Review of Dramatis Personae  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with disABILITY WRITERS GROUP  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | N/A (Review only item.)
Great work! This has potential world building for a novel. Each name fits its location. Not all might be used but each of them are important per location. I can see them mixing and mingling with one another. I don't think voice and characterization is the focus here. It's just a list to look at. Good job and keep up the good work!

Names are spelled your way so I'm not judging spelling and grammar here.

This is a funny poem. Great details! It implies a tragic event occurred in delivering the cake. The cake was too tall. Croissants should have been delivered instead. Great use of imagery in so few words. It's nice to see the previous version too. Voice is smooth and natural. Characters are believable and realistic. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the great work!

You stayed true to the prompt and wrote what the song felt for you. It is a different kind of music video than what I'm used to too. I feel it does have an upbeat tone. Looking forward to the future even when the present isn't going well. My suggestion is just a link to the note so someone would know what music video you're talking about. Good observations. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! The person recognized the poem is long yet can't stop speaking about what they view despite different opinions. They asked their parents, siblings, and peers to get the same answers. One way or another it's just them being them. Voice is natural and smooth. Character is believable and realistic. I enjoyed the voice. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work.

Great job with the details! Short and full of life! Things that can be related to what you did at Squantz Pond. First you described gazing, then you described dreaming, and last you described weeping. Voice is smooth and natural. I didn't meet any bumps. Characterization is believable and realistic. No spelling or grammar errors. It goes along with the voice. Rhyming blends in well. Good job and keep up the good work! I enjoyed this. Welcome to WDC!

Interesting choice! These fit to the theme of native names on the states of United States. I know some people love word searches too. I am one of them but don't get around to play them often. They are entertaining and fun. No spelling or grammar errors found. Great job and keep up the good work!

Yes some of the translations makes the name a funny name to have for a town. Great work and great choices! I'm not a German speaker so trusting your translation. I thought of a great sentence to use using some of the names. Pretty hilarious. No spelling or grammar errors detected. Good job and keep up the great work!

Great details! Kieran started out in a dangerous situation and, after falling off the cliff, got saved by the dragon and then went to help her comrades after the dragon defeated those Vawwn. Then her comrades were fighting and the dragon finished off the battle. They went over and discovered children in the wagon scared to death. Voice is natural and smooth. The narrator showed these events with action. Characters are realistic and believable. Doing something even when they were suppose to wait for the dragon for example. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the great work!

Review of It's All Fine  Open in new Window.

Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Clever use of the prompt! Great details! Some says they are fine but deep inside hiding the pain of their difficulties. Then it goes reversed to say difficulties cause the pain to hide deep smiles and yet some say they are fine. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters are believable and realistic. Showing that smile isn't real. Or real smiles are hidden. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great dialogue! And details! At first we don't know who is speaking or why but then we find out who and why. Good way to start it. Alicia received a homemade cake from her mom and Harold acts as a third party arguing on mom's side. Then mom's husband came in in the end. Voice is smooth and natural. Prompt is followed perfectly. Characters is believable and realistic. No spelling and grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work! It's a great way to describe a birthday surprise to a daughter.

Review of Sinkhole  Open in new Window.

Rated: 13+ | (5.0)
Great details! Marge and Kevin are together and Kevin wanted to buy the land in the swamp. Marge kept getting nightmares and Kevin kept ignoring the warnings. The land was a burial ground for the Native Americans. Then suddenly the sinking happened and Marge was rescued, but not Kevin. Interesting fate. Voice is natural and smooth. The horror part is there I believe. (Not as familiar with horror genre but read a few.) The prompt is followed. The characters are realistic and believable. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Maggie fights to resist her husband's plea to come to him and fights until she gives up at the very end. This is a sad story yet a powerful one too. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters are realistic and believable. There may have been a prompt to follow I didn't check it out, but I think fits the nature of the contest. Dark and Romance combined. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Josh is a kindhearted dragon slayer who is reluctant to slay a dragon (following the prompt) and has a friend Charlie to plan a spaghetti prank. This story made me smile and I was glad it had a happy ending where the dragon was no longer wanted to be killed in the end. The voice is natural and smooth. Characters is realistic and believable. Good job and keep up the good work!

Josh would prefer befriending the dragon and reading it books, Suggestion: its books

Great details! It's about a snail who was fluent in dice but had no one to write to kept accruing taxes year after year until they got a letter in the mail. How funny! It is short and to the point. Each word counted. The shape is a clever one. I'm not sure I can guess what it is except it looks like a pen quill. The form is used correctly and the prompt is followed. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters is realistic and believable. No grammar or spelling errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Shape has a name but that name just isn't hitting me. It seems I should know what it is. Fun to try and guess.

Review of It Didn't Snow  Open in new Window.
In affiliation with disABILITY WRITERS GROUP  Open in new Window.
Rated: 13+ | N/A (Review only item.)
Great details! The focus was on how it didn't snow as these things passed by and a loved one passed on and it finally snowed. The question of balance lingers in the air. Voice is natural and smooth. No prompt for this contest I don't believe so anything works as long as it's free verse. Good job there. Characters are realistic and believable- the speaker and their loved one. No spelling or grammar errors found. The poem reads smoothly and I have no suggestions for improvements. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! This poem is all about thanks in honor of service being provided. It starts out with a gift in remembrance of something with a card being sent and then the fourth line of the stanza. It ties in well with the prompt. Family focus seems to be a theme that could describe it. The poem is general for the most part. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! It starts out describing the bank and then move to what the elves calls her and then about the elves. Ends talking about Emily in the world you will see her in. Voice is natural and smooth. I found this poem funny with its humor throughout. Structure is good and it is consistent. One scene flows nicely into the next. Characters is believable and realistic. I love Emily and the elves too. Great hook, pondering over who or where to start out first with. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!
