Questions for Peer Reviewers

1. Think of plot—is it original? (If an adaptation, is it creative or interesting to you?) What suggestions do you have for the author(s)?

2. Think about problems that the characters face. Are there complications that add enough suspense, tension, or interest? Is there a climax that satisfies you? Is the resolution satisfying? What could be added or changed?

3. Think of characterization—are the characters life-like? Are characters likable and enjoyable? Do we get a good sense of character from many of these: description, dialogue, narrator's opinion, discussion from other characters, the character’s own actions?

4. Think of imagery and details. Do they help you //see// and //hear// and //experience// the story? What details would you like to see in the next revision of the story?

5. What areas of the story need the most improvement? What suggestions do you have for the author? Feel free to upload your podcast or a picture if you like.

Brett Dymek's Flat Tales  Sam Bernardez is the Patriots’ strong safety. He is in the middle of practice when a college kid runs onto the field. The college kid put a bullet into Sam’s elbow. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 16px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> <span style="color: rgb(0, 255, 0); background-color: rgb(33, 2, 2);"> Sam then went to his doctor. His doctor’s name is Dr. Francis. He was a specialist on rehab of people that have been shot. He does only physical help but his brother does mental heath (Dr. Francis helps you heel and his brother helps you not be upset at that person. Sam only needed Dr. Francis.) <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> Doctor Francis told Sam that his injury might keep him away from the field for a year. Sam pleaded Doctor Francis to try to find some way he could get back on the field. The doctor said that there is a surgery that could make you only be out for four months or out for 18 months. Sam went through the surgery. He got the better side of the surgery. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> During the recovery process Sam’s fiancé Yoshanda Colle was always there for him. Sam’s kids Andy, Cole and Jacob always cheered him up when he was sad. Dr. Francis would usually tell Yoshanda how Sam’s recovery is going instead of telling Sam himself. It would lead to conversations that say, “How did it go was it good or bad” and Yoshanda would tell Sam. Only 1 time there was bad news. That was when he told Yoshanda what the procedure was going to be. Also what they would need to use. Dr. Francis told Yoshanda that, “ We will have to go through a medical procedure where we remake most of his elbow. They will need to insert 2 metal rods and an elastic band into Sam’s arm. Then we will use this radiation that only the metal reacts to. The radiation will bend the metal”. Yoshanda was horrified and did not tell Sam about the procedure. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> Sam does not know what is in his arm and cannot feel any difference besides his elbow being wider than the other elbow. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> Sam was able to come back for the Super Bowl. The patriots were playing the Cardinals. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> He was guarding the tight end on the 4th play on the game. It was 3rd and 10 at the 32-yard line. He let the tight end catch the ball and run for a 40-yard gain. Sam was so annoyed after the play. The drive ended as a touchdown Sam’s coach said, “Don’t give up we need you out there on the field to win the super bowl”. Sam replied, “ Yes coach”. Sam was solid for the rest of the game. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> The patriots went on to win the Super Bowl. The final score was 24 to 10. Sam got the MVP with 2 sacks, 6 tackles and an interception. It will go down as one of the best Super Bowl performances ever. <span style="line-height: 150%; font-size: 14px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif;"> He still went through rehab. He was able to make the full recovery for next season. The next season he statistically had his best year. Sam now feels much better and has put the shooting behind him. Any ways they found the body of the shooter dead in the Grand Canyon. <span style="color: rgb(0, 255, 0); background-color: rgb(33, 2, 2);">
