My Review of Lady of the Sea

"Kudos go to Melinde Mari-Venter author of Lady of the Sea, one of perhaps the most imaginative pieces of writing I've ever read, ever. Overall, it was a true masterpiece, and although the punctuation itself was top-notch the grammar in and of itself would need a little work, oh and then of course their was the epilogue which in and of itself was a little out of place, but other than that the conception of the plot was top-notch."

Intriguing Chapter!

"I liked how this chapter is setting the stage for what will follow in future chapters. In the last part of the chapter we begin to see what the fate of those girls that were swept out to see might have been, now will the return? Only future chapters will tell! Liked the use of descriptions and details to set the scene in my mind as I read, I would caution though, about making people, especially the girls seem to perfect. Otherwise very well done!"

Story has a great Plot

"I like your writing style (it a sassy hint to an older English style without definitely hinting to writing styles such as medieval times English) and the plot of the story! It's something minty cool, but it needs work on a details around the events that you've put in place some more descriptions to make the story shine like I know it can! You have definitely given some air of mystery to the story and at first glance over I was hooked to the idea. It's fairly well written for a first draft and from what gathered a quickly written one at that. Can't wait for the second draft, but will, I want to completely finish reading the story once you're done with editing and adding some more details, or lighting for the story to shine through. (Read till chapter 4) and glanced through the later chapters. Like said well written for a quick written first draft but needs more etchings and shading like a picture that the frame work is done for and now needs coloring and dimension. A tip I can give is to build around the concept of the 'monster' the 'undine' the 'nymphs' and what 'humans' are according to the story. I was peaked when read about nymphs, but the lack of prior shades to the story made it unclear to me what nymphs are to this world of yours. but what I can make out of, it could be something/someone great! Further world-building will help you with a second draft."
