This account is used solely for critiquing others' stories.

So that means: I will not do any beta-ing for anyone.

When I review a story, I look for a few basic things:

1) Does the story have a good summary?

2) A good plot?

3) Decent spelling?

4) Grammar?

5) Punctuation?

6) Non Sue?

7) None of those: Me: well, hopped u enjoy! Sasuke: yeah, lol!

8) No chat speak?

9) Decent dialogue (one where the dialogue is punctuated correctly, and doesn't sound like a mushy soap opera)?

10) Can spell the fandom's name, characters, and powers (jutsus, moves, bloodlines, family names, "famous" landmarks in the fandom, etc.)?

11) Is the beta doing a good job?

Not everyone will fall under all of those. If they have some of it, I'll still point it out and make sure none of those mistakes happen again. If you do have a beta, and I still review your story, then you need a new beta. Maybe even a better one.

I hope you can learn from your mistakes.

- It's really hard giving original con crit to everyone (seeing as there's a lot of junk to wade through), so I'll try to work one on that will apply to almost all stories.
