Hello Nicola Black, welcome to WDC,. I have just read yout essay ," The Misunderstanding of raising children."

You started off the essay quite well, but then in the second paragraph you did not really say much apart from the privilages they have today.

I think perhaps if you elaborate a little more on why this is happening and perhaps a conclusion on your thoughts of how it can be changed for the better.

A good start.

Review of my disguise  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Hello jess, I have just read your poem,"Disguise."

I like short poems, I think a lot can be said in just a few words, as you have shown here.

Having to cover up how we really feel at times is hard. Sometimes it is best to find the courage and say what hurts.

Best wishes.

Review of I was sleeping  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello Blue moon, this is a great poem. it can be read in more than one way, perhaps a reaccuring dream, or someone you want to come into you life.

They are there briefly, "I just had to say your name, but I was sleeping." Always just out of reach.

Lovely poem.

Review of You Look At Him  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (3.5)
Hello Harley, welcome to WDC,. I have just read your poem, "You Look At Him."

A poem teling the story of a boy who sounds like he is influenced by his peers and the poet is losing that closeness with him.

"You tried to tell him, but he brushed you off." Sadly this is what happens.

I like this poem , I like the way you describe the change in him. "He;s grown. he's faded."

Suggestion: I am not sure why you wrote almost the whole poem twice. In my opinion it made it drag out a little. But remember that is just my opinion.

Best wishes and happy new year.

Review of one  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (4.0)
Hello Jess, welcome to WDC, I have just read your poem,"One."

I thought this was going to be a poem of forever love and then it ends, "Not meant to be."

I like the lines, "When the paint starts peeling and you are no longer there."

Nice little poem , even though it was not forever.

Suggestions, end verse would sound better if you could use another word to rhyme with "Be," rather than the same word. But that is just my opinion.

Best wishes and happy new year.

Review of Looking  Open in new Window.

Hello Tonya, I have just read your story, "Looking."

I think this is a beautiful piece describing how the death of a loved one is so traumatic we have dreams looking for them. Then one different one accurs and at last we can be at peace.

Lovely little story.

Suggestions, the line," I followed it, the closer I got. That lightbecame brighter and more blinding." Would read better as, "I followed it, the closer I got that light became brighter and more blinding."

Hello AsIAmNow, I have just read your poem, "I Find It Hard."

I think we all at some time in our lives will struggle with self esteem and to heart the things people may say.

We should just be ourselves, because that is all we can be.

Nice poem and no suggestions.

Hello geniusgal, I have just read your poem, "Leavin Home."

A great poem, memories flooding back as you prepare to leave. my favourite lines, "The walls still echo the cries and laughter, Toys lying abandoned in a corner."

Suggestions; toghetherness should be togetherness.

Hello puppycat, welcome to WDC. I have just read your story, "Not The Average Girl."

Some sort of fantasy story, I think. It has potential but does need a lot of tidying up.

There are numerous spelling mistakes, for instance stake should be steak. also each sentence should start with a capital letter. Too many mistakes to mention ,but with a lot of work it could be the start of a good story.

Hello Wator64, I have just read your short story, "Erotic Proclivities."

Something I would not usually read, so perhaps unfair of me to comment, but I found it on the Newbies page and I am here now.

I have to say, I did not find it should be classed as erotic. For me, I found it more of a perhaps middle aged man leering at a young lady at the bus stop.

But that is just my opinion of course.

Hello Colby Robert and welcome to WDC. I have just read your story, "Rocks and Toes."

I really enjoyed this, it is funny when we think back to the things we did as a child. Although I must admit I had never tried picking up rocks with my toes.

Very entertaining and no suggestions.

Best wishes.

Hello cmmacneil, welcome to WDC. I have just read your story/article, "When You Understand You Can't Go Back Home."

A very tragic and personal story. At such a young age, no more than a child, to have to live off the streets, turn to Alcohol and prostitution to live.

I am sure you have come a long way since those very cruel days.

Best wishes.

Hello KittyLB9. I have just read your little article, " The Perfect Mum Versus Super Mum."

I have to agree, I do not think there is any such thing a perfect Mum or indeed Dad. but we all do our best to try.

In the sentence, "I bet you remember the exact date," you are referring to the childs birth. We would remember, it is their Birthday.

Hello deepnthought, I have just read your poem, " Time and Time Again."

I do feel it would read a lot better if you had made more of each line, added words and took out all or some of the "Time To's." As it is, it reads more like a list than a poem. Hope this helps.

Review of the one for me  Open in new Window.
Review by Sanita Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (3.0)
Hello alessandra and welcome to WDC. I have just read your poem, "The One For Me."

It is always nice to write a poem for a loved one. The first verse is very nice, especially the last two lines, "In his favourite place, with me by his side."

I did it fine a little repetative in places, for example. " Our laughter echoes,
our laughter echoes
across the globe.

Had it been separate sentences, it may have worked. But that is just my opinion.

Best wishes.

Hello Ryan, I have just read your story, "The Blue Blanket."

I loved the story, lots of children have comfort blankets and do find it hard to give them up, till something happens and they feel no longer in need of it, just like the boy in your story.

Lovely read.

Best wishes.

Hello Waldecam, I have just read your story," Powers Of Thought, Where Could You Go?"

I really enjoyed this and would like to read more. I believe you could go on with this and make it much longer.

I love to read anything Supernatural.

Suggestions: The only part I did not understand was , "Falling from one story of another." Perhaps I am reading it wrong.

Great little story.

Hello Ivyn and welcome to WDC, I have just read your poem, "Laria."

What A lovely name for a perfect world. I wish there were such a place.

I think my favourite verse is , "Laria, where no one is lonely, where we all help one another."

Just one typo, end line, wee should be we.
