    I have a short story that I have self-published on Amazon and I was wondering if anyone on this forum would be willing to write a constructive/honest review for me?
    I will happily gift you a copy of the story in exchange for the effort. You will obviously need an Amazon.com account to be able to do this.

    pm me your email if you are interested.

    Hey Gryphonboy, I liked your story. It's very well written, and you draw your characters really well. My only criticism is that the ending was very sudden, and though it was hinted at through the story, I wasn't actually certain what had happened until I read your bit at the end.

    Thank you Antilles. That seems to be a common thread among all readers so far :-)

    I loved it, amazing first attempt. It really reminded me of Good Omens.
    I really liked the end as it was to be honest.

    Great work:D

    Thank you. I really appreciate the feedback.

    It's a debate I struggled with before publishing. Was the ending too vague to make sense or would I risk oversimplification of the message.

    I'm glad you mention Good Omens. It definitely inspired me. Both pratchett and gaiman are massive heroes of mine.

    Has anyone had a chance to write an actual review yet?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,731 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    I did. Remember to link to the actual book on Amazon when you PM people!

    Ok thanks. I have been sharing the link.
    I definitely can't see your review though. It's only showing me the 3 that were already there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91 ✭✭Gryphonboy


    Oh wait I think I've figured it out. There's a .co.uk one and a .com one.
    That's really confusing.

    PM it to me, I'll write you a review.
