Non-fiction / Why I love it
This is good but I wonder if it wouldn't be stronger if you used the "words" instead of imagination. And possibly the use of dashes instead of commas for more impact. Go anywhere -- be anyone -- with words. It does work as you have it, but I'm thinking imagination could just be dreaming as opposed to actually writing, and since your title is Why I Love It, I'm assuming you mean writing. Just my two cents but definitely decent as is if you don't want to tweak it. Best, Robin
Poetry / Six Word Memoir
Fantastic! It says so much in six words...it has everything - humor, disgust, boredom...I absolutely love this. I know it's a "bad" review in that I can't critique it...but really, I wouldn't change a word. Best one I've read yet...just as I was starting to think I needed to leave this site.
Journal, Diary, & Blogging / Writing
Hilarious. And for some unfortunate writer pals of mine, it could even be Three years writing; ten years editing. One of the better six words I've read on this site. I have no critique other than "good job". Thank God. xo Robin
Short Story / life with love
I think I get this - I'm taking it the funny way like they are a couple splitting up but I'm not sure. That being said, if you do mean it that way, maybe make it a little more clear by saying something like "I love you, hey, that's mine!" Of course I could have misunderstood your point altogether and you may have been talking about his/her heart, soul, etc. But if it is, again, it should be made just a bit clearer. I gave you my gut reaction - not sure if others will agree or not...but if you...
Sad but true. How about tweaking the "years and years" part for a little versatility. Overnight success takes lots of years. Overnight success usually takes a decade Overnight success usually means a decade. Etc. Good job as is, though. xo Rob
