Author has written 44 stories for Love, Nature, War, Spiritual, Mystery, Life, Supernatural, General, Religion, General, Politics, and Family. Hello fellow writers. I am just a boy trying to get some truthful critique of my work. I know I like it. The question is, how can it be improved? I have a love for poetry, but I test the waters of stories as well. My favorites are any of the "Thunder on Pavement" series, along with "I Killed Tonight", "Lightning Over the Bay", and "Civility". Thank you in advance for any reviews you wish to give me, and I will certainly return the favor. -Hartman | |||||||
