Your short story "The Gift of Independence" showed up on the Read and Review Section of Writing.com.

I enjoyed reading your story. One wouldn't have thought about giving a gift of a home. This would be so special. I encourage you to keep writing. You wrote very well. I didn't see any mistakes in your writing. It kept my attention.

I enjoyed the part where you wrote, "It was such a curious gift. There was no card, no indication of who had given it. I looked the address up online; it seemed to belong to a house in a newly rejuvenated residential area of town. The curiosity was really getting the better of me now; I had to know what was at that address, and what the key was for."

The anticipation and curiosity of who or what it was that got the better of him showed that someone mattered.

My hope is for you to have miracles and blessings of good health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, understanding, and happiness to last you a lifetime.

I hope my review was helpful to you.

Hello, and good afternoon!

I clicked on Read & Review when your essay "The Unsinkable SS. McXXXXXXX") appeared. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can offer you feedback on my thoughts after reading your essay. If I have any pointers on how to improve your writing, I will share them with you. You can either take my information or not; that is entirely up to you.

I had to laugh when I read your essay. Compared to what happened aboard the S.S. McXXXXXXX, going to an office was funny. I could see the happenings on the ship where everyone is expected to work very hard, get kicked, clean restrooms, and get work orders on an ongoing basis. The one lady jumped overboard and was never seen again. More office jobs can be the same way. You work hard, only to end up feeling overwhelmed and tired. You get tired enough to want to quit. I can see the correlation in all of that.

I enjoyed reading your essay. I want to keep encouraging you to write. You do great at expressing yourself. From what I could tell, I didn't see any flaws in your writing.

My hope for you is that you will experience many miracles and blessings of good health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, understanding, and happiness that will continue for the remainder of your life and beyond.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I clicked on Read and Review, and your prose "When All Is Well" showed up. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can offer you my input on what my feelings were after reading this prose, and to point out some things that would help you to become a better writer. I hope that my review helps you.

I enjoyed your prose that tells of the different colors that make up a rainbow. It shows how you feel when you are in control and doing well. When someone is controlling you, the color is gray. The rainbow colors make you glow. I picked this up as you explained what each color represents.

I encourage you to keep writing. Your prose inspired me. I didn't see any flaws in your writing.

My hope for you is that you will receive many blessings and miracles of health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and much happiness throughout your life.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I clicked on Read and Review, and your poem "Dating 10th Anniversary" showed up. I am not a professional reviewer, but I give you my best shot at telling you how my story made me feel afterwards, and I can give you feedback on some suggestions that you can do that would help you become a better writer.

I enjoyed reading your story. It makes me feel good when someone can meet and become good friends and, maybe even get married and remain happy after doing so. I could feel the emotions behind what you were feeling.

I couldn't find anything wrong that needed to be corrected in your writing. I want to encourage you to keep up the good work.

Review of Homeward Bound  Open in new Window.

Hello and Good morning to you!

When I clicked on Read and Review, your poem, "Homeward Bound", came into view. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can share my thoughts on your poem and offer some suggestions to help you become a better writer.

It was interesting to hear a poem from Ireland. Your rhyming was incredible. I enjoyed reading it. I do some rhyming poetry myself. The first stanza caught my attention:

He sat with dreams of going home
staring through the window.
He wondered at the need to roam
that moved him long ago.

The second stanza goes like this:

He closed his eyes, and he could see
the shamrock fields so bright,
the rolling hills of greenery
that sparkled in the light.

I put a comma after the word eyes.

The image of the scenery was beautifully done. The color of the rolling hills of greenery is something I could picture with my own eyes. The shamrock hills shone a bright green, and the hills were sparkling in the light. This, I pictured, was so beautiful that it was the best place to relax in.

I took off the comma after greenery.

My hope for you is that you are blessed with miracles of healing in your health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, understanding, and happiness. I encourage you to keep writing. I will look forward to reading more of your work.

I hope that my review for you was helpful. You have also inspired me to keep writing.

Hello, and good evening to you!

Your story, "Clip-in Hair Extension Mistakes", popped up when I clicked on Read and Review. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can let you know what I thought after I read your story and point out things that I believe would be of help for you to become a better writer.

I enjoyed reading your story. There were parts in there that made me laugh, cry, and a bit sad, as I was reading your story. Everything looked very good to me. I am trying to get some books published if I can get away with it. I encourage you to keep writing. I didn't find anything that needed to be corrected. I appreciate the sound advice I got by listening to your story. You have a way with words. It was a bit emotional. I could feel the empathy that you had with the animals. I hope to read more of your work in the future.

Hello, and good evening to you!

Your poem, "I'm a Butterfly Stuck in Chrysalis," piqued my interest from the title alone. It had an emotional toll on me; it brought back memories of the past. I was surprised by how much was said in a few short sentences. When I clicked on Read and Review, it popped up. I am not a professional reviewer; however, I can give you my opinion on what I thought after reading your poem. I hope my review will be of help to you.

I believe your poem was well-written; the poem spoke volumes in just a few short sentences. It had an impact on me. I could feel the emotional toll of the butterfly. It must have thought, while it was stuck in the chrysalis, that it might have thought, since it couldn't find its way out. I would feel the same way, considering. Feeling trapped is scary. I want to encourage you to keep writing. You said a lot in a few short sentences. That is impressive to me. I am glad that you shared your poem for others to read. Don't give up on your writing.

I hope that you will have many blessings of good health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good afternoon to you! I clicked on the Read and Review Section, and your poem "I testify" popped up. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can offer my input on how I felt after reading it.

Your poem is full of inspiration. I enjoy poetry that can uplift a person's mood. You must have put a lot of thought into this, which means you must have worked on it for hours before deciding to submit it. I congratulate you on putting in the time and effort. You are a good writer. You are an inspiration. I encourage you to keep writing. Don't give up.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I clicked on the Read and Review Section, and your poem "The Battle's Blaze" popped up. I am not a professional reviewer, but I can offer feedback on what I thought about after reading it and how it could be improved to sound better.

You said a lot in your writing. It was great to hear that the water won the battle in putting out the fire. The impact it had on me was impressive. It's amazing how much can be said with a few lines. Keep up with your writing. I encourage you to do that. Sharing your poem with the public can be scary at first. The more you write, the better you'll get, and the better you'll feel.

Let your life be filled with good health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and much happiness. I hope that my review was helpful to you. Let sunshine and laughter be a part of your daily routine. When downtimes come around, don't give up on your writing. Keep strong, be brave, and don't let the harsh criticism of others interfere with becoming a writer.

Hello, and good morning to you! I clicked on the "Read and Review" Section, and your fictitious story, "The Liver Pump," popped up. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I can offer my opinion on how the story sounds and make corrections so that your story will sound better.

I found your story to be interesting. I have learned something about the medical field when you brought up the subject of liver pumps. You talked about a marathon runner at the age of 78 who felt herself as being younger when she had gotten one installed. Her hair became darker at the roots. She regained her vigor. She felt like she was 39 again. I felt happy; I felt like I wanted to be celebrating with them.

I hope that you will be blessed with miracles of health, friendships, thoughts, memories, and much love to last your whole lifetime.

Hello, and good evening to you! I selected the Read and Review Section, and your poem, "The Pain of the World," showed up. Even though I am not a professional reviewer, what I can offer you is my opinion of what I thought of your poem, and correct what I think may be right ones to correct.

Your poem was an interesting read for me. As I was reading it, I could feel the pain of war. It was painful to hear the cries of individuals who had lost their loved ones due to the devastation of war. It pains me to hear that innocent people have to lose their loved ones due to a senseless war, and hear that people laugh when war is happening all around us.

I am praying for a miracle of blessing for you in your health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and that you will have much happiness in your life from here on out.

I hope that my review has lifted your spirits. Have a nice day.

I encourage you to keep writing. It is good to be able to share with others. It could help someone who is also experiencing grief when war is happening around them.

Hello, and good evening to you! I clicked on the Read and Review Section, and your poem, "Your Original Scar" popped up. I am not a professional reviewer, but, what I can tell you, is my opinion on what I got from reading your poem.

The title of your poem should be capitalized on the the first letter of each word. The words in your poem spoke volumes to me. I can tell that this was an emotional piece to write. I liked how you described the scar as follows: In your scar, I read protection, as if your worst occurred before your pure self emerged, and bound, to a healing future. It's good to know that, even though a scar shows on yourself, doesn't necessarily mean that it's a bad thing. The first four stanzas read: You were born with a forceps slip, missed your blind eye, by a blink. A hello gash, and then the light, the first slice slashed from your raw face. That bloody newborn mark lit up your perfection and with the weeks was bleached to your own branding scar, A pearly dent, of half an inch in length, only clear to the eye in harsh light or when looking

I enjoyed reading this. It was interesting to see a scar portrayed in this way.

I hope that you have many miracle blessings of health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and much happiness.

I hope my review has helped you.

Review of A memory of you  Open in new Window.

Hello, and good evening to you. Your story, "A Memory of You" popped up on the Read and Review section. I am not a professional reviewer, but what I have to offer, is my input on what my thoughts were on your story.

Although I didn't understand your story completely, I can relate to how you must have felt when you wrote it. First of all, I don't know what diptique is. It sounds like you were at a party and gave her some of this stuff. You sprinkled it on her hand to take her away from a woofer. It sounds like you were in love with this girl, and you caught her with someone else.

Your emotions must have been going wild. You may not have understood why. This could have been your best friend who ended up betraying you.

I encourage to keep on writing. It is good to share with someone what you're going through. I am glad that I was able to read it. It takes a lot of courage to share your story with the public, but don't give up. The more you practice writing, the better you become.

I hope you have many miracles of blessing in your health, friendships, thoughts, memories, love, and much love to last the rest of your life.

Hello, and good morning to you! Your prose, A Strange Place" popped up on the Read and Review Section. I am not a professional reviewer, but, I can give you my feedback on how I thought your prose resonated with me.

Your prose gave me something to think about. I can relate to the strange feelings one gets when shadows, those eerie things that can cause a scary reaction to come inside you. For instance, when I see myself in the moonlight and then I see my own shadow following me everywhere I go. It's a great feeling when those eerie moments go away, they disappear. The exhilartion is very satisfying.

Hello and good morning to you! Your poem, "The Time Spent," popped up on the Read and Review Section. Although I am not a professional reviewer, I can give you feedback on how your poem resonated with me.

Your poem is interesting to read. Your poem rhymes well. Sometimes it takes a while to get words to rhyme, and you have managed to pull this off very well. I encourage you to keep writing. I am so happy that you shared your poem. It takes bravery to go out in public and share your work. I especially liked the last stanza of your poem: Those shifts so hell-bent Are simply time spent, but just paying the rent Will make you Clark Kent.

My hope for you is that you will have miracles of blessings in your health, friendships, memories, thoughts, love, and have much happiness in your life.

I had fun reading your story. I entered the NaNoWriMo Contest myself in November 2024. I was nowhere near the number of words needed to get a published novel. It gave me experience, and I got myself involved in the storyline. On the last page, I wrote, To Be Continued; I felt compelled to write more.

I get the impression you've gotten so caught up in everything that you no longer would listen to anything. You didn't get the news, you just assumed that you and yours were happy. But it seemed like that was okay when you said so be it. I felt like I could get the whole picture of where you were coming from. I want to encourage you to keep on writing. I enjoyed reeding your poem . It got me to thinking about the way I feel sometimes.

They will feel back to themselves again. I would like to encourage you to keep writing.

Review of Cactus  Open in new Window.

Hello, and good afternoon to you! Your mystery thriller "Cactus" popped up in the Read and Review Section. I don't have the expertise in doing reviews, but, what I can offer is my perspective on how I felt after reading it.

You said a lot in 28 words. I wouldn't have thought of using a cactus as a weapon, but, when I thought about it, a cactus has stickers on it. They are sharp and they stay stuck on you. It kind of reminds me of a porcupine using its quills to stick you. The moral to this little story is don't mess around with a cactus or a porcupine because you just might get stuck.

My hope is for you to have a blessing of a miracle healing in good health, good friendships, good thoughts, good memories, and have much happiness to last throughout your lifetime.

I encourage you to keep writing. I see the potential of a good writer in you. Have a nice day.
