It is not a personal blog. So bite me.
--------------
Don't get too excited when you get a long-ass review in your email. If it's long, it's probably from me. ;]
And I'm a bitch when it comes to reviewing. Sort of. There are always exceptions.
I will always review if I read your story, and I will always tell you exactly what I think about it. If it's not perfect, I won't tell you it is. I will NOT tell you to continue soon if I don't really care if you do. I will be completely and absolutely honest, so don't get offended and just suck it up. I don't review just to flatter people and tell them they're the best author I've ever seen.
I know I need to take some of my own advice when it comes to my stories, so don't complain about my being hypocritical. The reason I always go through writer's block is because WRITING IS HARD. I know that. And few of us can ever be perfect at writing ALL THE TIME.
Look, if I give you advice, just TAKE IT. If I praise your writing, trust me, the story's awesome. If I don't, then it can always be better.
I AM NOT A FLAMER. I only provide constructive criticism. If you have a problem with that, PM me, message me, comment me at any of my sites, whatever. Just don't start crying and starting shit.
If anything, you should be grateful that I've taken the time to click on the link to your story despite its problems, and be thankful that I've also taken the time to try and help you.

my trademark:
I leave long-ass reviews. Like essay-length. It almost always is a mess of constructive criticism, but I never flame. I try to mention both good and bad things about the story. I review ALMOST every story I read, the exceptions being all the really awesome ones that don't need more reviews anyway because there's like a billion already, and the ones that are just so horrendous I don't even know where to start. I sign with my trademark "xx" to symbolize the bad things (poison) and the good things (kisses).

Who steals my purse steals trash tis something, nothing;
Twas mine tis his and has been slave to thousands.
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him
and makes me poor indeed.
