I rarely read Harry Potter fan fiction, but this seems to get off to a really interesting start. Your description of the character’s appearance and attributes is sufficiently detailed as to pique the reader’s interest in the subject matter. Well done, keep up the great work!

Review of To My Door .II.  Open in new Window.
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
This is an interesting poem. Despite its being rather dark, I like it for its unique perspective and unusual themes. I particularly enjoyed the level of detail you put into it, even thought this might make it hard for some people to understand what you mean. Nicely done, keep up the great work!

Review of Papa's Fence  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (3.0)
This piece could use some better paragraph structure. It's kind of hard to read when the flow of the narrative is not properly spaced out. That said, this is a good start, I'd like to read more about papa's fence and the main character's adventures. Nice work!

Review of A Horse Of Legend  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
I don't know anything about horse racing. However, it is a tribute to the efficacy of your writing that this piece made me excited about the topic thanks to your detailed descriptions. This is difficult for a writer to accomplish, so well done, and keep up the great work!

As a portfolio design, this is pretty good, though I would encourage you to add more content so that you can diversify your repertoire of written work, and people can get a better understanding of what kind of writer you really want to be. Nicely done.

Review of Getting ready  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (4.0)
Most authors aren't so bold as to tackle a subject as complicated as love, so I commend your decision to do so. Your description of the woman's nervousness and appearance is very vivid and paints a picture in the reader's mind. Nicely done, keep up the great work!

This is an unusual piece, but I liked it. I particularly liked that you chose the seasons as the subject for this poem. Your descriptions of hot cocoa, fire, burning leaves, and the chilly breeze are very vivid. Nicely done, keep up the excellent work.

This was an unusual piece, but I liked it. Your description of the characters dancing is very vivid. I particularly liked your description of seagulls wheeling, and aching, singing into the night. Overall, it was a good piece, so keep up the good work.

Review of Galleys  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (3.0)
Haikus are a particularly tricky style of poem to get right, so I have to commend you for this effort. I particularly liked that you chose the seasons as the subject for this poem, because most writers don't choose such an abstract subject to write about. Good job.

Review of Zippy  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (4.0)
This was a fun, cute little story that made me laugh! I can easily see Zippy being the subject of a children's picture book, with other books explaining the rise of other animal species in a similar manner. You did well here, keep up the excellent work!

Review of Bridled Passions  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (4.5)
I've never read a kyrielle before, so thank you for introducing me to this interesting art form. You describe the author's emotions very well. I especially liked your references to "bridled passions" and "bewitching smiles." It really creates a picture in the reader's mind. Well done!

Review of The Caged Bird  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
I was genuinely distressed that this poem ended on a sad note! That you were able to elicit such a reaction from me is a tribute to the quality of this piece. That you were able to do so while maintaining a rhyme scheme is also indicative of prodigious skill. Well done!

Review of Numb  Open in new Window.
Rated: 13+ | (3.0)
I've never read a poem about silence before, so I wasn't sure that there was enough substance to this subject to write an entire poem. Yet, you manage to do a good job here, though some might say that you used the word loud too much. Good job overall, though.

Review of Purity  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
I've never reviewed a poem with an accompanying image before, so this was a new experience for me. This poem does a good job of portraying the bond between parent and child and the child's emotional reactions and dreams. Nicely done, keep up the great work!

Review of A Rose  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Most poets don't take the time to write about the simpler things in life so it's refreshing to see you write about something as simple yet elegant as the humble garden rose. Plus, the rhyme scheme here is creative. Nicely done and keep up the great work!

Writers generally don't tend to cover macabre subjects like starvation in their work, so I commend you for having the courage to try and tackle it instead of subject matter that would be easier and decidedly less grim. Well done and keep up the excellent work!

Review of Healing  Open in new Window.
Rated: 13+ | (4.0)
Only the most skilled and ambitious writers can successfully capture a melancholy subject in their writing in a way that resonates with the reader, so kudos for the attempt. I particularly liked the last line about the shards going into the forge of understanding and healing.

This is a decent start, but it's rather simply written and short for an introductory chapter. Why are "fairytale people" such a threat. What does this magic mirror do? Why did this evil warlock want to kill Genevieve? This chapter would benefit from more detail

Review of Christmas Candle  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (3.0)
I've never seen a poem in this form before so that was a nice touch. Not only does it get the message across, it is even structured to look like a candle. Despite its simplicity, this poem is nice because it conveys the Christmas spirit nicely. Well done!

Review of Newgrange  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
I've never read a poem about Irish culture, so I found this piece to be particularly refreshing because it was infused with references to Irish cultural references that make it an interesting learning experience for the reader. Nicely done, keep it up!

I feel like there's more to be said about this issue that the reader is not quite getting. While I appreciate the emotion behind this piece, I find it difficult to relate to the author without more information about what exactly he/she finds so distressing.

Review of The Fishing Date  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
Even though this is a very short piece, it actually does a pretty good job of giving the reader a poignant glimpse into the bond between parent and child enjoying a camping trip. I particularly liked the descriptions of the roasting marshmallows and the fireflies.

The detailed descriptions of "me Uncle Packy", complete with the "creaky sofa" with its "gnarly lumps" really creates a picture in the readers' mind about the writer's "unforgettable summer" spent with his aunt Semla and uncle Packy. Keep up the great work!

Review of What Waits Inside  Open in new Window.
Rated: E | (5.0)
It is rare to see a poem that describes the difficulties of the writing process in such a clever and witty manner. I particularly liked the comparisons between writing and childbirth, and the comparison between the writer and the surgeon. Nicely done!
