Welcome Trix!! We are all crap critics (other than a few local saints) Just try to tell the writer your impressions as honestly and as naturally as you can. Looking forward to your participation. Wonderful site. Jump in! - Paul

I'm a novice poet and crap critic, looking to improve on both counts and this seems like a good place to come for improvement.  Hope you'll bear with me as I'm learning.   Please feel free to blow raspberries when I'm being a dullard or especially silly  Big Grin   I'll wander around a bit, engage in silliness and review some critiques and attempt a few more before I slap up a piece I'd like feedback on ( Beg ).

Hi cjhaffin,

Hello, everyone! As you can see, my username is Serenem, but you can use my real name, which is Melinda, if you wish. I've been writing for a while and have been a moderator and user on a couple of workshop sites which, while great, unfortunately 'bit the dust'. Maybe we should have tried getting muddy like you have!
I was kindly invited by Abu Nuwas on another site when he responded to my wish for more in depth, helpful critique-- better than the 'nice poem' and 'awesome' that was found there.
Well, thanks, all-- I look forward to getting to know you.
Melinda

Hi, Melinda, welcome. The site's a combination of hard work and goofy fun, hope you take part in it all.

Hi yall, I'm Snipesrock, old name used for everything. To be honest I'm a terrible writer who rarely has inspiration. I came here because I wrote something today that I felt so deeply, that I want someone else to read it and know what they think. I'll post that in the proper area.
