Review of Isabell  Open in new Window.

Fantastic. Loved the repetition. Meticulously constructed, but not a slave to form. Great read.

I love the concept, but the first line is 6 syllables.

Review of What If . . .  Open in new Window.
Review by ZenRunner Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
This is very good. 5th stanza might the weak point for me. Small fee line seems a liitle forced and "Where would you go?" doesn't seem related to the other lines.

Review of Silence  Open in new Window.
Review by ZenRunner Author IconMail Icon
Rated: ASR | (4.5)
This is a beautiful, coherent tale. It reads fairly smoothly. It seems to break it's own rules in spots. Stanzas are iambic, but one is trochaic (4th) Syllable counts vary, but I tend to be more of a sound guy. I don't like the lack of rhyme in 6th stanza as you rhyme in every other one (although the lines themselves are great). This is picky stuff. Take it as you wish. Not even sure if I am right. It's a terrific piece!

Cute. Nice story. Rhyme is a little clunky in spots, perhaps you could tweek a little.

Seems to flirt with structure without being too committed. I think you meant "and bring us to a new kingdom".

Nice, simple, concise! I might use 4 lines stanzas, but just one man's opinion.

This is nice! Good structure, smooth and funny. Makes me want to read more of your stuff. I usually read anyone who reviews me. More often than not I am disappointed. And I want to like it. Especially if it was a nice review.

Rated: E | (5.0)
Loved this one. I think this may be my next project in form school. It is a feat when you fit the form without sounding clunky and still make your point. I will read more.

Rated: E | (4.5)
Very nice. Personally, I don't capitalize first word of a line if it begins mid-sentence. Not sure what is the stabdard on that. perhaps you have more insight than I.

Nice idea. I would switch to "on a clothes line" and "more to it's surprise than anyone else's."

Enjoyed this one. Well executed and, while I feel for you if this is an issue for you, it feels palpable to me as a reader.

I found the rhythm in this one a bit awkward, particularly the 2nd stanza. Seems fixable. good overall premise.
