Review of The stork with a mask

First and foremost, thank you for sharing your work .I am doing this review to celebrate your anniversary as a meber of WDC. I am not an expert reviewer. I am just another writer, but I know it is the reviews that help us to perfect our craft. My opinions are just that; my opinions.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:
While this is writen as prose in story format I feel it is just a poem what needs some massage and tender care to escape these confines for something better. so take your structure and revise it to a poetry format and I am sure you will be pleased with the result.

PLOT & CHARACTERS:
A single voice that wails alone looking for more.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:
Like i said before, turn it into a poem.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Keep writing and happy anniversary.

Review of A Friday Night surprise

First and foremost, thank you for sharing your work . I am not an expert reviewer. I am just another writer, but I know it is the reviews that help us to perfect our craft. My opinions are just that; my opinions.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:
This story does not meet the expectations. The sentence structure is poor and many sentences just run on and on jumping from one thought to another. One thought per sentence. Also use a larger font as this is extremely hard to read.

PLOT & CHARACTERS:
Jake and Izzy seem unrealistic characters. They are too sexual in their actions. The sexual action seems a but absurd.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:
You wrote "the joke was that if you could not pull then then you were a failure and a joke." This sentence seems meaningless.
Spelling "no cusomers were in the shop" There were many others. Please take time to edit your work.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
This story needs work. So get to it.

Review of Upon the Beach

I selected your story/poem to be reviewed by me for the sharing of
others work on WDC. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy and review your work. The
feedback is meant only to encourage and inspire you to continue your talent. All
suggestions are that alone and formed from my opinion. I am not a professional, just a
lover of reading and writing.


Narrative & Dialogue:
While the story has some great descriptive passages in the opening paragraph, it quickly begins to fail as a continued narrative. The only dialogue appears at the very end of the story and does nothing to add to the story .


Form & Flow:
Your story has a lot of good starters. The problem is they don't always seem to connect. It seems like you are trying to make each sentence a stand alone story, Make some of your sentences short and more concise. Variety helps with the flow. The sexual statements need to reviewed. I suggest you read some of the sentences aloud. I think when you do this you will see what I mean.


Imagery & Emotion:
The sex action is there but where is the passion that should go with it?


Suggestions & Typos:
There are a large amount of typos. Almost too many to mention. You need to use a spell check program or if you are using one then select a better one. Some of the spelling errors are "extreemly, peircing, uncasping, and roming"]


Overall Thoughts & Rating:
I give you a 3.0 rating for this piece of work. It is currently just average. However if you correct the spelling and grammer and make your story more readable you can certainly up that score to a 4.0 or more. Thank you for sharing your work and talent.{c}

Review of The cab

I selected your story/poem to be reviewed by me because this is your anniversary
of joining WDC. Thank you for allowing me to enjoy and review your work. The
feedback is meant only to encourage and inspire you to continue your talent. All
suggestions are that alone and formed from my opinion. I am not a professional, just a
lover of reading and writing.


Narrative & Dialogue:
You have done a good job with this area of your writing in such a short story
Since the story is mostly in dialogue it is often har to keep it flowing. Add to this the type of
conversation you might have in a cab. Well done with the dialogue.


Form & Flow:
Your story was easy to follow and had no lag whatsoever from beginning to
finish.


Imagery & Emotion:
In the imagery area there was limited description. This could have turned this simple story into something more substantial.

The emotion that the young man expresses are not carried through by the cabbie but it does affect him. It brought a smile to my face,


Suggestions & Typos:
I saw no grammatical or spelling errors in this story


Overall Thoughts & Rating:
I give you a 4.0 rating for this piece of work. Thank you for sharing your work and
talent.{c}

First and foremost, thank you for sharing your work . I am not an expert reviewer. I am just another writer, but I know it is the reviews that help us to perfect our craft. My opinions are just that; my opinions.

OVERALL IMPRESSIONS:
The beginning of the story is fine and rates very high. Once the weapons are gone and the fighting is over the story loses its creditability. I was waiting for them to exchange cell phone numbers. the last portion of the story needs more work.

PLOT & CHARACTERS:
Two Characters are well described and presented but the plot wears thin.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:
Keep the characters in their character and not converting them to a pair of teenagers.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Keep the original plot and fix the ending,

Well that old premise and length of skirt is gone. Have you seen Catholic school girls uniforms lately. It's a good story about women choosing for themselves which other than the dictates of fashion I believe women do today.

Nancy shows up in shorter skirt, It is denounced but the next day all the other are as short.

SUGGESTIONS/EDITS:
None, It seems well edited.
