Should we say till 11:59PM EST, 14th February. That's just over a week. For reviews? Doesn't that seem a bit too long? Does it, Dragon? Does it? |

I enjoy reviewing. |

Who wrote this intro again? Allya? Did you have an intention for the phrase "astral viewer?" That's a really intriguing line.

My reviews are in, btw, so that's one more, at least.

See, I don't. I enjoy helping people. I enjoy seeing a writer grow and improve. Once I've finished a review, I enjoy being helpful and showing a writer that 'yes, someone is reading this.' But I don't enjoy the actual -act- of reviewing. I don't like sitting down to read a piece with the express point to review it. I like to just read. When I'm reviewing, I'm definitely going a little more "academic" (for a lack of a better word) than I usually read fiction with. |

Well, I either read or I review. If I read, I ignore mistakes and just enjoy it. It's what I do with my first read through of anything.
My reviews are just thoughts on the piece as I read through a second time.
I guess I like to review because I hope someone will return the favor. But then, I'm volunteering as a reviewer on EqD to field fan fiction, so I don't know. Maybe I just like helping people improve, too.
Can't really explain why I enjoy it, I guess. It just happens to be fun.

I read and enjoy and generally comment on feelings. It's why my reviews tend to be: you didn't give me enough scenery and not you filled the plot full of gramma holes!

Who wrote Penrhyn Two? That's the one that Kaez and Agro kept thinking was me, back in round one.
