Review of The Upright Piano  Open in new Window.
Review by Lollie Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
I liked it very much. I have much the same experience with things from the past holding special memories. I guess that is the reason for the word memento.

The significance of the day of its arrival was interesting. All the things you remember about it. Did the children ever practice? Did you mother continue to play all those years?

I don't see any glaring errors. I think maybe you cold refine it a little bit and elaborate some more. The sentence about which room it was delivered to is a bit run on.

I like your memory. I write on similar subject matter.

Review of That's you  Open in new Window.

It has a good rap flavor to it.

These are my suggestions:

'Further falling in the rut of this daily grind'

'Your laugh, your smile -- I get so lost in your stare.'

'Just a glimmer of light to signal that you care.'



'As I walk this earth completely lost in dream,
I can't contain myself. I really want to scream
Will there be a way to maybe see this through?
It's not a single train, it's everything that's you.

Time's hands are moving. They're quickly passing by.


Nothing constructed today is meant to last.

Ten years seems like forever

As I waslk this earth completely lost in dream,
I can't contain myself I really want to scream.
Will there be a way to maybe see this through?
It's not a single trait, it's everything, it's you.




I really enjoyed your poem.


Do you mean to infer that you see this person on a public transit or something...don't really know them? That is what I got.

Thanks for writing well done!

Review of The Odds of Irony  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (4.0)
I find the short introductory feeling story catchy and interesting. It seems like the start of a longer piece. I think the dialogue is a little stilted, although I am not very experienced in the art of writing dialogue that is natural.
I liked it overall. Very well done.

I loved it. Very well done, I can understand the feelings perfectly. It takes a certain courage to confront family members.

Review of Learning Chess  Open in new Window.

I loved the element of surprise at the ending. I was curious about the mention of the narrator's wheelchair and felt it would be elaborated on. I believe that the tense of the verb give is wrong in the sentence "The endless fear and long nights that jungle fighting with the enemy must have gave him, comes rushing into my mind." It should be given.
I really enjoyed your writing and look forward to more!

Please give some further indication of what the boy is doing in the wheelchair.

Again, great writing!

I love the cadence of this poem. It feels like it has a beat like the subject matter.
