Review of Alchemist I  Open in new Window.

Review by WakeUpAndLive


Hi Adherennium Author Icon,

I found your poem quite by accident. Or was it? You clicked on something I wrote on the Newsfeed; I was curious and looked at your port.

Wow, what style, imagery, and substance, all in this long freestyle verse. It blew me away! No kidding, really.

It reminded me of Self-Portrait in a Convex Mirror by John Ashbery. I discovered that poet in a small bookshop somewhere in the middle of nowhere in England, whilst on holiday. You are here right under our nose; how I love Writing.com.

Word choice is surprising, clear, and full of beautiful alliterations. The process of a poet writing, searching, finding, and transforming unspeakable matter into words. You are the alchemist, and I am thrilled to read this gem of a poem. Thank you for that!

Write on,

Review by WakeUpAndLive


Hi Princess Megan Rose Author Icon,

As I reviewed you one year ago for the last time, I thought it best to try one of your stories again, and I found one that hasn't been reviewed or rated yet.

It's an older piece which is relevant because you wrote it at the beginning of your Jane Austen addiction. You mentioned that you just discovered Jane Austen and had read only a few stories of her. LOL. As you are known at WdC for your knowledge and admiration of Jane Austen, it's refreshing to read you started liking her work just then.

After sniffing out your port a little bit, I think I will try rereading Jane Austen. I've read Pride and Prejudice, and I tried Emma, but that is as far as it went. I am glad you mentioned a Barnes and Nobles edition with her work in it. I think I am going to look for that one myself.

When I have read more of her, I will come back and review some more of your work. It is essential to have read her, so I'll know what I am talking about.

Till later, keep on writing about Jane Austen. You're the expert.

Kind Regards,

Hi 🌖 HuntersMoon Author Icon,

I found this gem in the Read & Review Section. Although Summer is almost gone and we didn't have much of a Spring here in the Netherlands I had to review your ode to Spring.

Funny how you describe the aches of an allergy to pollen. I bet it is a burden on many every single year. To start this poem with a sneeze is hilarious!

The five quatrains have all their unique flow. Rhyme and rhythm are pleasant to the ears. I only experienced a hiccup in the last two sentences.

The description of Nature and its jewels are very much to my taste.
I loved reading it and it was a joy to review.

This little poem made my day. As always you capture the essence of your topic to a tee. Bravo!

Keep on writing (and reacting on Newsfeed). You always manage to make me smile.

Watch where you are going

Hi, sindbad Author Icon
I am reviewing these puns as part of "Quarantine corner. Closed. " Open in new Window. [E].

I already gave you an MB for this item because I loved it so much.

I thought at the time, and still think today that your puns are great. They cover the pandemic and everything related to COVID-19 with such taste, I find it therefore easy to laugh out loud despite the gravity of the subject.

That balance of being funny but not tasteless or cruel is very difficult to find, but you managed to do so. I thank you for it. It makes the days in this pandemic a tiny winy lighter. That in itself is admirable.

I hope you are able to make more jokes, you are so good at it.

Keep writing and stay safe out there!

Watch where you are going

Hi, Richard ~ Looking for Luck! Author Icon The final review of your package deal winning in an auction.

Wow, what a great and mysterious tale this is. Truely enjoyable from first to last line, although I had to reread the ending several times before I could grasp a meaning to it.

Perhaps that's because the main character turned into some kind of enlightened druid-type of person, exalted about what had happened to him, exalted about the witch who turned into the cat he held on his lap. Exalted about finding his family's destination through the trinkets that found their legitimate place? Or something...

Your writing style is great, pace and rhythm are very pleasant. Plot and characterization very well developed. I loved this short story.

Thanks for the trinkets in your portfolio,

Thanks for sharing this story.

Hi, 🌖 HuntersMoon Author Icon, I found this poem in the R&R section.

Wow, how beautiful romantic love is felt through the heart of an aging poet. I adore your capability to create such a simple but profoundly deep ode to the one you love. It must be one of the best things ever in life, to have lived and loved this way.

I wished I had the opportunity to create such a poem, but alas I am not in the position to do so. No envy here, but deep respect that you are able to enjoy a loving life the way you obviously did.

A sonnet is a great way of expressing those feelings. You are a master at it.

Thank you so much for sharing. I enjoyed reading it.

Koi & Name Handle

Hi, Words Whirling 'Round Author Icon

I found this beautiful, beautiful poem in the R&R section.

There is not much I can say other than this poem grabbed me and didn't let go. It is so soft yet outspoken, philosophical yet mundane and it has a real good feel about it.

I was puzzled if there was a system behind this poem, with aaaaa,bbcda,eeeea,ffgfa. I could say it looked a bit like a Whyquain, a new poetry form that answers some questions by monorhyme iambic, tetrameter lines, but again that was not it. So, I am at a loss here. You probably just invented this poem all by yourself. Good for you, because the result is lovely. Especially with that repeating last line.

It is very well crafted and has a good rhyme and rhythm. All in all a great poem. Thanks for sharing.

Hi, Pernell Rogers Author Icon,

*Bats* *Bats* *Bats*

Here is your judge from the dungeons of SCREAMS!!! with a short review of "Time to Wake Up!" Open in new Window. [13+]. Congratulations on your win, well deserved!

This is a really good entertaining and chilling story of a dream of a burial, or a burial, or a dream of a dream of a burial. Very spooky indeed. You managed to make it extra creepy with all the eerie sounds used. It had me captivated from beginning to end. And such brevity, very well done in only 433 words.

Thanks for sharing this short story, take care, and stay safe!

Hi, Elby Wordsmith Author Icon,

I found your verse at your request.

So, you are the last romantic idealist left at the edges of the realm of writing.com? I don't think so, there must be more poets like you craving for those times when Romanticism with horror, passion, and awe, especially when experienced in the face of nature’s sublime landscape, offered an artistic antidote to the perceived disconnect from spirituality.

These are trying times indeed! But your poem is there to the rescue from an idealistic point of view where the aim of education is to discover and develop each individual's abilities and full moral excellence in order to better serve society.

You will never accept the situation as is, but will always look beyond its borders.

That is admirable and not the work of a mad romantic, you are selling yourself short. Pathetic as it may be: you seek solutions for the world we're living in today with higher standards than practiced in the here and now of realism. And you can know given your age.

An old poet seeking others to join him in his quest for more romanticism and idealism. How hopeful is that?

One thing to add: When romanticism and idealism are overwhelmed/ When people take it as fact /Then humanity will end. I would change the "when" in the second line into "and" to make your point stronger and easier to understand.

When romanticism and idealism are overwhelmed/ And people take it as fact /Then humanity will end

Thanks for sharing. Keep safe, and enjoy writing!

Review of The Right Path  Open in new Window.

** Image ID #2233645 Unavailable **

Hi, Jacky Author Icon

I found this flash fiction from 2018 in the R&R section.

What a sympathetic story this is. I had to chuckle several times. First I saw it coming that your pillow should hit the fan and all the feathers came out: what a great view of your bedroom; like a whirling wind of tiny little feathers. As in a fairytale. Nice description.

Then your mother... hilarious as she stormed into your bedroom, all willing to help out like mothers want to... seeing the mess in your bedroom and fainting.

The fainting ties it up with your first lines about the way your parents acted in your childhood on the subject of bedmaking.

But, good for you; you are an adult now and can make your own decisions on what to do in life. That sure feels like the right path to me!

A grabbing little tale and I noticed that brevity is your strong point. Chapeau! you are economical with words but you chose them carefully. The result is very funny indeed. *Bigsmile*

Thanks for sharing, stay safe!

Hi,Jeff Author Icon, I found your 99 words on the R&R page.

It reminded me of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Very beautiful indeed. The pirates face difficulties at sea and ultimately death?

“Alone, alone, all, all alone,
Alone on a wide wide sea!
And never a saint took pity on
My soul in agony.” (Coleridge)

You captured the agony of the pirate very well. And it only took you 99 words. It could easily pass as a story-poem. Very admirable! Thanks for sharing.

Hi, drboris Author Icon I read your story on the R&R section of the site. Since I watched Bram Stoker's Dracula a long time ago I wanted to get reacquainted with the story. And boy, you didn't disappoint. What a great movie review this is.

You managed to get in all the relevant information, hustle it into a story and come out on top.

I loved reading all the details and it brought back the memory of the movie in a flush. Right in!

I can't remember if Dracula looked like Glenn Close, but I indeed suggest no touring down Montana. That's apparently where she lives. You could easily be driven from the road down there by a spook. Lol.

Anyway, thanks for sharing. Keep on writing (movie reviews) and take care and stay safe!

Hi, Shaziane Author Icon,

I found this beautiful outcry ad random.

It is a free verse poem on helplessness, but I thought that not be the case. This poet is not helpless! The writer/poet has found words to express this feeling and reflect on it aka put it into words and put it out there into the world for everybody to read and review.

Wow, that's strength, that's very powerful. So, I salute you on this effort to make sense of experiences and feelings. You did an excellent job.

Sometimes Life is cruel, and it's our job to make sense of it the best we can. Thank you for sharing, keep on writing!!

A nice little poem of one of the tales where it all began. In the garden of Eden. There was no snake in your version, I liked that. Too bad she took a bite, disastrous consequences, so I'm told.

Lovely cadence, very subdued. Your poem had a good vibe to it. Thanks for sharing this beautiful quatrain poem. I liked it very much.

Hi HollyMerry Author Icon
I found your short story on the Read & Review Page. I take it this is for a contest? As a dog owner myself, I was keen to read on.

What a lovely story and what a birthday for this dash hound. I liked it very much. I was very surprised to hear that Merry has a wheelchair attached to her back legs. I've seen that once on television and I was amazed by the fact that dogs can still play, walk, run and enjoy themselves despite their handicap.

She has a good owner, that's for sure, celebrating her birthday the way she did.

The write has a nice flow, grammar is impeccable and the vibe is good.

Nothing more to add than Welcome to Writing.Com. I hope you learn to love this site as much as I do. Thanks for sharing, Write on!

Hi Robert Waltz Author Icon
I was visiting your portfolio and I am so glad I did. Those Funnies are really funny! Chapeau. I had to chuckle a lot, so, I am enjoying myself on a Saturday night. Thanks for that.
I read The Wish (2004), The Worst Hangover (2009), and First Date (2006). They were all hilarious in a really good way. Writing stuff that's really funny is very hard to do, you being able to pull it off is great.

I am going to read further but not before letting you know you made my day. *Bigsmile*

Hi, SPACE COBWEBS @ 18! Author Icon

I found this story in your portfolio and thought to give it a look.

A nice short story with a gruesome ending. It started out innocently enough with thoughts of a husband that acted distant in the morning. Soon the mayhem started with the delivery boy with the shotgun approaching. Terrible scene, nicely written. Sadly, these things seem to happen in real life as well. Go figure to be that bystander and victim!

I really liked the way you described her trivial thoughts just as she died: about her clothing. In light of what happened next, these are so unimportant. But hey, you never know what Life has in store for you.

Good morning Angus Author Icon,

I found this little gem from some years ago in the Read & Review Section and since I didn't review your work in a while I decided to have a good look.

What a splendid little tale this is. No horror this time, but Sfi, but with great suspense in it. You managed to describe a town with people in it in such few words, admirable. I loved it! Good descriptions, great flow, and pace, and although they are mentioned very briefly, your characters have a real feel to them. Great job.

The only thing I have to mention is that I didn't grasp your ending. The deja-vu of Terry looking at the sky at the vanishing UFO? What had that to do with the story? Who was he/she and what else had he/she been seeing?

Other than that... a lovely start to my Saturday morning. Thank you for sharing.

Hi lezismore-moreislez Author Icon, I found your writing at the newsfeed. Hopefully, this review will find you in good spirits. *Delight*

On Title/Subject
Good title and nice picture, so I knew Loretta was a dog.

General impressions
Nice little tale about an alien dog abduction. As a dog owner and lover of the canine species I was tempted to read and review this short story. I loved reading about the main character's suspicion that his golden retriever was no longer his good old Loretta but replaced by an alien. I sometimes wonder about dogs myself, what species are they...? Thought it real funny you came up with this abduction.


Favorite Parts
Concerned for Loretta’s safety I tried to get up but found that I had become paralyzed. My attempts to verbally warn her were also in vane. They continued chanting and dancing for sometime then joined hands and formed a circle around the couch. A blinding light filled the livingroom then slowly dimmed then vanished. Loretta and the creatures were gone!


Good description of what happened with the dog. I could see it happening in front of my eyes.

Suggestions
In the first line it is not clear that Loretta is a dog. Perhaps you could add that to the name: my dog Loretta?

Final thoughts
Nice little story. Believable and the way it is told, very serious. I thought it was funny at times. The paranoia is real. Or is the dog-owner suffering from delusions? Because this is told in a blog-like manner I also take that into consideration.



Keep up the good work, enjoy writing!

First of all, Welcome to Writing.com. Hopefully, you will enjoy and explore all the possibilities of this site.

Bravo! I salute you for writing this important essay on plastic waste and the importance of better action concerning plastic usage during this pandemic. Although I was somewhat familiar with the statistics you mentioned, I never thought about the increase of plastic and waste like gloves, and the high dosage of plastics because they are disposables which are of importance during Corona time. You are so right: perhaps we will control this virus within the year (wishful thinking maybe?) but the ramifications of this plastic pollution will last a lifetime. You made me conscious of those facts.

One thing: if you change the text size a little bit to 3 or 3,5 it will read much better. Now the letter size is too small. It will benefit your writing. And its content is too important to lose readers because of it?

Thanks for sharing, enjoy writing.

Hi, ♥HOOves♥ Author Icon.
Stumbled upon this little tale at Detective Page. What a cute story about Boo, your basset hound of more than thirteen years old. A true bandit, making the blue bread tie disappear and bringing it back at her convenient time to show off. I loved reading it.

My own dog Arie is fifteen and a half years old now, so I am as you are, keeping an eye on if nothing happens that needs a Vet. You always monitor the lovely pets, aren't you?

A sweet story, lovely pace and flow, and a nice feel to it. Thanks for sharing. *Bigsmile*

Hi Whitemorn Author Icon,I found your writing ad random. Hopefully, this review will find you in good spirits. *Delight*


On Title/Subject
Intriguing title, I guessed some device from the future. Byline left me guessing indeed. But I wanted to read on.

General impressions
A funny little tale with a twist. Very well told, good structure, descriptions, and flow. Appealing writing style.

Favorite Parts
After reading the quick start guide, Butch carefully unzipped the long black bag which had been placed in specially made foam shipping supports. His eyes lit up like a child's on Christmas morning as he looked down on his lovely new product. He had ordered the Cameron Diaz face because he loved her gigantic smile. There were a variety of faces available and voice packs to match or modify if a person wanted. I mean you could order Katie Perry's face and have Edith Bunker's voice if you wanted to.

Funny!

Suggestions
If you look at the write again you should notice some commas are missing. Corny perhaps, but it takes the reader out of the flow of the story. Perhaps you could download Grammarly, this program does that sort of thing for you. Very convenient. And it's free!

There is no need for that last line at the end, you could easily end the story with the android's words.

Final thoughts
Great story with a good feel to it. Thanks for sharing.

Keep up the good work, enjoy writing!

Hi ribrookens1,I found your writing ad random. Hopefully, this review will find you in good spirits. *Delight*


On Title/Subject
Nice title and since I am from the Netherlands myself, it caught my eye and I wanted to read further. You probably meant "find herself" in the byline?

General impressions
I like the story. Plot and character are well defined. But your writing style is somewhat chunky. It doesn't flow because of the structure of the sentences. Maybe you can have another look at that? I looked up that EmmaLane and it is 4 kilometers from the Anne Frank House, not three blocks. Perhaps you can change that?

Favorite Parts
I'm star(r)ing up at the ceiling trying to breathe. I actually took that plane. I actually used the passport that I have had locked in a safe for five years waiting to be used, whispering of the desire (to) travel but challenging the fear of traveling by myself.

Suggestions
Your sentences are somewhat difficult to read. It's the structure of the sentences that makes it flawed now and again. Perhaps if you look at the story again you can perhaps make shorter sentences with a better flow to the story? But hey, it's your first piece so there are lots of opportunities to adjust your writing.

Final thoughts
The content of the story is very admirable, but the way you structured your sentences can flourish with a closer look. Welcome to Writing.com, I hope you will enjoy everything on this site. *Bigsmile*

Keep up the good work, enjoy writing!

Hi G. Michael VanTassle Author Icon,I found your writing ad random. Hopefully, this review will find you in good spirits. *Delight*

Before anything else: Welcome to Writing.com. I hope you find this place instrumental to get creative and to be stimulated in writing and reviewing. Especially during Corona time this is the place to be.

Your first piece here is very good. You are a master at grammar and stuff so that's out of the way. Nothing to add there. You have an appealing writing style, sentences are both short and long and there is definitely a good flow in your writing.

This is the first Covid19 induced piece I've read so far and I can relate very much. Times are awful, we feel confined at locked up and when we leave the house it's mostly for groceries. Everything else is on hold. A terrible situation. Especially in your country where the situation is really bad. But also in the Netherlands, where I am from, things look more and more gloomy. We suspect a second wave after the holidays and watch with horror what lack of responsibility the youth display. Social distancing is something more and more ignored even by adults. Terrible. Your anxiety about the whole situation is deeply felt throughout your writing. Very well done.

A blog-like piece about a writer in Coronatime. I hope this is not your last work and wish you well in your creative endeavors. Keep on writing and enjoy it! Stay safe!
