If I read/review your fiction, please keep in mind that I will be honest.

I think writing is a wonderful way to express yourself however if you honestly want feedback. I will probably assume that you want to know your strengths and weaknesses... so I'll probably tell you. (I know I wish the same from folks who have reviewed my stories whether or not they are up at the moment is another subject) If your story leaves me without much to say other than a feeling of "curious to see where this is going to go" I'll say that as well.

I will never say anything just to be mean. I'm not the type of person who just picks to pick. (However if I hate what you wrote... I am not going to hold back.)

One of the most important things an author needs to do is capture the audience and hold the interest of the audience. This doesn't mean that the author needs to put in ridiculous cliff hangers but instead completely immerse the reader in the story that is being told. If you can do that, you've got talent.

I think this is a great website to practice the basics of storytelling.

There have been many people who have published with a real publishing company before they have graduated highschool so age is not a factor when it comes to the ability of being able to tell a wonderful story.

If I have reviewed your story with a sweet and sour review and you don't care, don't like it, and honestly have no ambition to tell a better story - ignore me. If I've given my interest and not much more, then rock on. If I've given you my praise, well you're doing something right.

I like authors who try.
