Reviews For: A Game of Tennis
pointythings 2005-10-20 . chapter 1
This is almost too detailed, or rather, it's detailed the wrong way. It sounds more like a list of instructions than a love poem to tennis. You need to include images, not descriptions of exactly what you're doing. Select your images carefully. Also, at several points in this poem, you type 'you' instead of 'your'. Please, please, please proofread your work! Spelling errors are a sign of sloppy writing. (If I have inadvertently made a spelling error in this review, feel free to laugh scornfully, but do as I say, not as I do.) I like your use of the word 'love'; it adds an emotional element that is missing in the rest of the poem. Do a little more of that kind of thing, only be sure to show not tell.

Yours in writing,~pointythings~

This is an exceptional example of an extended metaphor. Me gusta mucha! (I like it a lot!)

Wow, that was incredible. I mean, you wrote about it like you were a combat correspondent (war journalist). Excellent. Well done.

Tennis is really fun. I'm not good at it, though. (Basketball is more of my thing.) Another job well done.
