*BalloonR* Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome Wagon! *BalloonR*


Noticing Newbies Newsletters 09-05-2012, features your piece.
An appropriately rated item, there is such a depiction of a city gone mad and the main characters trek through that city.
Form and structure are an excellent foundation.
Flow is choppy due only to the cringing the reader does as he/she reads what transpires in the alleyway.
Pace is rapid enough, and free of grammatical snafu's making for a decent reading endeavor.
Emotional ties that bind are numerous and you are encouraged to write on in the WdC!

I liked the flow of this piece. It was filled with emotionally charged imagery that kept this readers attention all the way through. Well done with the imagery. Serves your story well.
The pace is decidedly rapid as the reader feels the desire to move on felt in the characters marching about on their way to who knows where in phobic city.
Form and structure are superb. The short sentences along the way keeps the reader on the edge of his/her seat, in anticipation of what's coming next.
One suggestion for improvement in addressed below, otherwise your piece is a highly readable and enjoyable featured item in the Newsletter.

*BalloonR* Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome Wagon! *BalloonR*

Found your piece in the Noticing Newbies Newsletter 09-05-2012.
A very endearing piece and worthy of featuring in a newsletter that focuses on those new to the WdC.
Form and structure are solid foundations.
Flow is pristine with but a minor hiccup to be pointed out later.
Pace is a pleasant medium, peppered with such emotionally endearing imagery. The reader is caught up in the fun that is obviously going on and the rise of the author's observational skills. Well done!
One minor suggestion for improvement does no damage to the flow but is clear enough to cause the reader to hesitate for a moment.
Line 2: "listen" might be better as "listening".

A heart breaking poem about the plight of the American Dream v/s the American Reality.

Prosaic scheme is appropriate.
Flow is excellent.
Pace is unhurried.
Emotional ties that bind are despair, and a deep sense of loss.
Grammatically snafu free, no suggestions for improvement do you need.

A good presentation of what's happening in the group.
Membership list with 9 pages = one big group.
Leadership has to be quite active to keep it going smoothly.
Keep praying Copenator's Crew will become more alive and still praise the Lord for 2 active reviewers (including me).
It's encouraging to see a group investing in the art of reviewing.
It is an integral part of the WdC and what makes it fun for me.

Good tribute to Neil Armstorng.
Our world has lost a legendary astronaut and man.
There is soul to your haiku.
Form is adherent to the syllabic criteria.
The moon is the subject.
The loss is the theme.
The emotional tie that binds is sadness.
One suggestion for improvement would be to change "envelopes" to envelops.
As in the darkness envelops the sky.
It's not being stuffed in an envelope. It' is being covered over by darkness.
