Hi guys. I love writing, and have since I was a kid. At the moment I am currently working on a story, and I want to give you guys a little taster to it. I really need some constructive critiscm or comments! Thank you! The glow from the full moon illuminated the girl, the wind whipped her face, and the cold night air sent shivers down her spine. She took a breath of the icy cold wind, inhaling slowly. She closed her eyes and felt the air on her eyelids, her bare arms and legs, her face. When the porcelain girl exhaled, it sent a foggy mist in the air around her, swirling before disappearing completely into the cold night. Something cold and hard caressed her face softly. Colder than the breeze, colder than ice. She exhaled and opened her eyes. She heard a soft murmur. A murmur of pleasure, a murmur of wanting, of hunger. The cold hand pulled her sandy hair away from her neck, inhaling heavily all the while. She sucked in her breath quickly, and tensed. There was a pause.
A screamed echoed throughout the clearing, and the warm blood flowed. Oh, and ignore typos if there is any, I'm not paying too much attention to them yet. |

Is this a sims story or for a novel you're writing? I hope you've got a good plot since we're awash in Vampire / supernatural novels. |

Cool! Good luck in your novel - that little teaser you gave was a little too much on the "tease" and not much info, unfortunately, so it would be hard to give you any constructive criticism (other than - I hope you've got a good vampire plot) based on that at this point. | |

The teaser was supposed to have little information, but still hinting a bit to what was going on. |

Well... It's not my taste. I hate over-the-top, fantastical descriptive passages. The scene you set was just too...y'know...pretty. I don't like that. I'd rather have some thoughts and emotions in there, some...character. I don't want beautiful moonlight girls on icy nights. It feels like a written photograph. I'm watching it, but I'm not in it. The hints you have given suggest a story that I would not want to read, however well written it might be. In all honesty, this is just not my style. I'm not saying that this is bad, I'm just saying that I don't like it. I know people who would, but I'm not one of them. Don't totally ignore what I'm telling you, but don't stress over it or try to change your story completely because of it. |

Does reading dumb signatures make you feel powerful in some way?
