Short Story / chronic dislocation
I write my reviews kind of oddly.I hope you don't mind it. I write down comments while I'm reading it, sor of giving you a play-by-play: -The first thing that pops out at me is the grammar (ha! I'm one to talk, right?), basically it just needs some capitalization at the start of all the sentences. -It's very visual, that's good. -Lotta detail. -Hmm, it was an odd choice to write it in the present tense. It's okay, it's just that were used to hearing things like "Vincent sat quietly" not "Vinc...
Flash Fiction / Encounter
I review things a bit oddly. I tend to make notes while I write in order to sort of give you a play-by-play of what the reader is thinking: -sun shouldn't be capitalized. -maybe a little more description of the scenery would work well -should be "knew" not "know" -good tone of the story. very warm and whatnot -mediocre twist ending, not necessarily in synch with the rest of the story, you may want to change that. All and all, it's a very pleasant story, although the ending seemed a bit out of...

Children's / Prologue
I review things a bit oddly. I tend to make notes while I write in order to sort of give you a play-by-play of what the reader is thinking: -I agree that it's a little dark, but it doesn't seem too bad yet to frighten away the young ones, that's good. And the mood being set nicely, also good. -Ouch, that "Levitae" bit seems a bit too Harry Potterish. I mean, that's a great series, but there should never be too big of a similarity between works. -Yeah, it's sounding even more Harry Potterish. ...
Humor/Satire / Six word memoir
Very well done. While I would not classify it as "humor/satire" it is very good for a six word story. These are very difficult to write, and I think you were able to articulate a story, or at least a situation very well.
Flash Fiction / Yesterday and Today
Removed
I review things a bit oddly. I tend to make notes while I write in order to sort of give you a play-by-play of what the reader is thinking: -First sentence is a bit convoluted and hard to understand. Maybe if you split it into two sentences, yeah? -Oh, I like it. -I swear, this is the first flash fiction I've seen that isn't a bunch of goddamn nonsensical long words strung together in an attemp to sound deep. THANK GOD! -Very mysterious, but a bit scary. Could use a bit more tension, I think....
Flash Fiction / Drabble 2 - You Can Run
I review things a bit oddly. I tend to make notes while I write in order to sort of give you a play-by-play of what the reader is thinking: -Good opening. -The sentence that starts "At least the brownish..." is a bit confusing to me. How does it apply to the story? -No. Poor ending. I know you were going for a surprising twist, but it seems a unprepared for and pointless as it currently stands. -Also, you introduce all sorts of species and settings when you have so little time. When you only ...
I review things a bit oddly. I tend to make notes while I write in order to sort of give you a play-by-play of what the reader is thinking: -Forgot a space between "listened,I never" in the second sentence. -Wrong usage of a comma between "rude by, cutting." -Sounds like some manner of psychiatrist/patient relationship. However, it's not very clear. You may want to do something about that. -The last bit was very well done. You know: the suicide and the stopping in mid-sentence. All and all, a...
Flash Fiction / Six Words Boy Talk
I'm not a big fan of this. Seems a little too artsy and shit for me. Sorry, I'm not trying to be rude or anything. It just doesn't make sense to me.
Flash Fiction / LAMENT
Very good. You didn't use any colons or semi-colons like a lot of the other six-word-stories. And it feels light and easy to understand. Also sounds very personal. Anywho, very good piece.
