I'm dropping this in the Writer's Challenge section because A: it involves writing, and B: it involves challenging people to DO said writing, so here goes!

I want reviews of my work. Not necessarily my published books (though you can review those here too, if you like!) but of my writings available here on the site. Be as critical as you want. Talk about how I use the first person too much, or how bad my ability to finish stuff is (even though I AM working on that!) or anything you want! Rank my stories from best to worst, or compile quotable quotes! Just do it all within a review, either of me as an author on the whole, me as a contributor to the community, or an individual story of mine. Use a ten point scale, or a five star scale, or no scale at all, even. Just let us know what you think of my work, good, bad, ugly, all of it.

Do it. I dare ya.

PS: I'll read all the reviews posted here. The review I find most useful to me as an author -- whether it be through constructive criticism or simply pointing out errors -- I will contact the writer of and name a character after them in an upcoming story, if they so wish. Heck, if I find a part of your review intriguing I might very well contact you anyway to get input on how I might improve my stories in the future!
