Comment Exchanges

If you want a comment or a review, just post a little memo on here. Just remember, if someone asks you to review their story in exchange, to do so. This is an easy way to help each other out for mutual benefit. If you are not comfortable reading someone's story, you may turn it down kindly. That said, please do try to keep the exchange running correctly. Give helpful and constructive comments, and do not just turn down a story because it is a different genre, or any other silly reason. The goal of this is to help and receive help. So starts the comment exchange!

  • Read and reviewed! I took notes as I went, so if the comment is ridiculously long, just don't freak out...it's not as much as it seems!

    Thanks for the review on my story, and I hope I could help your own along!

  • Tigress, I read Chapter One for Blood Trail and you did well with it. The details were good, you already had a nice layout for Lilith's character development and her broken relationship with her father. In all, I thought you did a nice job. Well done.

  • It was super cute, though I think I've said that at least three times already. I could tell pretty quickly how the characters reacted and related to each other, and their personalities, even in that short little blurb. I might be able to read it again this week and give a bit more critisism...

    And do you guys also mind sharing your thoughts on my Cube fan-fiction over on FanFiction.net, too? I'd like to know how I'm doing with that, too.

  • Mindy, Keely and Amber I'd love to read your stories when I get the chance. As it is, I'm super busy so you may have to wait until January (plus I have a LOT of other things I have to read as well). My story is Blood Trail (I haven't updated lately because like I mentioned before I'm just so overwhelmed with life at the moment) but I'd appreciate comments on the 11 chapters I've written so far. Thanks!

  • Oh, man. This doesn't make links live... I'd suggest typing the Bitly link of my Cube fan-fiction that I provided into the address bar. I made the link on my phone, so you might want to change it to the desktop mode, unless you are on you're phone, obviously.

  • I have a new story! (am still working on the other one)

    But this one is more of a romance :)

    SO, here's the summary!

    After Ashton's mother died when he was seven his whole world turned upside down. He never expected that a girl in Pink Converse Tennis shoes would turn his world around... and make it all the better

    It Is set in older times, like before electricity and all that, so i know the shoes couldn't exist back then, but hey. I'm the writer, right?

    And I will be willing to do a review exchange if the story meets my requirements.

    I HATE sounding like a finicky whiner, but there's some things i DON"T get into. I hope you understand that.

    Check my profile for Specifications!

    Laterz!

  • If someone could take a look at "Drax & Mag: Unfamiliars", I'd be greatful to review back. Two chapters so far.

    Description: 

    Azadraxiel is a minor familiar demon that rather likes the earth. The Weirder who had summoned and bound her, one Bridget Cleary, was murdered by her husband when he discovered her practices, and instead of returning to Hell on the completion of Bridget's Contract, Azadraxiel, stole the body of her former master as her Ark (she'd been using a goat before) and lived on for hundreds of years as Bridget, on the Infernal Equivalent of an expired passport. She posed as progressively further removed descendants of the real Bridget the Burned, and practiced as a demonologist and Weirder, working under the nose of the Red Order--once known as the Inquisition. Using a loophole in the standard Contract of binding Familiars to their masters, she works to summon her sister, Magraxiel, to the mortal coil. 
    ow, the aether is buzzing with news. 
    News of something big about to happen. 
    Something Biblical. 
    Something using words like "Ark" and "Covenant". 
    ...And "Final".

  • Hello! I've been working on a story that I'm feeling pretty good about, and I was hoping that someone could look at it for me to tell me if there's anything I could improve. In exchange, I'll also leave a comment on that person's work(s?).

    The story is called Tremors, and here's the (extended summary):

    She is plagued by earthquakes. He is her constant savior. He is a misdialed number.

    This is a record of their talks together.

    Erunai and Kenji live in an apartment together. He is a well-known author, and she is a first-year geophysics major. During the day they exchange loving banter and occasionally philosophical whims, but at night, unbeknownst to her her, Erunai keeps him awake with panic attacks. Come morning she has no recollection of them, but he is worried for her and tries to find a cure to her condition. Then, after tragedy strikes, she accidentally calls him.

    Be warned: I'm experimenting with a different writing style, so about 96%-97% will be just dialogue. I'm curious to see what people think of it, so please tell me if it becomes confusing or any other opinion you might have of it! If you find you dislike it, don't worry because I'm planning on writing another version of the story in the regular story format.

    Here's the link: http://sparkatale.com/books/details/3631#.VZtA9JNViko

    Thank you so much!

    If someone could give a look to Smoke and Mirrors and leave some constructive criticism, I'd be so happy. It's a fantasy story about dragons and smoldering pirates, so if you're into that, you should really give it a try.

    Thanks a lot! Feel free to ask for comments in exhange, too!

  • I'll give five comments and an honest review if someone reads and gives my story, ("Because I love you") some feedback  I'm planning on entering it into the 2016 Wattyawards once they begin, so I genuinely want to do my very best on it. In order to know how to improve myself, I need as much honesty from fellow readers and writers as I can possibly gather. So, if anyone wants their stories read, commented on, and reviewed... feel free to tell me which ones you want.

     

    I read, after all, just as much as I write.

  • I was really hoping if somebody could help in commenting on my current project: Unusable. It's been a struggle to write over the past 9 months due to Writer's Block, but I'm getting there, & any sort of comments would be appreciated. 

    I will, of course, give an equal amount of comments or reviews to the ones I get. 

    Thanks in advance!

  • Hey thanks for getting back to me! I guess, considering this is something I genuinely want to publish, I'd really appreciate if you were as honest as possible. If there's something you find confusing, if you think a certain character wouldn't do such & such, or if you feel the world isn't built up properly, call me out on it. I can review your work as well, an eye for an eye, and all that!
