I'm going to work on PokeFighters soon. Today It'll just be random because I didn't think of a schedule and I want to make up for last week. Also, tips about giving a critique (from a wikia):
Giving a Critique
Here are some general guidelines that you might want to take into consideration when offering feedback:
Things that were right about the story. What were the things that worked for you? Point them out and explain why. This is always a good way to start off a critique—on a positive note.
The Overall Story. Did it feel real and believable? Did it flow, one event after another? Was there a mood and did it fit in with the writer's voice?
The Characters. Were they believable? Did their interactions/conversation feel real/read smoothly? Did they capture your attention?
The Setting. Can you picture the surroundings the writer has placed his characters in? If not, where and why did the description lack? Did the writer use the majority of the senses, or only sight?
Grammatical and Mechanical. Any spelling or grammatical mistakes? Is active voice being used the majority of the time? Too many adjectives/adverbs that disrupt the flow of the piece?
Does anything else stand out as wrong? It's usually a good idea to summarize your mentioned points at the end. Lean toward the positive. Encourage the writer in ways that will bolster his desire to work to improve his piece rather than give him reasons to abandon his project entirely.
