I'm the lead editor for a small independent press, but I am on maternity leave for the next several years and thus not accepting submissions. I'll tell you my professional opinion on first chapters or short pieces and whether I would have accepted it or rejected it if I was looking for work. I've dealt most with controversial speculative fiction, and I'm most interested in polyamory a.k.a consensual non-monogamy.

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This provides a lot of food for thought. I think our confidence in love has a lot to do with how we were loved unconditionally (or not) as children by our parents.

Happy writing, and I hope you enjoy it here!

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

I used my internet browser to translate this to English, so I will not comment on the grammar. This has a very intriguing title, but I have difficulty understanding the rest of it.

Review of Empty

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

Is this meant to be a test piece or a placeholder? I recommend drafting your story in a separate program such as MS Word, Open Office, or Google Docs and then copying and pasting it when you are ready to share it.

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

You've left just enough mystery here to tickle the reader's imagination. The knife could be a completely innocent, sentimental treasure. However, its nature as a potential instrument of destruction leaves some questions.

Review of Childhood Fun

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This gives me a burst of nostalgia for my elementary school years. The world was so full of wonder back then, and I can still see it that way, but it takes more effort now.

Welcome! I stumbled upon your work through the “read a newbie” feature.

This is an amazing story. However, I still advise caution. I've been on a date with someone who seemed great online, but I didn't click with him in-person at all. I've spoken with several obvious scammers as well. Ask yourself how well you really know him. Have you spoken with his friends? Has he spoken with your friends? How does he react when you mention your friends? Abusers often try to isolate their victims from friends so they have nowhere to run when their true colors are revealed. Is he asking you to travel a long distance all by yourself? Set up some reasonable safety rules for yourself and don't deviate from them.

When I got married in 2018, I married someone I knew in high school. He graduated in 2006, and I graduated in 2007. That's not the remarkable part, though. The remarkable part is that one of my online friends flew all the way from Wales to California to be my maid of honor. She brought a traveling companion for safety, which was absolutely the right decision. My husband, his brother, and I burst out singing "50 Nifty United States" when they finally walked out of customs.

This might indeed turn out wonderfully for you, but please keep a healthy sense of caution as you proceed.

This reminds me of my first love and the experiences that followed with him constantly on my mind. It has been about 15 years now, and I no longer thing of him daily, but I certainly think of him weekly.

This brings back unpleasant memories of my own toxic 5-year relationship. Thankfully, I had enough friends to help light the path out of it.
