How to Request

Hi, Dear! I can see that you're here. Thank you for your interest.

          First of all, shout out to Karasubara (karasubara) who helped me on how to give critique. So, you might see some similarities on how we do our critique. Go check her out. Thanks, Love!

          Second, let me tell you how I will critique your story. I usually provide in-depth and detailed critique on the characterization, description/setting, plot (usually chapter story line), and grammar. I will point out what I like, give my impression, and/or comment on what could be improved and how to do it. So, for those with google docs, you will have a higher chance of acceptance because I find it easier to comment on the story. Especially in terms of sentence construction or grammar. But of course, your story still have the chance to be accepted even if you don't have the google docs.

         Third, my payment method includes (1) reading and comment on a story, (2) permanent follow, and (3) adding a story to a public reading list. It will be listed in the form. Now, the importance of the permanent follow is for me to possibly endorse your book if someone requests for my service repeatedly. The how-to-get-me-to-endorse-your-book is a completely different matter. I'll message it through an announcement. One of these days. 

          Fourth and foremost, below are the steps you should strictly follow in order to get accepted. However, I do have the right to decline if I feel like your book is not my cup of tea. What I'll have to gently decline are fanfiction ('cos I'm not familiar with the fandom), poems (I'm not good with the structure), mature (I'm not so mature myself), and lgbt (I am open to such with friends and all, but please don't judge if I don't read it). No offense for these categories, they're just not my cup of tea. Comment below 'request sent' after you send me the request in order to get shortlisted.

          Step 1: Fill out the form on the external link.

          Step 2: Wait for my response before doing the payment. Doing the payment first before I accept, does NOT guarantee acceptance. In fact, it will cancel the request.

          Step 3: After I accept, you must do the payment first before I start critiquing.

          Step 3: If I accept your request, please be patient because it takes time for me to give a detailed critique. Please be very patient if there's a long line of requests. Check out the List of Request in the next chapter.

          Let me know if you have any questions. I'll be happy to answer them.
