Review of Blood Money  Open in new Window.
Review by John Author IconMail Icon
Rated: 18+ | (4.5)
This story really pulls you in with its suspense and keeps you on edge. Tom’s a great character. He’s flawed but relatable, and the mix of fear and excitement he feels after the incident is totally believable. The twist at the end with the cab driver is fantastic and leaves you wondering how Tom’s luck is going to run out. That said, the shift in Tom’s mood from panic to calm at the pub feels a little abrupt. It might help to dive a bit more into his thoughts and why he suddenly feels confident enough to keep the money. Some more details about the setting would add to the atmosphere too. Just small things like the sounds of the city or the vibe of the pub could make a difference. The criminals’ dialogue is a bit stereotypical, so giving them some more personality could make that scene pop a bit more. Also, while Tom’s decision to keep the money makes sense, it could be explored a bit deeper to give his actions more weight. Lastly, the final scene with the cabbie is a great moment, but slowing it down a little could build more tension before Tom realizes what’s happening. Overall, it’s a really solid story with a lot of potential. A few tweaks here and there and it’ll be even stronger.

Review of Game Models  Open in new Window.
Review by John Author IconMail Icon
Rated: E | (5.0)
This story blends creativity and real-world impact in a really engaging way. The idea of gamifying everyday life through augmented reality feels fresh and relatable. Samir’s journey from a college project to creating Game Models is exciting, and the way it motivates him (and others) to level up in life is both fun and thought-provoking. The community-driven aspect adds depth, but the subtle warning about tech taking over makes you think twice. It’s a smart, entertaining take on the future of tech and personal growth.

The story really nails Lena’s sense of isolation and the tension in her family, making her emotional struggles feel raw and real. The dialogue feels authentic, especially between Lena and her parents. But, the pacing could be quicker, and the relationship with her brother could use more depth. Her Beatles obsession is a cool touch, though it could tie in better with her journey. It’s got a lot of potential—just needs a bit more polish to make the connections stronger and the flow tighter.

This story masterfully blends temptation, faith, and personal struggle. The protagonist's encounter with Lucifer in a crowded pub is a compelling exploration of doubt, self-worth, and resistance to manipulation. Lucifer’s charm and philosophical persuasion challenge the protagonist’s beliefs, creating an internal battle that feels authentic and emotionally charged. The dialogue is at times heavy, but the overall pacing, atmosphere, and character development is good. A thought-provoking narrative about faith, choice, and the human condition.the speed of the story is a bit slow

This story really captures the rollercoaster of finally getting the dog you’ve always dreamed of. Harry’s journey is both funny and relatable, and you feel his excitement—and the chaos that comes with it. His relationship with Fiona is realistic, though we don’t get much of her perspective, which leaves the conflict a bit one-sided. Muttly’s a great character, but I wish we got more of his backstory to really feel the bond between him and Harry. The pacing feels a little rushed in places, especially when jumping through Harry’s life stages. The ending is sweet and a bit bittersweet, but I think it could’ve dug deeper into how Harry feels about his new life with Muttly. Still, it’s a fun, heartwarming story with a lot of charm.

The story effectively conveys a deep emotional connection to nature, emphasizing the vital role of water in a community that relies on it for survival. The imagery is vivid, making the reader feel the rain's refreshing impact, and the philosophical touch of the Leonardo da Vinci quote adds depth. However, the piece lacks tension or conflict; it focuses more on relief than addressing the ongoing challenges of living with water scarcity. The tone occasionally veers into idealism, missing an opportunity to capture the raw, uncertain reality of depending on such a precarious resource. A bit more urgency or complexity in the narrative would make it even more compelling.
