Comment/Review: Think you maybe ready to complete this now? I, for one, know you can. Your writing abilities/skills have steadily improved/matured over the last few years (I should know, I've been, 'stalking', um watching your work, all that time). You've become an awesome writer. This was a good start to what could be an even greater finish. Please consider finishing it. right_read_time (aff.net)

I must have been thinking of something else... o_O Probably because I reviewed a day after I finished reading the thing. Funny how time flies, isn't it? Well, remember my offer, and feel free to contact me. Later! ~Kay Webb (again)

You capture emotion very nicely, and the flow of your language is smooth, while many other writers I have seen have a stop-start-stop-start chunky blocky style. (See what I mean?) However. Yes, there's always the "but," isn't there? Well, there are a few things here that really bug me, but can be easily fixed. 1) Writing in the present tense In most novel formats, writing in the present tense is practically taboo. Other than the obvious (speech, thoughts, etc.), most fiction writing -- and even most non-fiction as well -- is written in some form of the past tense. An exception is the growing use of "script" style in online writing, which uses the present tense for labelling actions. For example, let's look at two versions of a small scene, with a random person we'll call "Mary." "That's good." Mary smiled. He's cute, she thought. Mary: That's good. *smiles* *thinks* He's cute. See? Using the present tense often sounds like you're writing a screenplay, which is obviously not the case! 2) Using many, many paragraphs While some writers have apparantly never HEARD of this "paragraph" that I speak of, and write entirely in a solid block of text, you seem to have every other sentence in a new paragraph. Easy on the eyes, true, but a little TOO easy. It's a bit like... No! *half a page down* It couldn't be! *another half-page down* It was... *scroll down some more* HIM! *scroll down yet more so* (The end.) It's really rather annoying. Of course, it may just be your formatting, but please keep this in mind. It makes your chapters look much longer than they really are, but although that can lure new readers, I read the entire 8 chapters that you've written so far in under 15 minutes. You might also want to consider squishing a few chapters together (Every time you write a cliffhanger doesn't mean that you have to end the chapter there! Keeping readers in suspense, even in the middle of a chapter, is a very good thing!). There are also a few typos, mostly inappropriate spaces (Hell o, the re!). These can be solved by quickly running through the entire document/chapter before posting and keeping a sharp eye out! (If you listened to all of this rabble, you deserve a cookie.) Once again, you are a very talented author with a taste for language. If you ever decide you need a "beta" (beta reader), feel free to just give me an e-mail at endlessabyss246@aol.com. Best wishes! ~Kay Webb

I feel sorry for yugi just thinking about it. | Reviewed By: Vegakitty On: July 24, 2003 19:11 CDT Comment/Review: Vega: Ok, I'll bite. A little bad and angsty. None of that really bad stuff, you know the kind.
Wufei: Rape, beatings, death, etc.
Vega: *glares at Wufei* Yeah... that kinda stuff. But other than that I think it needs a little conflict. Yami getting all jealous is cute but it won't be that way for long. Maybe Yugi needs to develop a backbone and leave Yami and make him see all the mistake he's made and beg for him back and--
Wufei: For gods sake, onna, this isn't your story!
Vega: Oops... sorry got carried away. I'll be going now ^_^; | Reviewed By: Maryna On: July 24, 2003 17:56 CDT Rating(s):Style of Writing: 10 of 10 Originality/Creativity: 10 of 10 Enjoyment Factor: 10 of 10

Continue please this story is cool | Reviewed By: Vegakitty On: May 04, 2003 16:11 CDT Comment/Review: Vega: Heh... me again. Please forgive the upcoming outburst.
Wufei: *covers his ears*
Vega: YUGI + DARK-BABY SITTING = CUTENESS!
Wufei: *winces then uncovers his ears* She likes this fic.
Vega: Ooh, ooh! I got suggestion for a pairing for another fic! Bakura and Yugi! I know, I know... waaaaaaay out there. But I read this fic that hasn't been updated in a while called "Cold and Lonely" and I love it! And I mean Bakura, not Ryou. Just read the fic and see what you think.
Wufei: Giving free advertisement to Lady Darkmoon, are you?
Vega: She deserves it! Anyway, keep those chapters rolling in! | Pages (2): [ 1 2 ›  » ] |
