I hope the name of this blog is self-explanatory enough for you!!
But this is part of my little goal to get more reviews happening in the Workshop -- my hope is that by reviewing one story per day, I'll be able to encourage others to also review stories, too... maybe we could start a review chain or something ehehe. I also just want to interact with what we have here as well, because there's a lot of great writing around!
The rules are simple, but basically:
Every night, I'll write a review for a fic of my choosing, and post it in the fic's thread. Then, I'll put down a synopsis of the fic (or chapter, if it's a long chapter fic) I chose to review and my brief thoughts on it, and leave a link to my full review of the fic itself in this thread! I'll try my bestest to do one every night, but I'll probably forget or be busy sometimes -- please forgive me in advance when it happens!
You're welcome to request your fic to be reviewed, but I do have some ground rules for that, please!!
✧Pokémon fics only, please! I don't want to read or review fics I won't be able to appreciate as much as I could in the event it's for something I don't know about.
✦Please don't spam asking for a review if I've already reviewed one of your works within the past week or so.
✧Please be aware I may close my review submissions if I have some fics that I'm already wanting to take a look at.
✦Please(!!!) specify if you want constructive criticism or not!!! If you don't specify, I will default to constructive criticism.
✧Please don't ask me to review any Mature-rated fics. I'm very delicate and most of the time don't want to interact with any of the content warnable in them -- special exceptions may be made for works with violence in them, but that'll something I would like to decide for myself. If you know me well, you're welcome to message me about any exceptions, but that'll only be if I'm following you here, please and thank you.
✦Please note that death is a trigger for me -- if your work contains themes of it, you're welcome to ask if I can review it still, but please please please let me know so I'll be forewarned for it. If you don't do that, I may ask you to not post in this thread anymore.
✧Please note that I reserve the right to not honor any requests for whatever reason -- if you're unsure as to why I ignore a request, you're welcome to PM me, and I'll try to explain. I'm fine with reading works that aren't 'my taste', but... this is my blog, you know? Thanks for understanding in advance...
✦As for my preferences, I'm okay with anything up to Teen-rated fics, but prefer to avoid super dark themes whenever possible, though don't let that stop you from giving me something sadder! Happy and fluffier fics are my favorite, and I'm more than happy to read ship stuff -- extra points if it's platonic pairings ehehe... I like character-driven stories a lot, especially slowburn relationships, and don't enjoy battle-centric works or journeyfics as much in comparison.
I thiiiiink that's everything...?
My backlog will be listed... here!
✧Luceat Lux Vestra, by @silurica (18 chapters, 批判しないリマインダー)
✦Hydro's drabbles, by @Hydrogenium (~5 chapters)
✧Where The Wind Blows, by @Railgun
And the list of what I've already reviewed will be in this spoiler.
Thanks for reading, and for helping me to read more, too!! Looking forwards to see how this goes!! Starting tomorrow~
