 | Dear Me - 2021  [E] Out with the old (rough) year, in with the (hopeful) year.  |
| (5.0)  Greetings JACE !What brought Hoovsie meandering in a space time continuum over to your port?  I am reviewing your Dear Me letter as one of the judges for "Dear Me: Official WDC Contest" . Thanks for entering! What does hoovsie think about while perusing your item? I thought about how it might be good luck for the year that you did a Dear Me letter this year. I did one last year, but not this year with the same sort of nervous belief. Maybe the combination of you doing one and me not doing one will lead to a better year overall. Superstition, I know, but there it is. Your message to yourself is to do better. I like that because it's not like you are beating yourself up or overly indulging yourself. It's encouraging without providing too much praise. Giving yourself January is also something I could identify with. Somehow I'm thinking that January and February are for getting organized. I liked where you went with that. Your goals with regard to personal history writing and roots are consistent and tie well into writing a history of Writing.Com at some point It's part of your history.   My criteria for judging Dear Me letters is about what I find memorable and interesting. It may not agree with anyone else's judgment. I also enjoy a sly sense of humor or something that touches me personally. That is to give you an idea of where I'm coming from in the whole judging realm. No expert on keeping my own New Year's Resolutions, I didn't even try to think of any this year, partly out of the superstition that I mentioned earlier. So, I'm also looking to be inspired with my own plans for the year, without committing to any. I admire you for all the thought and effort you put into this. What does hooves moo and applaud about while reading your item? The part about maintaining an active site presence is good and mentoring someone can be a positive thing that connects you with someone just starting out. That is a win/win for you and the site. You wrote a lot of the site explanations/guide I think and that's something that helps new and older (like me) members alike. I use it a lot as a reference or when I want to actually learn something new. Can't beat that. Everyone has their contribution to make, I reckon. I enjoyed reading your letter to yourself - well done.  HOOVES, a.k.a. COWser Soze, a.k.a. tHiNG a.k.a. 4ps P.S. My reviews are not meant to be harsh edits or critiques. They are my reactions to what I have read and involve sharing my thoughts and feelings. That is how I approach most of the reviews I write now. We are asked to pick our favorites and that is what I try to do. Oh, and I joined the site when it was 9 days old the first time so if you ever want to know about those early interactive only days, just ask.   My review was written February 7, 2021 and stored in my review tool. We send the reviews out when the winners are announced and we are instructed to do so. If this is not timely, that is why. Ta Ta until we meet again in another place and time.... "Avoiding Toothless Rabid Bullies & Such"  My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
