Review of Thank You  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.5)
Hello mxtvs and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here. I have just read your little story, "Thank You, " and thought I would leave some comments.

First of you have your story listed as poetry, I would change that to short story.

What a lovely little story about your dog. Of course you are right pets are part of the family and deserve to be treated as such.

A lovely message and story of your pet.

Best wishes.

Review of Woman to Woman  Open in new Window.

Hello Charleen, how are you? I have just read your poem, "Woman To Woman," and thought I would leave some comments.


It is never easy to lose a loved one, especially one's spouse and as your poem tells, no matter how old we are, we all have the same emotions.

I liked the message in the last verse, it is good to talk to people who have the same problems.

Best wishes.

Hello dalewarren59 and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your poem, " My Adoption Legacy," and thought I would leave some comments.

What a lovely way to describe your two Mothers and how nice there is no bitterness or regret. I admire you.

Although I enjoyed all of the poem, my favourite verse has to be this one:

"Although I don't understand God's ways, and God's reasons

The color of the sky or the change of the seasons

I do understand a mother's love overflows every device

And when my life is over, I will have experienced it twice."

A lovely poem, thank you for sharing.

Best wishes.

Hello Andrew, I do not believe I have had the pleasure of reading any of your work till now.

I have just read your poem, " On The 11th Year Of WDC," and thought I would leave some comments.

I loved this, I found myself singing it as I went through each line. I thought it very creative, loved the use of the emoticons.

I have no suggestions for improvement.

Thank you for sharing.

Best wishes.

Review of All Wrapped Up  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (2.5)
Hello Hailly, how are you? I have just read your little story, " All Wrapped Up," and thought I would leave some comments.

Animals can be really funny can't they? The cat in your story in no exception, although she must have been a little frightened.

Suggestions:This part does not make sense, "Sophia whipped around my blond ponytail and fixed my green eyes on the tumbling blanket on the blue couch near our back door. There she was in plain sight. Sophia trapped her in the blanket! Halo tried escaping like mad, but it was no use. The more the cat moved the further buried in the blanket she became."

You wrote of Sophia and her elder sister Faith, then suddenly you speak of yourself?

Best Wishes.

Review of Overcome  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (3.0)
Hello Open thoughts and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your prose, "Overcome," and thought I would leave some comments.

First of all, I am not religious at all, but I do agree we can all overcome things. Many bad things will happen during our life times but it is true, time is a great healer.

Suggestions: In this line:"Why do I feel like I am not worth the air I breathe? he tries to take what is not his, by filling my mind with lies and misconceptions, he tries to tell me that I was a mistake, and no one wants me, but he forgot to mention one thing." "He" should have started with a capital letter as it is a new sentence. Also I think it would read better split in two sentences.

For example: "He tries to take what is not his by filling my mind with lies and misconceptions. He tries to tell me that I was a mistake and no one wants me, but he forgot to mention one thing.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for sharing your work.

Best wishes.

Hello Hingle McCringleberry and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your story, "The Crack," and thought I would leave some comments.

This would completely freak me out, knowing something was living in my wall and not knowing what it is! However, my guess is, it is probably a mouse.

I hope you discover, at some point, what it is!

Thank you for sharing.

Review of I Come From  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Lauryn Rose and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your poem, " I Come From," and thought I would leave some comments.

I liked this, I think if we all thought about it we could say so many things we come from. I particulary liked these lines: "I come from many chances to see the world and decide for myself.

I come from a place where my dreams and wishes have a chance to come true but, only if I work hard."

Not sure of the first line:"I come from my parents. Not really, but sort of." It leaves me wondering why you say not really.

Nice poem.

Best wishes.

Hello The Egg Man, welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your very short story, "A Very Short Story," and thought I would leave some comments.

As you only have eight words in your story, there is not really much to say. However, the second sentence does not really go with the first. "It didn't work," could mean anything. Perhaps something like,"She did not love him," would fit better? Also you have no fullstop (period) after the second sentence.

But keep writing.

Review of Holiday at Home  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Bob, how are you? I have just read your poem, "Holiday At Home," and thought I would leave some comments.

Is this actually true? Very funny, but I do not suppose I would think so if it happend to me! I am off on holiday tomorrow and I am not going to allow anything to spoil it!

You have good rhyming here, but I did stumble with the rhythm. For example in this verse:

There you have the story of my last vacations joy! = 13syllables
Me, with a load of kittens, hope they're mostly boys, = 12 syllables
Sitting in my kitchen with softly mewing, purring sounds, =14 syllables
To keep me company with no family members round. = 13 syllables

Some poetry will read good aloud without a perfect syllable count and some do not.

But this is just my opinion, it is your work after all.

Best wishes.

Hello Kawika and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your story, "Carlos," and thought I would leave some comments.

I thought this an excellent piece, a great message.

I must admit I thought it was going to be a fantasy thing about wrestling till I read on.

It is very true, "Whether you think you can or whether you think you can't, either way you are right."

Thank you for sharing.

Review of Skeleten Key  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 18+ | (2.5)
Hello Again Jack, I have just been reading another of your poems, "Skeleten Key," and thought I would leave some comments.

Your poem speaks of someone who pretends to care and then as you say, "Stabbed a knife into my back." A lot of emotions in your poem.

There are a few spelling mistakes; Skeleten, should be skeleton, weve should be we've, everytime should be every time and always a capital I when speaking of yourself.

Best wishes.

Hello Jack and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your poem, "You," and thought I would leave some comments.

It is nice to have someone to write a poem for. I am sure she appreciates it.

I think my favourite part is this:

"now i'm sitting here and writing
what my whole life i've been fighting
who would have thought it's so exciting
I blame you."


Suggestions: I think where you have written "since," you mean "sense."

Thank you for sharing.

Review of Where art Thou  Open in new Window.

Hello Found and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your poem, "Where Are. Thou," and thought I would leave some comments.

First of I think you t may have meant your title to be, "Where Art Thou,"

It is a very short poem and usually I think short poems are best, they can say so much. However, this one does not really say much at all except, "where art thou? perhaps you could elaborate a little on it.

Good luck and best wishes.

Hello Sam, how are you? I have just read your poem, "A Winter Morning Journey," and thought I would leave some comments.

Is'nt it great towake up and suddenly realise it is Sunday! No work! I am just wondering why you have to leave your house for your first cup of tea? Especially in such weather conditions! *Smile*

In this line: " Only to realize, dazingly," there is no such word as dazingly.

Thank you for sharing your early morning journey.

Hello Riverbedwriter, how are you? I have just read your item, "Needing Comfort," and thought I would leave some comments.

I agree we all need somekind of comfort, mine is a hot water bottle, even in the summer months I always have a hot water bottle.

One suggestion: People get bored, not board.

Thank you for sharing.

Hello Jazmine, welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here.

I have just read your little story, " A Bench At The Park," and thought I would leave some comments.

I am assumiing the birds had messed the bench?

Suggestions: You have started the story with the bench speaking and then changed to the story teller speaking then back to the bench. For example: These lines, "And then out of nowhere, it falls on top of me. Why? To what do I owe this? Above him, he heard the birds chirping. They fly through the air like children playing. There are already a lot of people in the park, but no one who comes sit down with me for a nice conversation." It makes the story a little confusing.

Hope this helps.

Rated: E | (4.5)
Hello E Duckworth and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy yout time here.

Thank you for your entry, "Falling," in the "Invalid ItemOpen in new Window. .

I enjoyed your little story, you sound a little bit like me except I am not falling for anyone.

Suggestions: I think you could take out a few of those commas, for example in this line: "Sometimes, I wonder why I ever get back up, I would only fall down again." There is no need for any commas." But that is just my opinion.

However, it will not affect the judging as I am looking for the story not perfect punctuation.

Please remember not to edit before the round's winners are announced.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Hello SandraLynn, how are you? I have just read your little story, "Matchbox Undies," and thought I would leave some comments.


I did not know Barbie dolls had been invented in the sixties, although I vaguely remember Sindy dolls.

Your Grandmother sounds very clever, I would have loved to have seen those tiny undergarments. What patience she must have had to make them.

A great story.

Best wishes.

Review of Sweetly Haunted  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (3.5)
Hello Ryan, how are you? I have just read your poem, " Sweetly Haunted," and thought I would leave some comments.

First of all, I really like the title , how nice to be sweetly haunted.

Lovely poem, written for one you so obviously love.

My only suggestion is the last verse: this line does not make sense, "
"I want you to have you as my own," unless you put a comma between you and to, so it reads:
"I want you, to have you as my own."

Also this line: "No competition for I'm am only yours," should be either, "I'm," or, "am."

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.

Hello Someone Awesome and welcome to WDC. I hope you enjoy your time here. I have just read your review, "Imagine Dragons book Review," and thought I would leave some comments.

I must say Imagine Dragons are one of my favourite bands and my favourite song has to be Demons. You are right the lead singer gives it such emotion. A great song and a great band.

Thank you for sharing.
