Review of The Mystic Woods  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello, and good afternoon to you!

I am reviewing "The Mystic Woods". Even though I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your story has impacted me.

Your story sounds like a mysterious fantasy. Eldoria must be a place that holds some powerful magic. At this place, Nikki wants to know how she got to this place. It's a place of wonder and mystery.

Nikki could be in a position where she will have a reign of power. Her influence could open up a new world for her. Will she be a nice person or an evil one? Since she would like to be in a place where dragons, magical creatures, and brave heroes are, who would this hero be? Would this person have the head of a dragon and a body like Hercules? Will she be riding a big white horse with special powers, and having Shazam as another hero? Would one of these heroes betray her?

I think your story has interesting possibilities to make a good mysterious fantasy. I encourage you to keep writing. I am looking forward to how your mystery fantasy develops.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone deserves to have this.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I read your short story "World Builders, LLC". I will give you a review. Even though I am not a review professional, I can provide you feedback on how your short story has impacted me.

Your story made me laugh. It did make some sense though. God should be pleased with your way of thinking. The part where you said that rather than the seventh day being a day of rest, it was to be the day the papers were signed. This is an interesting twist to the story.

I want to encourage you to keep up with your writing. I am looking forward to reading more short stories, etc., from you in the future.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I read your story "Doorway to the Place of Mystery", and I will give you a review. I am not a review professional, however, I can provide you with feedback on how your story has impacted me.

Your story was fantastic! I enjoyed reading it. It was fascinating how Lisa and her brother had traveled into different realms. I got scared when Lisa fell. I was relieved when she was caught by a griffin and carried to safety. It was rather sad, I was almost in tears when they were in one realm where they saw their grandpa. He said that they would be there one day.

Your story was well-written. I look forward to reading more stories from you. I encourage you to keep on writing.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last throughout your lifetime.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I read your story "A Unicorn's Tale", and I will give you a review. I am not a review professional, although I can provide you with feedback on how your story impacted me.

The name Seargent Hardhead fits well with your story. I had to laugh. The way the Unicorn was telling the story about the sergeant butting heads with the enemy, and killing fifty of them, was unbelievable. And, the part about the toilet paper being better than using leaves. That was amusing! Being in the military is nothing to laugh about, but they do need laughter in their lives.

I encourage you to keep writing. I enjoyed reading this comedy.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I read your short story "The Wind in the Willows". I am going to give you a review. I am not a review professional, however, I can provide feedback on how your short story has impacted me.

I love your story. I most certainly could relate to your story. It reminded me of a time when my mother received an inheritance for her brother. My sister helped her look for a newer house for her to live in since her former place was falling apart. When I went to look at it, it was like deja vue set in. I could have sworn I had been in that house before. I thought it had something to do with my past, but I didn't know what had happened there. It was an eerie feeling at first, but I also knew it was the perfect place for her to walk with her walker.

Your story also reminds me about jumping to conclusions, certain something was true, but wasn't true at all. It's funny (strange) how a person's mind works. Just because something reminds you of past experiences, doesn't mean it will happen again. The past brings back my experiences; they tell me not to trust people; I will only get hurt again, they keep telling me. This gets to be a struggle with me, even today. When my mind starts to get thoughts that my special guy doesn't feel like I'm pretty enough for him, I revert to the past. Each time a lady talks to him, my mind thinks there's something sneaky going on between them. I don't care to have those kinds of feelings; they're a pain in the butt.

I wrote a story "Jumping to Conclusions" (

Review of Makes Sense  Open in new Window.

I read your satirical poem "Makes Sense". I will give you a review. Although I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your poetry has impacted me.

You put down that this poem is a satirical comedy. You gave a detailed description of this strange bird, a guy. He knew his fiancée who said he never showed up for the wedding. It makes sense for the fiancée to feel this way. For him not to show up for the wedding must have been heart-wrenching for her. A wedding is a huge event; a special bond between a woman and a man. Preparations for this event take a long time; making the guest list, etc. For him not to show up must have been an embarrassment for her and the people in attendance.

Your poem was well-written. I encourage you to keep up with your writing. You did a great job!

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone deserves to have this.

Review of The Game He Plays  Open in new Window.

I read your short story "The Game He Plays". I am going to give you a review. It's true. I am not a review professional, although I can provide you with feedback on how your story has impacted me.

You expressed yourself well in your short story. I felt sad for the little boy in blue when a vicious game was played on him. People can be mean to one another. It would be easier if we could be kind to each other instead of being cruel. The person who wanted to blow his horn when he didn't have one was an unkind soul. I can pick up the little boy blues emotion. He must have been hurting inside and felt like crying. The person who was cruel to this little boy could've bought him a horn. This would've made a huge difference in this boy's life. He would have grinned from ear to ear.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. I hope my suggestion will be of help to you.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone deserves to have this.

I read your story "Rebel Yell". I am going to give you a review. Although I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your story impacted me.

I have to be honest with you. There were a lot of misspellings and letters that were overlapping. I read your whole story. It was interesting.

It would've been easier to read if the words were spelled right. It was an enjoyable story. I recommend you get someone to help you with your spelling, etc. A professional could help make your story better.

Review of kids  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (5.0)
Hello, and good evening to you!

I read your article "Kids". I am going to give you a review. I am not a review professional, however, I can provide you with feedback on how your article has impacted me.

You are not alone in your decision not to have kids. I made that decision when I was diagnosed as having a mental disability. My sister mentioned that if I had any kids, she most likely would've ended up raising them. When I heard the stories of people with kids and the day-to-day responsibilities that went along with it, I made the right decision not to have kids. Due to being depressed all the time when I was 17 to 50 years old, I didn't think it would be fair of me to bring them into the world. It would have been too much stress on myself to have carried on such a responsibility. Even though my ideal dream was to be happily married, have two kids (1 boy and 1 girl), have a nice house, and live happily ever after, I didn't regret having made that decision.

I am a straight person and I have a good friend who is gay. Some nice people are gay, and, because of their lifestyle, I still think of this person as my good friend.

I enjoyed reading your article. It was nice to hear of someone else having the same feelings as I do about this. I encourage you to keep up with your writing. Your writing was easy for me to read and understand.

I am looking forward to reading more articles from you.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone is deserving of this.

Review of No Pity  Open in new Window.

Rated: E | (5.0)
I read your melodrama poem "No Pity". I will do a review for you. I am not a review professional, although I can provide you with feedback on how your poem has impacted me.

Your poem reads as follows:

Lest I be forgotten in this strong stench,
I shall let you know it has come to pass.
Tired and drained, smelling quite far from French.
Sadly in this round, I have gained some class.
The stinking power has faded, I'm so upset.
I must now take this into my own hands.
Standing on the ledge, I can let go of the hurt
I have felt on these lands. Letting myself fall
away from this plight, the last of my stink floats
into the clouds. I know now I couldn't have won
this fight; I've never fought well against massive
crowds.

So long, my fellow stinkers of the day.
I've come to find this isn't the way.

I have made a few minor corrections to the above. I hope this is helpful to you. Read it over and see what you think.

Your poetry was very descriptive when it came to having no pity. It was well-written. I could feel the emotion behind it.

I liked reading your poem. It was a dark way of talking about having no pity. I can understand where you're coming from. When you have no pity, your life can be miserable. It begins to eat at you.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone is deserving of this.

Hello and good morning to you!

I read your nature poem "Morning Aubade". I am giving you a review. Although I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your poem has impacted me.

Your poem reads as follows:

The cloying mist yields to the breeze;
its lace-like remnants slowly fade
revealing fields where chickadees
rejoice in song across the glade.

The gentle touch of morning light,
flows like an echo, soft and clear,
to bring forth colors lost at night
as poppies and lilacs appear.

Hummingbirds and bees join in
the melody of day's rebirth;
their whispered drone part of the din
that fills the air with nature's mirth.

An aural picnic, filled with joys;
a celebration of the earth
in harmonies that life employs
each morning at the day's new birth.

Your poem is beautiful. Your rhyming rhythm is great. It reminds of the spring and summer. It brings about a refreshing life to a gorgeous day. I can feel the senses that your poem brings.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. It's a delightful way to begin the day.

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

Review of Who Are You?  Open in new Window.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I read your drama "Who Are You?". I am not a review professional, however, I can provide feedback on how the drama has impacted me.

Your drama was very well done. You found your match, but, in the end, she broke your heart.

I can relate to your poem. I was in the hospital with a roommate who was identical to me. She had the same mannerisms, look, and the same background. The only difference was that she had three kids and I had none. Talk about an eerie situation. The only way the nurses and doctors could tell us apart was to put my hair into a ponytail. We were great at playing ping pong though.

I've often thought people were making fun of me by using sarcastic humor or mimicking me. I am sorry the love relationship didn't work out in your story, however, I enjoyed reading it.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. It reminded me a lot of myself.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I read your poem "The Train". I am not a review professional, however, I can provide feedback on how your poem has impacted me.

It's an interesting story about a train meeting its unstoppable force; recourse. Your poem was well-written. The train saw many things on its journey. Your poem is also uplifting.

Your poem reads as follows:

Once the train barreled through the darkness, maintaining its course
Until the train met its unstoppable force.

The ending gave inspiration even though the dark coals slowed the train down. Recourse was what the train chose to get through its journey, and got through all that heft in the end.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. It reminded me of the old story "The Little Engine That Could". It couldn't make it up the hill when it said "I think I can, I think I can". It did make it up the hill and the engine had a big smile on its face.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I read your short story "Tall Tales WC 218". I will gladly give you a review. Even though I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your short story has impacted me.

I enjoyed reading your story. I understand why you wondered what kind of mischief your husband was up to after having heard too many excuses for why he was always late. You loved him anyway despite all that.

I have someone in my life like yours; always making up excuses. I do love him. It does get frustrating though. We do have quite the same similarities in our lives. He jokes around a lot, and it's sarcastic humor. It sounds like it's putting people down. I don't much care for this kind of humor; I don't get it.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. It should help others who are going through a similar situation. It gave me some insight into understanding that I am not alone in
this kind of situation.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I have read your story "Eryndor", and the excitement I feel for doing a review is wonderful. Even though I am not a review professional, I can provide feedback on how your story has impacted me.

I love the title of your story "Eryndor". How did you arrive at this title? When I try thinking about a title for my story, I picture different places and place two ideas together for the setting of where it will be or I come up with the personalities of my characters to get settled on the names for them. I have a creative imagination and use it to my advantage when I have a plot in mind.

You did an excellent job doing an outline for your story. It was impressive! It encouraged me to do the same thing.

The last part of your outline is read as follows:

Adventures and Legends

Eryndor is a land ripe for adventure. From the quest to uncover ancient magical artifacts discovered in the ruins scattered across the land to the defense of a village from a marauding dragon, the opportunities for heroism and exploration are endless. Legends speak of a hidden realm beyond the Endless Desert, where the secrets of the world's creation are kept, and a prophecy that foretells the story about a great upheaval that will change Eryndor forever.

This is just a glimpse into the world of Eryndor, a canvas for endless stories and adventures. Each region holds its secrets and stories waiting to be discovered and told.

I changed some words in the last paragraph that I believe will be helpful to you. See what you think.


I am thinking about what happens next at Eryndor. I look forward to reading about it. Is this an outline for the NaNoWriMo Contest? It would be a good story for that. I am considering trying for this contest.

I hope you have blessings of good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. I encourage you to keep up with your writing. You have a great start for a story.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I read your political poem "Mendacious Mediocracy" and will gladly review it. Although I am not a review professional, I'll provide you with feedback on how your poem has impacted me.

The first two stanzas of your poem read as follows:

Important rage is inspired
by the pathetic presentation of a perfidious
opportunity to pick a political winner
one who actually cares about
anyone other than themselves

promising the earth
paradise too perhaps
so many good things when you vote for them
more of what you want
much more of what you need
piecrusts

I have two suggestions for making your poem sound better. They are as follows:

1. Remove the word actually on the fourth line of the first stanza:

Instead of one who actually cares about to one who cares about

2. The third line in the second stanza should be as follows:

Instead of so many good things when you vote for them, it should be there are so many
good things when you vote for them.

The last line when the word piecrusts was used sounded interesting to me. I haven't seen it used in that context before.

I enjoyed reading your poem. You said a lot in those 27 lines. It made a lot of sense to me. I agree with what you said. I am looking forward to reading more of your poems. I like the way you write. I don't understand politics; it isn't easy for anyone to understand. The politicians do lie a lot. They promise things you don't get and pass bills on things people don't know anything about and don't care to read up on issues. I am trying to learn; it just doesn't make much sense.

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

I have a few suggestions on how to make your poem sound better. I hope my suggestions will be of benefit to you.

When I think about you,
It reminds me of the elusive verses;
love letters drafted yet never sent,
dwells in the corners of my heart.

Engraved deep inside my soul
beheld an ethereal secret
which I shall remember to bear
with me until my final breath.

Perhaps I loved you more, just to
let you go, I yearned for your
essence in another, yet knowing
he would never be you.

Hello, and good evening to you!

I read your story of inspiration "Fake It Till You Make It"., and I will do my best to give you a review. I am not a review professional, however, I can provide you with feedback on how your story made an impression on me.

The part of your story that interested me is as follows:

I just sat up and let my legs hang off the side of the bed for a minute while my body got acquainted with this unusually welcomed morning. I desired coffee, mixed with some vanilla a little in. I look forward to what the day is going to bring me. Who will I meet, can I remain genuine and confident within myself? I will challenge myself to take it slow today, to experience the day and its moments as they come, without making judgments and creating unfair expectations from lines that lead to negative feelings about myself or others. I will practice patience in the face of frustration and anger. I will solve problems with kindness and common sense.

I will allow opportunities to rise to take hold of me and carry me toward great things. I am eager to learn new things no matter how the delivery of the lesson is received. I will analyze and recover as much information as I can to help my character grow into a loving and intelligent vessel. Today I choose to be a small light in a dark room.

It was inspiring to me since I take the medication, Wellbutrin, myself. I take Aripiprazole (the generic version of Abilify) along with it. They work well together. They were like miracle drugs to me. My life changed for the better when I got on them.

I encourage you to keep on writing. Writing is good therapy and you write very well.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime.

Hello, and good afternoon to you!

I read your writing "Death Unexpected". I will give you a review of how your story had on me. I am not a review professional, however, I will gladly provide feedback on how I felt after reading your story.

I enjoyed the mystery shows "Columbo", Murder She Wrote, The Nancy Drew Mysteries, "Get Smart" and so forth. My preference is to read a good mystery or murder story rather than having to watch it on television or at a movie theater. The reason is I don't like to see bloody murder scenes and gory details. They end up leaving me with a scary feeling inside. My stomach ends up being queasy and in knots. I don't care for this kind of sensation in my stomach. It puts me on edge.

I look forward to picking up "Death Unexpected"; it sounds like a good book.

I had an unexpected experience when a special boyfriend of mine passed away in front of me. He was excited about serving me a sandwich he made. He opened the refrigerator, looked at me, stepped back a bit, and said, "I can't breathe", and just like that, he died. I was so shocked that I froze up; I wouldn't say anything to anybody.

I want to encourage you to keep up with your writing. You would be a natural at writing a great mystery.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone deserves to have this.

Hello, and good morning to you!

I have read your fantasy story "Crown of Thornes (Intro)", and excitedly, I will do a review for you. I am not a review professional, but I do my best. I give feedback on how I felt after reading your story.

I am impressed with your story. I enjoyed reading it. Your words flowed well. I didn't see any mistakes. You have a way with words. People can easily get into your story by eagerly wanting to read the next chapter.

I look forward to reading more of your story. I don't understand fantasy too well, but my interest was piqued. I watched the original versions of "Star Trek" and "Star Trek, The Next Generation". I can go back as far as watching "My Favorite Martian" and "Lost in Space". I enjoyed watching these shows as well.

I have had fantasies of wanting to go to space, but I wouldn't want to try it in real life since I am afraid of heights and the speed it takes to travel there. It's nice to dream about it though.

I encourage you to keep up with your writing. I'm sure teenagers would enjoy your story. You've done a great job presenting it.

I hope you will have blessings of good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last your lifetime. Everyone deserves to have this.

Hello, and good afternoon to you!

I read your monologue comedy version of "Angelina Ballerina" and am excited to give you a review. I am not a review professional, but I will do my best to provide feedback on how much it impacted me after reading your story; it piqued my curiosity and intrigue.

No, I haven't read the books or seen the movies about "Angeline Ballerina". Sounds like it's a good comedy. What do you enjoy most about the classic version? What parts, if any, did you like about the updated version? I know you mentioned liking the clothes she wore in the classic version. It would be interesting to learn more about her character. And, I would like to hear more about William's character. You said everyone had a crush on him. He must have had a time of it chasing all the girls away.

I look forward to hearing more about the characters in this monologue. If you have the time to share more, please do.

It's fascinating to go back to the past when things were a lot different; no phones, no television, different styles of clothing, and different hairdos. Comparing those times to modern times can be shocking to some of us, who consider us old-timers. I don't know if you would consider me as a 67-year-old to be an old-timer. They refer to the music of our age as the Golden Oldies. In the newer generation's minds, our music is outdated. I still enjoy the music of the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, etc. Current music that's been changed from the older version ruins the song, then, there have been those who have improved the older version.

Times have changed a lot since my generation. I called it the Feel Good Music era. Today it seems to all be about sex and violence.

I hope you are blessed with good memories, good health, friendships, love, and happiness to last the rest of your life. Everyone deserves to have this.

I encourage you to keep up on your writing. I can use a good comedy.
