 Layagg 2009-01-23 . chapter 2Hi. You've got a new chapter posted so soon. Good for you!
The mother was so perky and funny that it almost looked to me that she was Samara's younger sister.lol I saw lots of funny moments here. School uniform...? At first you were referring to them in a modern era but then I saw prearranged marriage which assured me that this was sometime in the Rennaisance Period or just around those times.
I just feel that this was short. I was surprised when I dragged the scroll bar down, it immediately hit the bottom edge.
As for errors, I saw nothing about the spelling; only some missed words while your typing like "She told me in her very childish voice she whenever she made fun of me. I couldn’t believe her."
"At first I thought she was going to say something serious and here she is goofing around with me."
"She placed the photo back on the table and locked (I think you meant: looked. But it could work if you meant she locked her eyes onto Samara's. hm) right back at me with a firm, serious look."
"My mom has crimson hair and emerald eyes that sparkle in the sunlight. (maybe you could connect these two sentences) While the man in the picture bore tan skin with raven dark hair and brown eyes."
Lastly, good work! You still maintained that tug that kept me reading. You made the characters act alive. So, as always, I'll be waiting for the next update of this chapter.
P.S. So, it's also finals for you there. Good luck on that! ^^ |
 Layagg 2009-01-18 . chapter 1Hmm. This one's got good potential. I like it. Good details, good exhibit of Samara's emotions, interesting portrayal of the character. At first I couldn't see the relationship of the story with SC but at the ending you did show it. I was watching out for errors and some common writer's mistakes in stories but I didn't actually find anything. Well, I remembered spotting some spelling errors but nothing major. In the paragraph right after 'Samara's POV' statement: rouse should be rose. In another paragraph: 'I have not seen an army of killer Lizards nor Revenants being lead by this azure knight'. 'Lead' should be led since it is past tense. I guess that's all I could find.
Moreover, I was watching out if you rant or deviate towards something unrelated in your story but you kept it towards the point. No wordiness, too, which is a common writer's mistake and I had been a victim off until the chapter 3 of my fic. Just the right amount both in details and to get to the point.
All I can comment on this chapter is that the sentences sometimes get choppy. Maybe you could combine them into one sentence with the right length instead of cutting them into pieces (I also had that until someone pointed that to me). You could use semicolon to combine two sentences into one. That's one tool but there are many others out there.
Other than that, I'd be watching out for this fic. Like you, I also love adventure stories. Good luck on this one. Please update!^^, (And thanks for replying to my topic in the forum: characterise me) |
 Whispyr 2009-01-05 . chapter 1This is really good. Since I'm really interested in your OC, I'm really excited to read this story. (She's funny in Survival of the Couples xD) |
