Interesting choice! These fit to the theme of native names on the states of United States. I know some people love word searches too. I am one of them but don't get around to play them often. They are entertaining and fun. No spelling or grammar errors found. Great job and keep up the good work!

Yes some of the translations makes the name a funny name to have for a town. Great work and great choices! I'm not a German speaker so trusting your translation. I thought of a great sentence to use using some of the names. Pretty hilarious. No spelling or grammar errors detected. Good job and keep up the great work!

Great details! Kieran started out in a dangerous situation and, after falling off the cliff, got saved by the dragon and then went to help her comrades after the dragon defeated those Vawwn. Then her comrades were fighting and the dragon finished off the battle. They went over and discovered children in the wagon scared to death. Voice is natural and smooth. The narrator showed these events with action. Characters are realistic and believable. Doing something even when they were suppose to wait for the dragon for example. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the great work!

Clever use of the prompt! Great details! Some says they are fine but deep inside hiding the pain of their difficulties. Then it goes reversed to say difficulties cause the pain to hide deep smiles and yet some say they are fine. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters are believable and realistic. Showing that smile isn't real. Or real smiles are hidden. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great dialogue! And details! At first we don't know who is speaking or why but then we find out who and why. Good way to start it. Alicia received a homemade cake from her mom and Harold acts as a third party arguing on mom's side. Then mom's husband came in in the end. Voice is smooth and natural. Prompt is followed perfectly. Characters is believable and realistic. No spelling and grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work! It's a great way to describe a birthday surprise to a daughter.

This is totally cool and something I share feelings of too. Can't wait for the cold to end! Spring to come. Accurate description of February. I love that. The prompt is followed. Voice is natural and smooth. Characteristics of February is realistic and believable. No spelling or grammar errors found. Spirits could involve animals too. I think the form is followed as well. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Marge and Kevin are together and Kevin wanted to buy the land in the swamp. Marge kept getting nightmares and Kevin kept ignoring the warnings. The land was a burial ground for the Native Americans. Then suddenly the sinking happened and Marge was rescued, but not Kevin. Interesting fate. Voice is natural and smooth. The horror part is there I believe. (Not as familiar with horror genre but read a few.) The prompt is followed. The characters are realistic and believable. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Maggie fights to resist her husband's plea to come to him and fights until she gives up at the very end. This is a sad story yet a powerful one too. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters are realistic and believable. There may have been a prompt to follow I didn't check it out, but I think fits the nature of the contest. Dark and Romance combined. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Josh is a kindhearted dragon slayer who is reluctant to slay a dragon (following the prompt) and has a friend Charlie to plan a spaghetti prank. This story made me smile and I was glad it had a happy ending where the dragon was no longer wanted to be killed in the end. The voice is natural and smooth. Characters is realistic and believable. Good job and keep up the good work!

Josh would prefer befriending the dragon and reading it books, Suggestion: its books

Great details! Henry the cat waited for his humans to go to sleep before doing the next best thing he could think of to do. Find some chips and let the hippo eat the chips. Then get a drink of water and let the hippo get a drink of water. He knew it was unwise to drink after the hippo got into it. Then in the last his humans brought a puppy and the hippo disappeared. Voice is natural and smooth. The prompt is followed uniquely. The hippo is a mouse and the name the cat used for the mouse. Characters is believable and realistic.

Great details! It's about a snail who was fluent in dice but had no one to write to kept accruing taxes year after year until they got a letter in the mail. How funny! It is short and to the point. Each word counted. The shape is a clever one. I'm not sure I can guess what it is except it looks like a pen quill. The form is used correctly and the prompt is followed. Voice is natural and smooth. Characters is realistic and believable. No grammar or spelling errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Shape has a name but that name just isn't hitting me. It seems I should know what it is. Fun to try and guess.

Review of It Didn't Snow  Open in new Window.

Rated: 13+ | N/A (Review only item.)
Great details! The focus was on how it didn't snow as these things passed by and a loved one passed on and it finally snowed. The question of balance lingers in the air. Voice is natural and smooth. No prompt for this contest I don't believe so anything works as long as it's free verse. Good job there. Characters are realistic and believable- the speaker and their loved one. No spelling or grammar errors found. The poem reads smoothly and I have no suggestions for improvements. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! This poem is all about thanks in honor of service being provided. It starts out with a gift in remembrance of something with a card being sent and then the fourth line of the stanza. It ties in well with the prompt. Family focus seems to be a theme that could describe it. The poem is general for the most part. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! It starts out describing the bank and then move to what the elves calls her and then about the elves. Ends talking about Emily in the world you will see her in.

I love Emily and the elves too. Great hook, pondering over who or where to start out first with. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Just voted and I see Dragon-verse is popular pick. Fantasy rules! Great choices and I hope you get many more votes in as well. This poll is simple and easy to follow. There are many options to choose from and all you need is your imagination to imagine what each universe would be like. I'd say perfect for your average voter. Sci-fi and Fantasy fans would love this poll especially. Anyone is welcome to vote.

Great details! There is terror happening all around in the world, yet for a moment, the speaker feels joy in the arms of his or her love one. This is that precious moment. Voice is natural and smooth. The speaker speaks their fears of the world and then a moment of joy. Characters are realistic and believable. I noticed a rhyming pattern to this poem which blended in with the reading. The prompt is followed perfectly. The moment of joy is captured in the end with it being the focus.

Great details! Casper the ghost is worried about the little things that makes up for him being a ghost while David brushes it aside. There is a lot that could be said simply for one single disease. Voice is natural and smooth matching the person who is speaking. It's easy to tell when it's David or when it's Casper. Characters are realistic and believable. Casper is humorous in a sense that there's no end to his worries about having a serious illness. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! The dog's birthday party is pretty interesting. And yet the main character still needed to go to work. Upsetting the party. Both the dog and her romantic partner seemed upset about it. Yet she still needed to go to work. Italian for the birthday party is a delicious concept. I would have to try veggie style. The dog is smart. Voice is natural and flows smoothly. Characters is realistic and believable. It is true to the prompt. Looks a little fixing and it would be perfect. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! The main character has a lot going on, living in the void with their family until one fateful day that separated them apart. Anti appears and warns the main character about the ink monster and the main character blasts fire in defense at the cost of weakness of rain. Then he and Anti left for queen of Monstrosia. I'd say chapter 2 would be either them heading to Monstrosia or meeting the queen. Good voice. Voice is natural and flows smoothly. Characters are realistic and believable. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! Looks like the main character isn't going to get a pay raise after all. Instead, getting fired. A sad ending for him. Hopefully he gets a better job soon. Or risk going onto the streets due to lack of money. His wife wouldn't be supportive judging from her attitude. Voice is natural and flows smoothly. Characters are believable and realistic. The prompt is followed perfectly. No spelling or grammar errors found. This man has a long journey ahead of him to finding the perfect job. Good job and keep up the good work!

This is a nice, funny dialogue between the virus and the speaker. The speaker doesn't want anyone to notice that they've been infected by the virus and yet the virus brings up his brother's wedding. So the speaker asked what could be the bribe for it to stop talking and it replied drinking. Then the speaker preferred to do the drinking in response. Great details! Voice is natural and flows smoothly. Characters are believable and realistic. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! An African American lady who struggles with her parents to find the perfect bride, going against a very prejudice family to get her own way. She fell in love with an interracial white/Arab man and chose to marry him despite how her parents were against it. Good voice. Voice was consistent and true to itself. Character was believable and realistic. I couldn't find any spelling or grammar errors when I went and scanned for one, I thought I saw time written as tine somewhere. It could be correct too. Good job and keep up the good work!

Great details! This dragon king searched for a young woman in his kingdom to be the one for years after he lost his dragon fire and got trapped in his dragon form. They disappointed him. Finally, a group of men went out of the border and kidnapped a woman to bring to him out of desperation. She didn't react the same as the others. Instead, she cared for him. Because of this, his fire returned and she became a dragon too. They went into their human forms and spring arrived. Eternal winter ended. Voice is consistent and natural. The perspective focused on the important details. The prompt is followed. Romance is involved. Characters are believable and realistic. No spelling or grammar errors found. Good job and keep up the good work!

It's good forward or backward. Meant to be read forward makes sense. I love the details. It explains how some people live their lives looking backward in the past through a rear-view mirror and that's not how life is meant to be lived. Life is meant to be lived in the present. The activity goes by a line count of 8 and you are close. The prompt is followed nicely. No spelling or grammar errors found. Palindrome poem forms I'm not familiar with too much but I think you did a great job on it. Good job and keep up the good work!
