Review of Worthless  
Review by Sanita
Rated: 13+ | (3.0)
Hello Broken, welcome to WDC, I hope you enjoy your time here and manage to find your way around the site. Please feel free to e-mail me should you need any help.

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

*Buttonv* Overall impression: Cleary a lonely girl who feels worthless and perhaps made to feel that way. Depression and that helpless feeling is never good.

*Document* Suggestions: I feel there is too much use of the word "she," she is, she feels, she wishes, she cries. I think if you make the sentences a little longer you can cut out some of that.

*Pencil* Punctuation/Grammer/Spelling: Again I feel the sentences are too short. "Hoplessness." is not a sentence. A lot of the very short sentences can be separated with commas and read a lot better.

Remember these are just my opinions.

With some revision you have the makings of a good short story.

Review of Not Sure?  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (3.0)
Hello Gabriel, Welcome to WDC, I hope you are enjoying the site. You will find many people here, including myself willing to help. Please feel free to e-mail anytime.

I have just read your draft which you have titled, "Not Sure,"

Overall impression: I think you have the makings of a good fantasy story here. I notice you say you can never finish anything. I would suggest you try to work on just one short story at a time. You will find it will help to just concentrate on one for now. Perhaps revise and finish this one.

Best wishes.

Review of Finding Luna  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hello Chloemaner, welcome to WDC, I hope you are enjoying your time here. I have just read your story, "Finding Luna," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall Impression: I thought this a lovely story of finding a little dog. it is always nice when we take care of lost animals and even better when we get to keep them.

*Document* Suggestions: The story would read better if you separate in to paragraphs, also always start a new line when someone speaks.

*Pencil* Grammer/Punctuation/ Spelling: There are some spelling and punctuation mistakes, too many to go in to, but nothing an edit will not sort out.

Lovely little story.

Best wishes.

Review of Yesterday  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello Flapjack_ Destroyer, I love your handle. I have just read your poem, "Yesterday," and thought I would leave some thoughts.

*Buttonv* Overall Impression: I love this, I have never thought of it like this. You are right, yesterday was today once!

*Document* Suggestions: No suggestions, I like it as it is.

*Pencil* grammer/Punctuation/Spelling: No errors.

*Heart* Favourite part: All of it, I like the way you kept it very short, a few words is all it needs.

Best wishes.

Hello Pen_Arcana~ back_from_hiatus , I have just read your poem." Snipping The Strings Of The Marrionette," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall Impression. The poem speaks of wanting freedom and at last cutting the strings. I think we all long for this at times, from home life or work.

*Document* Suggestions: "I look at mirrors and saw a wooden body," Would read better as "and see a wooden body," But that is just my opinion.

*Pencil* Grammer/Punctuation/ Spelling: One typo, "I hold on m hands," I think was meant to be, "I hold on my hands."

*Heart* Favourite lines: "I then cut the strings, I am now free."

Best wishes.

Review of Departing Blue  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hi Nevis, I just read your poem, "Departing Blue," what a lovely name for a poem.

I am glad Christmas is over and looking forward to spring too!

I love this verse, made me laugh to think of Saint Nick snoring away for another year.

Ol' Saint Nick has gone to bed,
Left these shores once more,
Hopefully to rest his head,
Can you hear the snores?

Lovely little poem.

Best wishes.

Review of Homelessness  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Kellie, I am not sure if I have reviewed you before, but if not welcome to WDC, I hope you enjoying the site.

I have just read your poem, "Homelessness," and thought I would leave a few comments.

*Buttonv* : Overall impression: Actually it was the title that brought me to read the poem. Homeless people should be a thing of the past these days, but some reason it seems to be worse. you are right we are too quick to turn away using drink and drugs as an excuse.

*Document* Suggestions: The lines, "They'll make you glad, you can take no pity," seems a contradiction, as the point of is to make people stop and think and have mercy on the homeless. Perhaps I am reading those lines wrong.

*Pencil* :grammer/punctuation/spelling: I see no errors.

A poem with a heartfelt message.

Review of Here  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Oleksander, how are you? I have just read your short piece, "Here" and thought I would leave a few comments.

*Buttonv*Overall impression: I always find past lives a very interesting subject. I always think sometimes when we see someone and seem to instantly recognise them and yet do not know them, that we knew them in a past life. I get the impression the someone the writer wants to be with, is someone they feel they knew in a past life.


*Document* Suggestions: I did not understand "I would risk old age with memory," Did you mean without memory?"

*Pencil* Grammer/punctuation/spelling: I see no errors.

Best wishes.

Sanita.

Hello Duane, I am not sure if I have reviewed you before and welcomed you to WDC, but if not Welcome. I hope you are enjoying your time here.

I have just read your contest entry, "I Am Not Supposed To Talk To You."

A very funny little story, I think I would have been tempted to call her that name too!

I loved the line "So, Blondie, what'cha do to get in here?" Sounds like they were in a prison!

A great little story.

Review of A Blank Page  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hello Corbin, welcome to WDC, I hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site. Please feel free to e-mail me should you need any help.

I have just read your poem," A blank Page," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: The poem speaks of a blank page we wish to create on but fear we shall spoil it. I think the creation would more likely enhance it.

*Pencil* Suggestion: In verse, " A blank page, carrie so much," should read "A blank page carries so much."

Best wishes and keep creating.

Review of Day 18  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (3.0)
Hello OJ, welcome to WDC, hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site.

I have just read your item titled "Day 18," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: An inspirational piece, I see your meaning when you say is there no coincidence. Everything happens for a reason I suppose.

*Pencil* Suggestions , I would use the word through rather than thru, thru makes it look a little like a quick text message.

Food for thought.

Hello ECStJohn, I have just read your poem, "Today I Met A Woman At Randall's Bay," and thought I would stop and leave a comment or two.

I do not usually like non rhyming poetry, but this one caught my attention and I had to read it.

I love the message you give here, so very true, why would anyone give up all that beauty for money. Sadly though, the materealistic world does seem to have taken over.

I have no suggestions for improvement, it says it all.

Great Imagery and a great poem.

Review of Smile for a While

Hello Stevie, I am back to review another of your pieces as requested.

"Full Circle," is a lovely quirky little poem with great rhyming.

The syllable count is out a bit which did make it a little bumby to read. But it is still a very enjoyable poem.

Best wishes.

Review of Dear Me  
Review by Sanita
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Mickey, welcome to WDC. I hope you are enjoying your time here and managing to find your way around the site. If you have any queries please feel free to e-mail me.

I have just read your "Dear Me," letter and thought I would leave some comments. Please remember they are just my opinons.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: Some very good goals you have set yourself and you are right, we should all value ourselves.

*Document* Suggestions: The only thing I would suggest is in line " You rely on my friends too much," I would have put , "You rely on your friends too much," as you are speaking to yourself. Otherwise it sound like you are speaking to another person.

*Pencil* Grammer/Punctuation: There should be no comma before the word "and" in the first paragraph as and acts as a comma.


A good letter and goals.

Sanita.

Hello Stevie and welcome to WDC. I hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site. Please feel free to e-mail me should you need any assistance.

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

*Buttonv* Overall impression: I loved the poem, you send a really good message out. There is beauty everywhere and it has nothing to do with how we look.

*Document* Suggestions: I have no suggestions for improvement, I like it as it is, it says it all.

*Pencil* Punctuation and Grammer: Personally I would have put a comma in the first line. " The forms are many, the understanding is few."

Great poem with a great message.

Best wishes.

Hello Courtney and welcome to WDC. I hope you are enjoying the site and finding your way around. Should you need any help, please feel free to e-mail me.

I have just read your story part and notice you are asking for help in finishing it.

Firstly there seems to be a lot going on in such a short piece and it makes it read a little muddled.

You start with you and soggy socks then go on to describe a sofa and then In line "I hesitantly reached out to touch the golden globe and deciding her fate," you do not say who's fate.

I think you may find it easier to slow it down a little and gradually build it up.

Hope this helps.

Hello Ella, welcome to WDC. I hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site. It can be a little daunting at first, but there are a lot of people, including myself, willing to help. Please feel free to e-mail me should you have any questions.

I have just read your poem, "A Walk." and thought I would leave some comments. Remember they are just my opinions, others may feel different.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: Your poem describes how we percive the world around us while walking.

*Document* Suggestions: I do feel it could be a little more descriptive. Ie: "Listening to the sound of the city," What sounds where there? Voices, perhaps traffic?

*Pencil* Punctuation and grammer: There are no errors I can see.

*Heart* Favourite line: "An old man sits on a bench alone." A common sight for us all I think.

Nice poem.

Best wishes.

Hello Sydney and welcome to WDC. I hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site. There are a lot of people, including myself, willing to help. Please feel free to e-mail should you have any questions.

I have just read your poetic story, "My Harsh Reality," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: I think we all, at times feel we spend a little too much time alone and long for a way out. You describe how this feels very well.

*Pencil* suggestions/ grammer/ Punctuation: The only mistake I notice is in line "but I cannot seek way out," I think it should have been "but I cannot seek a way out."

Good poetic story.

Hello Leah, welcome to WDC. Hope you are enjoying your time here and finding your way around the site. It can be a little daunting at first, but there are lots of people, including myself, willing to help. Please feel free to e-mail me if you are in need of any help at all.

I have just read your Poem, "Invisible Paradise," and thought I would leave some comments.

*Buttonv* Overall impression: A dreamy poem, longing for a place where everything is wonderful. I wish there was such a place too.

*Pencil* Suggestions, punctuation and grammer: I could see no errors in punctuation or grammer. The only thing I would suggest is not to write the last word in pink. But that is just a personal preference.

*Heart* Favourite line: "Every thought would be poetry."

Great poem.

Sanita.
