 Aetre 2003-05-29 . chapter 1what this sketch needs is a li'l good ol' editing.
you write with a lot of adverbs and adverb clauses, which is great for active writing. you might want to keep it in check, though, because adverbs tend to jump from subject to subject, and the main topic gets lost in the fray. in other words, you go into so much detail about what has happened or may happen to the character, the reader forgets the first line by the end, and won't have much of a perspective for the character's present situation.
the key to adverbs is to keep them from running away on ya. it gets easier with practice, don't worry ;) |
 MoonLitDemon 2003-05-29 . chapter 1Hm. It's good, intriguing, but not the *best* of your work. That I've read anyway. No offense meant, though. This just had grammar and spelling errors in it, and your other ones (that I've read) did not have any noticable mistakes, to me anyway.
By the way, I make tons of grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes, and typos in my stories, so I shouldn't be one to talk.

 The Jamjar Fairy 2003-05-29 . chapter 1Interesting. Nice use of mythology too (is liking mythology :D). Metaphors make my head spin, so I'm not so great a spotting them, but there were probably some in there and I cangratulate them on their usage. nice work. |
 Falen 2003-05-25 . chapter 1Very nice. Yes morbid but who am I to talk. ^.^; I like the way you made Loki a woman (he is usually portrayed as a man) and how you brought all the themes together. Oh and thanx for tellnig me abotu the contest!
Well I am off. Cya around. *who knows when I'll show up to club heh*
