{size:3.5{b}}My Impressions of: Stogy Performances come Alive{/b}

This is only one opinion: The author offers their opinion of people and things that were boring in early life. Then they became more lively and popular in later years. The author implies that they had a pretty popular early life and became bored in later years and stuck in a dull routine.
The author points out how some people in later life remain energetic and outgoing. The author implies that they missed out on true love. Old fashioned love, morals and values with long time commitment and loyalty to each other.
I hope it's not too late for you to still find that old fashioned Love Song type of love. This reader has noticed a drastic difference in generations, like night and day. The younger people today seem totally different than they were when I was young. People usually were married at least once by the time they were in their early twenties and quite a few of them lasted. Today's younger generation don't seem interested in that kind of Commitment and marriage until maybe their late thirties. I don't really know the reasons, maybe there's not a good ratio of men to women or vice versa. Maybe it is just because today's society seems to have lost any values and morals that were pounded into our heads by our parents and grandparents. Society is to Liberal and accepting of everything quiet often display things in public that would be better left than private. take TV shows today they would have been x-rated when I was younger.
I really do not know why, only that there is a world of difference. History tends to show patterns similar to this have existed throughout time. I praise the Lord I was born in the time I was. I might not have felt that way then, the grass always looks greener on the other side.
Okay, I didn't really understand this article, but I have to say it must have been strong because it has caused me to start ranting trying to be a philosopher. :)

My Impressions of: rachel

This is only one opinion: It is so hard to lose a family member. Things we took for granted so long we can't do any more. So many regrets yet we must try to look to the bright side. No more pain, sickness or sorrow. Her page has turned to the next chapter. I am sorry for your loss.

My Impressions of: Into the Obscure: Ambiguity Chapter 3

Adventure, spy story with Dawn,Joseph,Debora,Gabriela
and Lee fighting their way through.

This is only one opinion: A good idea. I feel like this story has great potential. A long chapter with much for the reader to keep up with. Strong characters with plenty of dialogue. Strong Narrative and great storyline. Too much for this reader to keep up with and loses his attention early in this long chapter before the storyline starts to unfold. I found about the middle to end of the second half of the chapter to hold my attention better. A lot of today's readers may not make it that far.
Suggestions: I know this is a draft of a work in progress, Consider breaking it down to shorter chapters making it less intimidating for the reader. Add more description. Constant dialogue between this many characters confuses the story.

Review of Star

y Impressions of: Star

A nicely written short story about boys and girls' nature..

This is only one opinion: Nicely written short story about young kids and how they react to the opposite sex. It is funny how as young kids the girl or boy we like is the one we will act as if we hate giving us reason to interact. There is a thin line between love and hate. Why? Because the emotion is so strong it can turn from one extreme to the other, staying in a strong state. Well this is a strong story it has got me trying to philosophize. I like it, the story is short, simple and straight to the point. Just how today's reader likes everything. In today's fast-paced society there is no time to waste on unimportant details.

{{size:3.5}b}My Impressions of: Terabytes and Graphene {/b}

A romance between AI’s set in futuristic settings, with Krim and Amber.

This is only one opinion: Starts out like a romance between Krim and Amber. Ironically, computer generated AI’s experimenting with emotions. They both seem a bit too arrogant to realize their turning human. Strong characters and dialogue for this story with a nice twist at the end. Holds the reader's attention well and leaves him wanting more. Well written.

My Impressions of: Virus Protection using Common Sense

Informative article explaining how viruses can affect the open skin
as well as mouth and nose. Detailing that a mask covering up your
mouth and nose is not enough.

This is only one opinion: Bob and Julie are good characters, well detailed
information about virus protection. Educational newsletter style article. Unfortunately common sense seems to be a lost art with many people.

Review of Flash Prayers

My Impressions of: Flash Prayers
A short poem giving praise to God.
The author’s strong faith in the power of Prayer can be felt.

This is only one opinion: Strong, spiritual and emotional poem.
The power of prayer is indeed strong. A daily test of our faith.
Nicely written and refreshing, I enjoyed this. Thank you.

Suggestions: The last line is out of the acrostic format with the rest.
I think that you meant for the a in the first line to go in the fourth line,
A guiding hand instead of a lightning.

My Impressions of: "A Reunion in Heaven"

An emotional spiritual poem. The author has a strong faith
which can be clearly felt from this short poem. Those few
words reflect the author's belief in an afterlife in heaven with loved ones as well as the heavenly host. Faith so strong that death is not feared instead welcomed as the opening of the next chapter in the Book of Life.
A well written poem that says a lot in a few words.

My Impressions of: Hook to Book Round 3 Sheriff Sam Rabbit

A fantasy children's story about the fictional Sheriff Sam Rabbit.
A unique story written in a humorous Style.
Written as the title suggest


This is only one opinion: A nice and funny children's story holding the reader's attention well from start to finish. Strong characters like Kat the rhyming rat. Good descriptions make it easy to visualize this animated setting for Sheriff rabbit. Sam is easy for the reader to relate to; he must project his persona even though a bit unsure about himself. Good dialogue between characters makes it easy for children to understand this storyline.

Suggestions: With the short attention span of today's reader you might consider breaking the chapters down to fewer words per chapter making it less intimidating for the reader. Consider ending the story with a hint of another mystery to leave the reader wanting more, for a series with these strong characters and narrative.
Keep writing !

Realistic short story about an arrogant actor.

This is only one opinion: A funny story sounds very realistic as if it could be true. I like the font. I'm glad I'm not a handsome man. :) Our society does really spoil their idols,Even though I know they are I hope there's not really people like that. This is an emotional and strong story.

Suggestions: Never hurts to do a good proofreading. I think I might have seen a couple typos.

My Impressions of: In my Aloneness

A short story written in Poetic Style.

This is only one opinion: Nicely written poem. Reads a bit like a stressed out person venting. A bit spiritual the writer is of strong faith. It is those hard alone times that help mold us into who we are. With time we can look back and see how those times did strengthen us.
A strong writing that got me to philosophizing.
Suggestions: Never can hurt to do a good proofread and edit. Maybe a few punctuation errors and there is a misspelling of aloneness toward the end.

My Impressions of: Coconut Oil Cleanse

Short story about Sam's wife Maria Lee getting sick then using a coconut oil cleanse to treat
her ailment.

This is only one opinion: I like that you used the name Sam Adams, I don't know if it has any relation to Sam Adams beer. A good idea, nicely written.

Suggestions: Seems to be an extra period right before living in Korea. At the end of the second paragraph seems to need a comma or edit.

My impressions of: Entro to the Obscure: Ambiguity

A story about Dawn Archambault, a secret agent for the WSC.

Among my favorite lines: It's working. Of course, it's working. Lying, is part of my profession...

This is only one opinion: Well written with a good storyline, strong characters, good dialog.
I like the nurse and Abby. Good descriptions. I feel like the storyline has great potential.
I hate that Abby got wounded in Operation Dis. I’m glad Dawn is the leader for
the new operation. I realize this is a draft, there is a lot of good information for the reader to try and absorb. Well done, a great idea for an epic adventure story.

Suggestions: Today's reader seems to have a short attention span, liking to get straight to the point. Consider spreading the story out into shorter chapters, to help the reader absorb all the information. Think about letting the title give the reader a better idea of the story.
Keep Writing.

Review of Tide's End

My impressions of: Tides End

A tranquil story about a small fishing village on the coast of Maine where James gets inspired to become an author. He then writes a successful novel about the quaint little fishing Village Tides End. The Author Describes the village so well that you can see Dot's Diner and want a taste of the clam chowder while viewing the bright light from the lighthouse with Harrold the keeper of the light, standing nearby.
This is only one opinion: Great descriptions with strong characters, reads well. The story brings back memories of fishing as a kid.
Suggestions: For me, Paragraph two just did not flow as well as the rest of the story.

My impressions of: To a Brave American Soldier

Hi Jeanne, this title caught my attention as I was scrolling through for WDC SuperPowers Reviewers - member to member revue raid.
I love this story. Nice introduction with such great descriptions of your farm in Minnesota. I feel sure the soldiers appreciated your letter.
Great descriptions, you paint such a visual picture with your words. I can see The sheep grazing on your farm with Louie and Bow nearby.

My favorite line: It makes for quite a picturesque setting with the white sheep grazing on the green pastures.

It brought back many memories of growing up on Grandpa's farm, where he and grandma grew everything that would grow in the region. One of his daughters, Aunt Mable, was also a farmer. I used to help her whenever I could. She raised cows and peacocks for as long as I can remember. She went through phases of other rare birds for this area at the time. Chinese Chickens, and Emus were some of the most memorable. Emus are mean.
Carved in my memory is the time she had some peacocks sold, she offered me and my cousins $5 for each peacock we could catch. It's easy, she said. All you have to do is wait for them to Roost and then climb up the tree and grab them by their feet. A peacock is a huge bird for a 9 or 10 year old boy halfway up a tree in the dark. I grabbed its feet, it tried to carry me away, until I let go. I could go on forever remembering some of those adventures.
Your story is strong. It got made to reminiscing and ranting. Thank you. I most enjoyed this story and look forward to reading some more.
Keep Writing.

My impressions of: (2 of 4) The Brothers

My favorite lines:- "In many individual instances of this creature called man, we find a sort of ignorance which manifests in a brutish sort of fellow. He is like a horse, each is taught what is required of him by society by the carrot and the stick. He is rewarded with the carrot and punished by the stick.-

-Humans are the first form of life to fly independent of biological evolution.-

-Man has accomplished so much so quickly to the credit of the heightened capability within the mind-

This is only one opinion: A good story exploring brotherhood from both religious and scientific views. Realistic dialogue gives the story a good flow. I like the references to man being the first to fly independently of biographical evolution.

This is only one opinion: I noticed certain phrases in bold and assumed they were probably prompts. Realistic story with strong characters.

Brings back memories of camping in the woods.

My impressions of: The Geocache

This is only one opinion: Well written story with strong characters and descriptions. True stories about life events have always fascinated me. They can be the hardest to write, trying to capture all the details just perfectly. I like this story. Hiking old river beds and collecting rocks Is among my favorite pastimes. While hiking I often find myself led to pick up a certain rock for no reason except the rock has a story it wants to tell.
This is a strong story that has awoken the philosopher. Thank you, I enjoyed reading this.
