Hi. The name is Darcy, and I am a critic. I am seventeen years old, and I won't pretend to be anyone remotely qualified to be a professional critic. I would consider myself, however, a connoisseur of fanfiction. I won't delve into your style, because I believe that each writer has their own unique style. They write for them, and not for anyone else. But I will give you stuff to work on if your stories are littered with grammar errors, or if I think you're falling into a too cliche and overused plot.

I critique a lot of stories. I might have done so on yours. If you were offended by my points, note that none of them were given with malicious intent. You're asking me to tell you what I think about your work, and that's what I'm going to do. I consider myself quite strict when it comes to critiquing grammar. I understand that not everyone is proficient in English, and I will not look down on you if you aren't. I believe that considering English, as the universal language, the 'only language worth knowing' a manifestation of racial prejudices, as well as fascist supremacy. However, if you do happen to write in English, I will critique you, not to bring you down but to help you hone your speaking/writing skills and proficiency in that language.

I dwell in the depths of the Fairy Tail fandom. I run a forum where people can RP their OCs; Wisteria River. If you're reading this, note that you're always welcome to join and be a part of our little family.

Also, if you're interested in improving your writing skills, I run a contest forum for people who are new to writing fanfiction. I give comments you can build on for the next challenges.
