Score: 85/100
My Comments: It was nice. I understand why she gave me the scores in each category.
Snippets: I think that you're always really honest with yourself, like in this entry. That makes it pretty interesting to read, yet, I still find myself skimming through because of the lenghth. | I love the way you write! There's just this special something to it, but I can't really put my finger on it. You describe things so well it's amazing, like in this entry. It's almost as if I was at that music recital myself...I'm happy to see that someone enjoys music as much as I do. I think that's probably my favorite entry of yours that I read. | In short, I think you're a wonderful writer, and you're journal would be even better if you shortened your entries a bit. Your journal was really fun to read, but I still skimmed through a lot of your entries because they were so long. Sometime when I have more time on my hands, I may come back and read your entries all the way through.

Score: 126/150
My Comments: I really appreciated her honesty and the fact that she read a lot and was so patient. And her compliments were generous.
Snippets: You have excellent grammar, and you write very eloquently. | I probably will come back, as you write so beautifully. Makes me feel incompetent. | I hope that you keep writing, as you really have a knack for it.

Whipped Revue
Score: 86/100
My Comments: This is a wonderful site. I got the review fast and I could tell the reviewer really spent time in it. She did an excellent job, complimented and gave constructive criticism.
Snippets: I can see that you're an extremely intelligent person, and I have great respect for that. You write intelligently, think intelligently, and you don't annoy me with slang and other unneccesary words. Often, I found entries like this one here or there that made me smile. Not many people can write like that, even when describing something so simple. | You have many different styles in your writing, which allows your readers to see different sides of your personality. You're extremely discriptive when it comes to even the smallest details, such as which necklace you were wearing. I'm not sure if you're doing this for record-keeping purposes, but it does seem to be working for you. You're very charismatic in the way you write, whether you're happy, sad, or even just having a "blah" sort of day | Many times when I was going through your diary, I said to myself,"Wow. I wish I could write like this." You have an incredible knack for expressing yourself exactly the way you want to, and I really admire that. | I really loved the way you were able to incorporate yor emotions into this entry, without being dramatically over-bearing ~~ Thanks so much, Amber!


Score: Red [A-] for writing style
My Comments: I loved the honesty.
Snippets: I really agree with what you said. Everyone wants to be better than what they are but few of us can really accept the parts that we can't change are okay. This entry was really deep and I could tell that you are a very smart person with correct ideals. | I think that you've definately got a lot to say. I know you can write because some of what you said did interest me, but most of it was day logs and I don't like reading day logs much. I'd say that you know yourself very well and there were many topics where if it were interesting to me, I would've totally been hooked, because it's not the way you write, it's what you write about that makes your diary boring. | By the way, I really love your username, ktdream. It's very simple and really describes you; it's one of the best I've seen/heard of. ~~ Thanks Anna!

Starlit-Lily Reviews
Score: 167/200
My Comments: This is absolutely the sweetest review, with contructive criticism that I understand and will try to follow, as well as unworthy praise and compliments that made me blush.
Snippets: "You come across as being soft and gentle, a person without enemies, someone who is loved by all--and who seems to love all. As dorky as this sounds, if I knew you, I'd want to be friends with you. You present an aura of intelligence and softness, and trustworthiness. In short, you come across as being beautiful. | You're definitely observant of the glory in other people, and in the exerpts of your professional writing that you include, it's very apparent that you're a sensitive, soulful young woman. | By the way, I love girls who go by Kathy rather than "Katie" or "Kate". I always thought anyone could be a Katie or a Kate, but that it takes true personal strength to be Kathy. | You have a beautiful writing style. Even if you didn't state it many, many times in your diary, I would be able to guess you were majoring in some field of English. You're well-spoken, and thorough, and very descriptive. | I was floored to realize that, in spite of the fact that you daylog, you still manage to speak of your spirituality, of the beauty in your life, about deeper things than just, "I saw so-and-so today!" And you made me laugh, and smile. | I learned to like you, a lot, as I read your diary. You're so...kind, it seems. But strong. You doubt yourself at times--don't we all?--but you're basically happy, it seems. You describe things with a flare that impresses even me. I can see how you'd make a wonderful writer, and truthfully, I look forward to reading your work in the future." ~~ Cielamara THANK YOU!


Score: 5 stars
My Comments: It was really nice. I'm glad she read so much of my diary and seemed to understand.

Judge-Me
Score: 73/100
My Comments: She didn't really like my writing but she liked me a lot and everything else. It was all right.

Kiss Me Revue
Score: 75/100
My Comments: Basically liked the layout, but didn't go with my entries because they're so long. Really the only thing said about my writing was that they are way too long, but whatever. I think she was too harsh in taking away so many points for some things, but I'm not worrying or going to change based on reviews anymore, because this is so much more for me now. It's not worth it. At least they know I'm sweet, saw the emotion and enjoyed reading it. So actually, it wasn't that bad.


Score: 92/100
My Comments: This is a wonderful review that I enjoyed because I liked the advice she gave. It was also nice because it was so encouraging and she didn't just say "bad diary because you write about your day" or something to that extent.

Acid Reviews
My Score: 76/100
My Comments: It was nice. I could understand why she gave me the scores.

WS Reviews
Score: 88/100
My Comments: Really short, but highest score so far.

Elurien
Score: 49/100
My Comments: I appreciated such an in depth review, even though I was somewhat appalled by it. I don't know how to respond to some of it, because I add my feelings within each entry on a lot of different things. If you didn't catch that, you didn't really read. I know there are some people who only put perspectives, opinions, feelings and it's always so deep. I don't want to do that because that's not my style, I just add feelings to most of the events I bring up. Still it's just an opinion and though they do matter, I don't need to let them get to me negatively.

Our-Views
Score: 103/100
My Comments: This brought tears to my eyes. Such a well-thought out, lots of time spent on it, and she really read everything. It's an extra special review that was well worth the wait. It's wonderful, sweet, amazing and I will always go back to it and remember...

Marty Zauberman's Diary Rating Service rated this diary a 90 out of a possible 100.
90! Can you fucking believe that?

Rose Reviews
Score: 98/100
My Comments: Very nice review site. Snippets: "You give details and use adjectives. You're writing about your daily life, which is technically what I diary is for but it gets mundane from most people. However, you do it brilliantly. I looked and looked for bad stuff in your content and it just wasn't there."

Will and Grace Reviews
Score: 94/100
My Comments: Amazing. Thoroughly enjoyable to receive. Loved the comments in Content area. Some snippets: "Storybook quality. Details and descriptions galore. Here is a genuine diary. I can't find a thing to criticize."

Orgasmic Review
Score: 90/100
My Comments: I thought some of the things said about what I did to the layout and archiving was hurtful but otherwise I can't complain. Plus I got in the fame page.

Gbee Reviews
Score: 84/100
My Comments: Not a bad review.

Lavish Review
Score: 94/100
My Comments: It's a suprise that the reviewer has never done this before. It comes naturally to her. I really loved the review she gave me and she said soo many helpful things. She catches spelling mistakes and links where they are too so you're able to fix them.

Better Than You Reviews Score: 15+1/20
My Comments: I was one point away, but now I can join the ring because I emailed the owner and explained the situation. So nice! =)

Score: 74/100
My Comments: I really liked this review. She didn't like the layout but thought content, etc was decent. And I'm in her "top diaries" page!

Magick Review
Scores: 91/125 and 97/125
My Comments: I was fine with it especially because one of the reviewers gave me a high content score. Yay. And I loved this comment: you don't reference anything particularily magickal, you have the buoyant personality of a sweet-natured faerie learning how to fly.

Caboodle Review
Score: 122/130

Hot Pink Views
Score: 92/100
My Comments: I got perfect on the writing score! Awesome. =)

Faded Reviews
Score: 82/100
My Comments: Pretty good one. I was happy with it. The only thing is I do have forward and backward links at the top (<<< >>>) and on the bottom called Last One & Next One.

USA Reviews
Score: 74/100
My Comments: It was a pretty good review. I liked it, but I keep thinking I've added more emotion in the newer entries... Oh well.

Glance Revu
Score: 87%
My Comments: Thanks!

Simply Our-Views
Score: 71/100
My Comments: Very nice review. I liked that the person wrote so many good things about my writing, but I would like to know why the score was semi-low if it seemed she enjoyed reading it. Oh well, it was still cool.

Compendious Reviews
Score: 124/200.
My Comments: Was reviewed very fast and I definitely recommend this review site. Even though my score isn't high, she had a lot of good things to say and said I have talent but it isn't displayed well in my diary. She was impressed by my website for English, which I'm glad she saw. =)

I Breathe Reviews
Score: 91/100.
My Comments: Thank you Joleen! You rock! =)

Abuse Review
Score: 75/100
My Comments: I received a 60/70 on the content, and she gave me a lot of constructive criticisms and examples to explain her comments. I enjoyed this review.

Utter-Views
Score: 80%.
My Comments: Pretty good one actually. She wasn't too harsh, but I still detest the writing score and comments in it. I freaking keep trying to write all this emotion and obviously it isn't working. For me personally, I tend to dwell on the negative so pardon me for writing about that in one entry. I get extremely wounded and sensitive and take things personally so yea, in that no emotions entry, it was a reaction right away but in retrospect, I think back on that review as a really great one with lots of constructive criticism. I personally reviewed my own diary and gave me a 81 points so anyway...

Girl Review
Score: 89/100
My Comments: You are truly a sweetheart Roe. All the lovely comments almost made me cry. Thank you.

Rockstar Reviews
Score: 84/100
My Comments: Thanks so much. I appreciate it. And it was nice of you not to make a *huge* deal about emotions. I know that this layout is very popular, but oh well. Maybe someday it'll be changed.


Score: 96/100
My Comments: Sweet, full content points!

Sugar-Review
Score: 80/100
My Comments: After waiting so long, I expected a much more thorough review. I don't think the person did a good job explaining scores but at least she seemed to like the diary.

Diary Reviews
Score: First:: 67/100 Re-Review:: 87/100
My Comments: You'll see now why I felt I was personally attacked by the first review. I would never ever say I don't want to change and/or improve my writing. She was completely out of line, but don't dwell on that. Just read the re-review at the bottom. Had a lot of good suggestions about layout but I know about them already, have heard them all too. I just don't really want to work on that right now because really, when do I have all the time? My online diary's not my #1 priority, you know. But I loved the good comments about my writing.

R-e-v-i-e-w

Comments: Good on writing except the first two sentences...

Special Revus
Score: 67/100.
My Comments: It wasn't bad at all especially since my writing score wasn't so low this time.

Score: 64/100
My Comments: Well I know I'm a good writer and I wrote about some emotions, but she was still nice about it.

Get Reviews
Score: 66/100.
My Comments: I did write about how I felt about finals and other stuff. And the No Emotion entry was for the benefit of showing emotion. I'm not going to get a re-review because I don't really care that much anymore.

One Time Blind Reviews
Score: 62/100
My Comments: Wow, lowest score yet but I don't mind because it was constructive and I know the person really read at least a month's worth of entries. She loved the layout (except links to the left, like almost every reviewer out there) but despised the entries. Also implied that I can't take criticism. Okay, let me explain something. Yes it is harder for me to take criticism and I react to it because everything I hear about me I take personally; it's always been that way but that doesn't mean I don't eventually try to understand it and everything. If you read some of the comments for reviews, like Utter Views you'll see at first I took it badly but learned from it. If you don't realize that I'm trying to accept these things, I don't want you here. Anyway the only reason this review is at the bottom of Done list is because it's the lowest score and I want to make it so that best scores are at the top.
