Thread: Review Exchange

I'd also like to sign up for this as well. My fic's link is in my signature. It's only 6 chapters in so far, and I would be willing to do an in-depth review for every chapter of the other person's fic.

Anyone who's interested can just PM me whenever, really. :) I'd like to start posting more here and getting more involved.

Ok guys, I've been talking this over with the rest of the Writer's Workshop staff, and we are going to be reviving this project in the very near future. Watch this space.

Okay anyway.

Currently:Free to Exchange.


Fic(s): Opelucid's Investments Opelucid's Investments(FFn.net). Opelucid's Investments is a chapter fic, center on mainly Iris from the Pokemon BW games. The story of Drayden & Iris . Drayden, Opelucid City's Mayor and Dragon Gym Leader and Specialist who invest in Iris, a wild girl who knows the hearts of Dragons on a journey to maturity and strength. The future and past of Opelucid. Each chapter's length(so far) is around 2,000-3,500 words. Three chapters at the moment.

Review Style: My reviews vary quite often, they tend to be between one paragraph to several paragraphs and can be quite in-depth, especially if the story interest me a lot. I can be very blunt in my reviews and concise because I expect the same.

Plot, Characters, Characterization, Writing Style, Realism, and interesting characters tend to catch my attention rather quickly, I'm going to be very quick and to the point a lot of the times on how I feel about the characters and plot. Characterization is big for me to, good characterization can really bring my attention toward a fanfic, crap development and characterization repels me. I'll most likely all the time "state" why I dislike a point in the fic, rather then saying I disliked a point and leaving it at that.



Reviews I Want:
What I want. I expect good reviews as well, not short choppy sentences but a genuine review around a paragraph or two. My reviews will most likely most of the time mirror your reviews, a clearly rushed review will usually result in the same for you. A in-depth and interesting review will result in such for you. Not meant to be personal, just a fair trade off XD I also will speculate at times. I do chapter by chapter reviews. I'll make sure my review in clean in most regards. Don't afraid to point out flaws, I'll do the same to you.

Story Type: I'm not interested in romance or crackfics. Complete comedy fics can be a tad tedious too. Please no super duper cliche fics either, Eeveelutions, Lucario, Hilbert/Hilda collecting badges and riding Zekrom to defeat N and save the word or any other copy and paste game plot type stuff.


Timing: I'll usually try to get the review done quickly, but not rushed, and posted in a not drawn out long time span.

Ok guys, sorry the revamped Review Exchange thread has taken a little longer than expected to get up. We've laid out some of the basic plans for it, and I aim to get it fully up and running some time soon after my last exam, which is 23rd May. I know that's a little bit of a long wait (2 weeks), but it's a tough time, what with exams and deadlines and such.

I don't think anyone will resent your being busy. Many of us have exams, myself included, and I'm sure we all sympathise.

I appreciate the understanding, uA. As it happens, though, I'm ahead of schedule with my work, and I handed in an essay today, so I decided to take the day off, and thought I might as well do this.

The new Review Exchange thread can be found here: NEW Review Exchange

People who might be interested: @Gotpika ; @diamondpearl876 ; @alster08 ; @RaiThunder ; Won't bother mentioning uA since I have already quoted him.

Closing this thread as it is no longer necessary.
