Like wow I loveed the dialogue in the middle but there was one part towards the end that didn't seem very believeable to me...then point it out. If criticism is said nicely no one minds I don't think, but yeah...eh that sucked monkey butts is not a good way to get across how you feel lol

LMAO Um, ok, I'm at work and I totally just laughed really loud and people are looking at me. ;D Thanks for all the tips on reviewing. I think part of my problem is that I'm still somewhat new to this writing and reviewing thing. I've decided to go back and read some stories over and leave some feedback since I already have a sense of what I liked and didn't like. Maybe that will make it easier. Thanks again!

Amen to the "anything is better than nothing." I get nothing and always feel like I'm pretty sub-par...

I just found this thread and I thought your idea is great Julie! I’m not sure how I can contribute because I don’t think I’d qualify to really give anything constructive as a reader (have you seen my grammar? lol) and I don’t know how the rubric thing works, but if this is already in motion, let me know, I’ll support it in any way I can. I’m assuming this will be on your board? (I have to see if I’m already a member or not, I keep registering at different places and then totally forgot about them, lol).

Thanks, Mers! If we don't hear from Chaos, it's going to be hosted on my domain, but you won't need to be part of the forum or anything.
Those of us who are interested in developing the rubric can get that put together and post it here, and then anyone who is interested in being a reviewer can say so. Mare and I were talking, and I think we're gonna do what I suggested about having everyone who wants to review do a trial one on the same willing guinea pig story - we already thought of a good story, something everyone could like - and see how it goes.
honey:
now ya got me all curious, what story are you gonna do???
