Review of Memories Unmade  Open in new Window.
Review by AliceNgoreland Author IconMail Icon
Rated: ASR | (4.5)
Hello again L A,

I enjoy sitting with live oaks and discussing the concept of alternate timelines, probably better known as "what ifs". The trees know them all, of course, since their perception of time isn't continuous. Well, at least that is what they tell me.

I love this. ^^^



Great title.


PLEASE TELL WHEN YOU WRITE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLO,

And thank you for taking part in this round of the 120. I will read everything again in couple of days. It is that review that counts the most.

Imprisoning and asphyxiating them with cyanide.


I can see why so many before me enjoyed this tale. You should see if you make this a longer tale.

Hello,

And thank you for entering the 120. I will read everything again in a couple of days. It is that reading that counts the most. My rating may go up them.

This is a tad too "The Metamorphosis". If you were to pick another insect it would help.

I love the thought of the last line.

My oldest would love this. We have to air shows and plane museums and have tons of patches for things I have no idea about.

There are some formatting issues with this.

There is also a nice layer of affection and respect for what you are writing.

As always,

Alice

Hello,

The prompt used is "

Just then I heard my husband call to me,

How come he can not hear the awful things that happen down there, but she can hear him?


I think this is a good and chilling idea.

Review of Haunted Rug  Open in new Window.
Review by AliceNgoreland Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Hello again,

I did read both of these before but I did not get change to praise.

Just think, if you had never enter the 120, I might never have read your work.

This is for the prompt "rug", in the 120, for the of May 5th through May 12th.

The tea one appeals to me a little more than this but is still very nice.

As always,

Again this is your review for 120, in the round of May 5th to May 12th.

I think the names in this one are really good.

I think this is the best written out of the lot.

I do not think the last line is necessary because it was already implied very well without it.

Ah ha! I read you again.

This review is for the round of May 5th through May 12th of the 120.

Cute idea. It reminds of the TV show Night Gallery, those short-shorts they would do.

The same hokey movie monster jumped out and ate them both.

It said, “Hah, laugh at my movies, will you?” It licked its teeth and slipped back into the shadows.{/b]

I think this would read better if they were combined.

I do love florist shops, they cool, smell wonderful, and of course the flowers.

He thought he would die for that smile.

He was the last customer of the day.


See the lump of of "he's" . . . I'd try are work them out.


Consider,

He thought, {i]' I'd die for that smile.'

The florist turned the sign after he entered, he was the last customer of the day.


She said, “I’m leaving you.”
He asked, “Why?”
She stated simply, “I love Marvin.”


I think above this you should have had ***

I also feel that you should use her name instead of "she".

He also could used a name used earlier.


then Cindy smiled and dropped a blood red rose on his still chest as they walked away.

I thought this was very nice.

WE met again...

Again this for the 120 round of May 5th to May 12th.

The prompt is "rug".

Great title.

I think over all there are places you should easily cut some words and used them for her reaction to her surprise.

I am glad to see you try so many. That is always nice to see.

Hello,

And thank you for taking part in the May 5th through May 12th of the 120.

This goes under the "skin" prompt.

He watched her as her large frightened eyes followed him above the gag he had covered her screams with.

I think anytime you use a word more than once in any sentence, you should consider reworking it.

He watched her large frightened eyes follow him.

Above the gag, her large frightened eyes...

I really liked much of what you have written in the past but this one seems to me not like your best.

Oh well, one small flash.

Hello,

This is your second read for the 120 in the round of May 5th to May 13th.

This goes underneath the category of "skin" prompt.

I think this is nicely written and that is of course makes the tale worth the read.

I truly like this one too.

Hello,

This is the second reading for May 6th - May 13th of the 120.

Thanks for work and the read.

Both words in your title need to be capitalized.

Where, oh bloody where it is? I rummage through the cellar, weakening with every moment while the green demons suck the life out of me. Ah, finally! Gotcha!

I think this should appear as,

I rummage through the cellar, weakening with every moment while the green demons suck the life out of me.

Ah, finally! Gotcha!


I still love this.

Review of Black Wind  Open in new Window.
Review by AliceNgoreland Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 13+ | (4.5)
Hello,

Thank you for taking part in the 120. I hope YOU do so again!

Some how to me this has an air of New Orleans to it although I can say for sure why.

I huddled in the comfort of Mother's bosom and tried to block out the hungry wind and Father's voice.

I think you should switch out "huddled" here. In flash you must be-careful to what words you repeat.

Other than that, a fine read.

This is a nice concept for a pome, and quite right for the Haiko too.

I have to tell you this well written.

It is wonderful that you doing more than one and I hope that you keep it up.

Although it is clear that you are good writer, you should know that the dragon has been on skin a lot. So is lady. So looke for something else. Keep the tatoo but reach for something else.

Hello,

And welcome to 120.

I read everything at least twice once before the close and after. The round I will be having someone else help out of the judging as well.

Any notes I give feel free to ignore. It’s your tale not mine.

Please enter again and again and again.

I love vamps too.

'sweet'.

“Damn, the lights!” I jump, then find a candle, lighting it I trip over the cat as she hops through her flap carrying something..

Double period.


“What do you have, kitty?” I ask, trying to distract myself from the relentless booms shaking my sanity.

On this line I mix it up and find another word for "booms".


This one is very nicely written.

Review of The Rat Waits  Open in new Window.

Boy you are in a word flurry or what?!

The rat sat watching. Its malevolent eyes boring into my mind.

Consider,

Malevolent rat eyes bore into my mind.

I think over all it needs more feeling and description to highten the horror factor. I know you can, if you try.
