Hi, I enjoy reading, reviewing and critiquing, but would like to say I am by no means an expert. I'd hope that any and all input for change I give to another writer is also received with a critical eye. Your writing is your art *Smile* I address any punctuation or wording errors I perceive. I narrow in on sentence structure and vocabulary that could be refined. Then I really focus on what emotions and feelings the writing and content evoke. Sometimes I do this in reverse order, lol, depending on how struck I am by the piece. Writing and story telling, to me, is all about the feelings and emotions evoked *Smile*. At this point, I still get really overwhelmed with really long pieces of writing and tend to stick with the shorter ones.
I'm good at...
Fine tuning. Punctuation, Spelling. Assessing the character of a piece; emotions derived. Sentence structure and formatting.

This is striking. With suggestions of humor, but mostly, resentment. In the end I was left with a feeling of panic. Great job inciting feeling in the reader! I love the repetitive use of the word Baby, really solidifies it's villainous form. This is a letter of warning, a distress signal sent out. I love it's darkness, and it's realism. Thank you for your art. Write on Mik!

Hi, I just wanted to say your Poem really spoke to me. Fellow over-thinker here. Your writing is fluid and has a clear message. It speaks of thought, of tangled memories and of insecurity. I think it is a message many of us can relate to. I love it! Thank you for your art! Write on!
A Happy Reader,
Winded

Hello. I really enjoyed reading your piece. The scene you presented was easy to slip into. I sat down with you and met with God. I was very delighted with your description of him, I can see the tan jacket. The familiarity between you and him, the fact that you had met before, brought feel-good, wholesome feelings. And as I figured out the message along with you I felt that sense of wonder at it's simplicity! It makes perfect sense to me.
When you wake up and share with your cat, the message is further solidified. Maybe unnecessary to say you were napping or that you had eaten the ice cream before you slept. Writing "the bed, the ice cream bowl still in my lap" or "still next to me" would imply you were sleeping and had recently had ice cream, shortening the sentence to better hold the reader. I am a little confused about the last line of that paragraph regarding implications of life. Were you saying you continue to see examples of life based of sharing?
I think your closing statement ended this piece perfectly. Thank you for your story!
