when you look closely at them you'll see all kind of things. I like the way you dedicated it to your wife. That's better than getting flowers to receive a poem from the heart.

Keep writing you certainly have the talent to bring out the subject.

Sad but good in knowing there is life after death. I've spent many times in the cemetaries.

I enjoy reviewing as much as I like writing on writing.com. I've been a member for quite some time now and the more I write reviews the more I can see how my own writing needs to improve and a big plus is I am getting more experience as a writer. The biggest plus is getting to read different genre' in writing sometimes something I wouldn't necessary go out and buy to read. I find the longer I do this the more ground I cover in the world whether it is fantasy, fiction, non-fiction it is always a pleasure to review.

Thanks as always for the gift points. I share them with others that I review and to groups who award members who can't afford memberships. I''ve had to ask for help before and I've never been turned down.

What made me what to review this piece: I was checking out the newsletter and came across this and it is a controverial topic. I have heard some of the most hateful things said of gays and my psychairtrist is gay. He saved my life many times and in my opinion he should have been given the same rightso as married people. If God is love we are suppose to show our love for them as well as others. I believe everyone is praying to the same God they just don't k!now it



How it made me feel:
Very sad and angry also because a lot this bulleying is caused by this and no one deserves it.
