I was wondering if you could concrit my only fic, Confessions of the Damned. I don't care about the reviews, so much as the feedback of what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. That's only if you feel up to it. If you do, thank you.

Alright, Memo. I'll hit your fic.

Hello, hello. I'm back. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking a look at maybe the first two chapters of this: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4025998/1/Songs_For_a_Kingdom_Now_Lost pour moi? ^^

Hi, I was wondering if you could take a look at following story: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4050625/1/Dum_Fortuna_Fuit It's the Resident Evil universe, if you're familiar with that. If not, drop me a quick PM and I'll send you a short summary! Thanks in advance!

Hello again. Could you review my seventh chapter for The New Member? http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4144454/7/The_New_Detective

Also, if it isn't too much trouble could you also review my Beyond Birthday fic. (It's very short. It's based off of a lullaby.) http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4340258/1/Beyond_Birthdays_Lullaby

Hi Nova,

Would you be willing to review my story 'A Different Journey'? It's in the Labyrinth fandom, but if you're not familiar with it, I can give you a summary of the film if you like. As my story is based around a dreaded OC, I'm curious to hear what your opinion is.

Thanks in advance - Here's the link if you're interested: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4163558/1/A_Different_Journey

Hi. -waves-

I love the idea of this forum, and I was wondering if you could concrit my most recent story, Shadow of Contrition.

It's Fullmetal Alchemist, based on the anime. I'm not worried about my spelling and grammar so much as plot, OOCness, etc.

No worries if you can't get to it, and no rush if you can.

It's a series of short-ass oneshots -- well, I suppose two doesn't really count as a "series", but I'll get there (: -- and your concrit would be just wonderful.

Many, many thanks in advance.

Hi! I heard about you, and have seen some of your concrit. I consider myself a good author, and am confident in my writing abilities. However, I also know that one is not a true master of their craft if they think they are a master and no longer need to learn anything :) I also use a couple of beta's for my writing (I didn't at first) and find it valuable, especially when I compare writing from three points in my life - highschool, my fresh/soph year at college, and now (a year after being done) and notice that what I write now is definitely more polished than the crap I wrote in highschool. Granted, I was never a Suethor (thank goodness!) but I had room for improvement back then and still do now.

Forgive the rambling. As you probably figured, I came here for some of your concrit because of your reputation. I have a lot of stories in my profile, but I ask concrit for just one, maybe 2, of my works. What I really want is concrit for Capture of the Maiden, and if you have the time, Slow Heat or Kiss of Fire (these two stories are prequel/sequel) or one of my oneshot stories. I don't seek crit for my Cold Fire arc as I consider the trilogy done and part of my learning process for writing. If you have the time, thank you so much!

I'll hit your fic, Spleefmistress. I can't guarantee /both/ fics; don't feel bad, I give everyone this rap. I /can/ guarantee that one fic.

//Chapter one reviewed, Spleefmistress. I'll hit one or two more.

Chapter two reviewed. Think I got room for another review before I drag my ass to work. :)

Thank you SO much for the concrit! Your advice was spot-on. I know I tend to repeat myself a bit here and there and sometimes get a bit wordy. With several projects going on, its hard to remember just what I already wrote. It's a issue I try to deal with.

I wrote my Cold Fire trilogy 3 years ago. I call that v1. Last year, I went through the entire trilogy for a good edit. I cut out a lot of unnecessary stuff, polished details and what not for a smoother read. Did the same with a couple of my old one-shots as well. All of these edited works I call 'Final Version/Edition'.

I plan to do the same for ALL of my work eventually, and all of the WONDERFUL advice you have given me will go into the editing process for Capture of the Maiden as well as all the other works that I have not yet edited. I plan to do the 'Final Version' of Capture of the Maiden sometime next year, after I have finished the story. Same with all my other v1 works.

Again, thank you so much! I appreciate your help :)

PS - Out of curiosity, what do you do for a job, if I'm not being too nosy?

Spleefmistress, you're welcome. :) And not that anyone cares, but I work in an office. Nothing special. :P

Please review my stories! I have read some of your concrit (I like to read reviews on stories that I read) and I think that it would be very helpful to have some on mine! I like long, helpful reviews like the ones that you give, so please help me out! The reason I am on this site is to improve my writing in a setting that I can enjoy, but that won't work if all I get are suck ups and flamers.

They are both Naruto, so if you need help with that, message me! (Sorry, I don't know if you have seen/read it or not.)
