🍵 Merlin's story review and proofreading for all stories [CLOSED]

Hello! Just wondering, do you offer reviews to unpublished stories? I’ve been looking to get a review for a while now and no news :sob::sweat_smile:

Yes, this is called proofreading or beta reading :slight_smile: I’m happy to offer you my help. You can DM me if you don’t wanna show any details of your story here in the thread.

Thank you so much!!!:smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Thank you so much!!! Do you remember any spots where there was awkward entering or leaving the scene? Or sliding in?

Hey! I have a question: I’m currently trying to revamp my story, so is it alright if you review it for me but don’t post it on your instagram (if it’s that good that you want to, which I doubt.)

Omg thank you so much for this review! I will definitely make the changes!!! Very nice suggestions!!! And sorryy my ig is @__queen_episode

Yes :blush:

Not really but as I read only the first chapter, it was all there. Oh i remember one scene - when the mc was saved by the guy but as there was mainly only his legs, they were sliding around, no walking animation.

This is why it is important to actually read the thread and add all the required information so the review can be sucessful. Unfortunutely I no longer have the screenshots of the story I would’ve post since I did the review days ago. :worried:

Great! here are the details - please be brutally honest! It really helps (take your time! :heartbeat:):

  • Story title -The Flame Between Us
  • Genre - Drama
  • Story description - After being sent to Military School for 3 long years, Ellen begins her senior year at her old school, Maxwell High. What could go wrong when her past comes back to bite her?

On the positive side

On the down side

Summary
  • bg text out of the frame -> i’m a tablet user
  • black backgrounds all over -> it’s better to have your signature backgrounds or what ever else intead of the black.

  • cc of the li -> don’t start the story saying - this is your li, contumize him -> move the cc of the li to the actual point where the mc meets him -> makes things more natural and starts the fantasy -> you don’t know how your love looks like before meeting them :wink:
  • i noticed you’re having one and the same bg music through the chapter -> bg music is for giving the right vibes -> different situations have different vibe -> match your music to the scenes
  • texting background -> all black again witch is actually not bad but Joseph Evans has a nice phone bg for free at episodelife.com
  • weak cliffhanger -> not enough to continue reading
  • nothing significant happens at all plus the music makes it have all same vibe from the beginning

Overall the story is just boring and i couldn’t get the point of it at all!
The first chapter is the most important one, you have to maximum impress people with it.

  • story description has some important typos. It should be like this-

You are/You’re a rich and famous athlete with a horrible past. He is/Hi’s your new manager. What are you willing to do…

No choices though but I guess that’s alright considering all the rest.
