The return of the Critic · 3:47am Aug 19th, 2013
Most of my few followers (still can't believe that I have any at all...) follow me because of comments or reviews I have made. So I figure this is the best place for this public announcement:
I am re-opening my thread in the P, PR, &E Group and taking new stories to pre-read, review, and generally tear to pieces.
If you have, or know of, a story that needs a good beating let me know and I will do my best to assist!
Is this still open? There's this story called 'My Life As A Bipedal Quadruped' that I want to see a review of
Seriously though, I had a blog post about cover art for it, and ssokolow brought up some things about it that I hadn't considered. This made it clear that I still might not have a very good grasp of what people think about the story, and I feel like I should if I want it to go in interesting directions, rather than the 'wrong' direction.
So, could you pretend that some unaffiliated stranger came along and asked you to review it? And he didn't hint in any way whether he wanted you to praise it or give it a good spanking? And that the author has no idea that you're reviewing it?
Sorry, but author knowledge or not, I always give honest reviews.
Sure, I'll put one together. It will take me a bit. I'm away from my computer right now, and a full review it time consuming anyway. But I'll let you know when it's done.
