The Writing.Com members below are accepting review requests and ready to review your item! Peruse the list, check out members' review styles and request a review from anyone who seems like a good fit for your item.
I attempt a well-rounded review where I look at the item from a writer's and reader's perspective. I'll tell you what I liked and what I think could be strengthened. I like to think I'm a courteous and helpful reviewer.
I will give long, thoughtful, honest, critical, detailed reviews. I do not hesitate to give a bad rating if the item I am reviewing is bad. I will not depreciate the value of 5 stars by giving it to items that don't deserve it.
I will do the best I can to point out everything wrong with your item and then give you suggestions on improving it. Take a look at some of my longer public reviews. If you request a review, you'll get something like that.
I have a review template that is only used for in depth reviews, usually those that are specifically requested. These will be as comprehensive as I can manage, including everything I have noticed in reading the piece. Most of my reviews, however, are more in the nature of reactions to the piece with brief notes on things I find particularly good and suggestions on dealing with any obvious flaws in the writing.
I will write a detailed review of your item that goes into detail about the positives and negatives of your item. I color code each section so everything is easy to see once you view your review.
I always add both positive and constructive comments to all of my reviews. I'm fast and thorough, and I fulfill any and all specifications in the review request. I'm willing to review ANYTHING without a bias, or judgements on the nature of a piece of work.
Please send me an email to my offsite email as well as sending a request because I forget to check here as often. I will get to your request if you send me an offsite email at jayfeather1998@gmail.com. If you contact me with a reminder that you sent me a request I'll get right on it!!!
I use a three colored ribbon system, green, blue, and red, to measure my feelings on the strength of that area of the review.
The color of the ribbon to the left of the category denotes how I feel the work measured up to the catigory.
A Green Ribbon
Means I feel the work passed and met this criteria.
A Blue Ribbon Means I feel this is somehow incomplete, or weak and will explain as best I can and offer any suggestions I can think of.
A Red Ribbon Means I think the work is missing this.
A Face Palm Ether standing alone or alongside a ribbon Will mean I don't know, or I'm not sure.
This Style I apply to both short stories and poetry.
I'm just learning so please understand I need to have limits, which are
word count for short stories is 1,500
Poetry line count is no more that forty lines please.
At least for now until I get better at this.
I tend to be constructive, though I've been known to be a bit too nice...at least, in my opinion. note that while I'll review anything requested, they can be a bit sloppy if I don't take interest.
I will say what I liked about your piece and if I have any suggestions for improvement. My reviews are usually short, sweet and to the point. I prefer to review short stories but will look at poetry if asked to.
I tend to focus on the technical aspects of a piece of writing, looking at the language, flow, style and punctuation.
I tend not to spend too much time on complimenting what works well.
I don't like to pick things apart. One of the reasons for this is that my perspective may not match the intelligence level of the author, so I like to keep it simple.
While I will give input on any spelling, grammar, and punctuation, I much prefer to rate based on how the content flows and feels to me as a reader. Even if there is room for improvement, I always prefer to stay on the positive side of things. To be honest, every writer has room for improvement. We're all works in progress.
I like to put a bit of light humor into my reviews. I don't really go for the whole format style, just a good old paragraph/letter format. I tend not to focus much on grammar, unless I am specifically asked or it is bad enough to take away from the story. I read it more as a reader then a writer, though I will put some of that aspect into it as well. If you like a casual approach with that personal touch to connect you to the reviewer then I'm your man.
My reviewing style varies. I may do a little edit if possible or pinpoint what I think is incorrect. My review is merely base on what I feel about your piece. If I enjoy it, I say it. If not, I tell you why I'm not.
I often do reviews on all Poetry Items- regardless of the genres, styles and the way it was written. However if you like, you can request a short story, chapter not the entire book or novel, articles and essays, etc.
I definitely understand miss spellings, so I'll focus more on the story than the errors. For me the story needs to have nice structure, believable characters, and a great idea! When I’m asked to do a review I’ll create an in-depth review, catorizing my review into different parts to make easier to understand, unlike when I do a read and review were I only leave one paragraph.
Unsentimental. I focus on the kinds of craft issues that will keep a writer from being taken seriously and prevent them from fully expressing their vision.

I look at the title, premise, overall structure first. Then I see how it makes me feel. After that, I might comment on little errors which are easily fixed.
My review style will change to conform to the needs of the work. If I find no grammatical issues, I move onto something else, and I will always key on requested aspects of the piece per the author's instructions.
