turn out the lights
Content: 35/40
I am glad that your entries weren't detailed, real-life stories of the same thing you wrote about (because I see that what you write is reality, but written far more artfully). I enjoyed, as much as one could enjoy, the way your entries were written simply because they weren't ungodly detailed and as horrific as I imagine the experiences must have been. They were artistically sculpted stories that I could swallow (and yes, I am shallow in the matter that I am not as calloused to the things you are), and I actually thank you for them. I loved all of your uses of run on sentences and adjectives, because they heightened the reading experience for me. Also, the way everything was fragmented up, I could follow along with what was happening better than if they were jumbled together. Another neat thing about the way you write is that because you dont' write as often, the fact that your stories aren't as detail oriented isn't as big of a deal, because each entry is it's own story and I can follow along with one single entry, rather than a full autobiography.
Literary style/Grammar: 9/10
Grammar, yes. Punctuation, beyond capitalization, was fine. Literary style was definately artistic and thought-provoking. Nice job.
Layout: 12/15
Well, I don't much like it, but I see very well how it matches your writing. The colors look good, the design is clean and easy to use, and the font is legible. This is a very nice pick for your stories and your style of writing.
Contact: 4/5
Notes, AIM, EMail.
Extras: 5/5
Reviews, Cults, Wishlist, Rings, Girl.
Ethereality: 8/15
Hm....this is a little harder for me, because while your entries are definately unique, I do think they are also very similar to other stories I could find out on diaryland/diary-x. So, I suppose you recieved these points for the way you told the stories, not necessarily the stories themselves.
Will I return? 1/5
Theoretically, nah. Your content is not to my style.
