Review for U-KISS Hello Baby: Tween Version by RKP_Yoshi

Review by ScreamingMidget

 

Title (6/10) :

I think for fanfics that are centered around variety shows, it’s the norm to have a title that resembles their parent show so I’m not going to take off too many points for that. Still, I think it would have been more attractive to me, as a reader, if you had gotten a little more creative. If most people basing stories on shows actually title their show like that, you should probably not.

What about something like: “Just When You Least Expect It” Because the girl didn’t expect to get in, right? Something a little different would have been nice. Even if having a ‘tween’ is a good idea, you can’t rely on that solely to get readers.

Description & Foreword (6/10) :

I like your description! It’s succinct and hits the target. However, your foreword could use some work. Don’t ever put an author’s note in your foreword. I guess there are some really popular AFF writers that do that but I don’t like when they do it either so I’m not just picking on you! I know you’re not as serious about this story as you are about ‘Scarred for Life’. I know exactly what you mean because I do the same with my stories (I have one that I just dump ideas and jokes on when I get writer’s block with another) but never, ever tell that to your readers! Try to make your story look as appealing as you can. Even if you don’t spend that much time on it, don’t let your readers think that you don’t care about that story.

If you keep mentioning ‘writer’s block’, your readers will start thinking you’ll never finish that story and they won’t subscribe or support it!

My only suggestion is to delete that note on your foreword and give a little taste of your writing style instead.

Content & Plot (16/20) :

I can’t say the whole ‘variety show fic’ is original. I know having a story centered around a show gives off a good feel when you’re thinking of story ideas...I would have been more impressed as a reader if you tried to think up your own show. Instead of  but you did a great job twisting it into something that is way more creative and spontaneous! I love how you chose ‘Hello Baby’ because most people always go with ‘We Got Married’. Your choice in show suits the comedy genre really well.

Characters (10/10) :

I liked Taejoon immediately! I think you portrayed all the characters really well! You got creative with this. I like Taejoon’s character. I think her personality is relatable and age-appropriate. You two are both at a similar age, right? It’s great! I can definitely see that you might be acting through Taejoon and I really love her.

Grammar & Spelling (10/10) :

Amazing job! I can’t even...like I don’t know if you’re okay with me gushing about your age but WOWOWOWOW. If I just saw your writing, I’d say you were like maybe 16? You’re that good. Keep it up!

Organization/Flow (6/10) :

I personally think you should work on this a little bit. The motions in the beginning were kind of jerky. I liked the whole scene with her mom calling all those stylists but remember that you’re the writer. You can see everything in your head. The reader can’t! So just relying on

Appearance (7/10) :

I guess having a background is personal preference but personally, I like stories with backgrounds. I’m not going to take off any points for that...but I really think you need a poster. It can be boring to read - even if the writing itself is great - if there’s no color at all.

Enjoyment (19/20) :

You have a story with a lot of potential on your hands! Treat it well :D I really did enjoy it! I hate to discriminate...based on age, at least but you write so amazingly AMAZING for your age! I genuinely think you could make a great professional writer one day! If you get an idea in your head, you can’t always trust it to be very unique. It could have stemmed off from something else. Just keep twisting and twisting and twisting it until it reflects only you. I wanted to say that because you’re already twisting ideas by having a ‘tween’ instead of a baby on the show! Good work!!

Total :80/100

Any comments : I had another story reviewed from here so I know some of the aspects are lacking/bad/not recommended, but this is an old story. I don't particularly want to change it (like the description/forward/poster) because when I look back I can see how I grew as a writer and learned from my mistakes. I will appreciate any criticism, but just wanted to let the reviewer know this... I'm not ignoring previous advice or advice I will receive from this review.

From a scale from 1 - 10; 1 being not very, 10 being fully, how fluent are you in English? : 9 (i was born here but I'm not the best writer out there)
On average, how many days a week are you active on AFF? : I'm usually on every day, but usually only for an hour or so on the weekdays. Monday is my busiest day, and I'll try my best to be on that day. My weekends are quite empty; my least busy day is Sunday. is this too much info otl
On average, how long (on average) does it take you to read a story and write a review? : well it obviously depends on the length of a story. ofc i'll try to to it right after i finish the story. On average I'd say 2-5 days (the weekend being included in those days, please)
What genres of stories do you prefer to review and which do you not? : Anything, really, except I'd say I don't think I'd be very good at reviewing psychological fanfiction/fanfiction where you're supposed to figure things out by yourself because my common sense skills are definitely not top notch. ALSO NO HORROR PLEASE
Do you accept / yuri/ rated/ ? : Sure
Portfolio (optional) : dont have one orz ouo

Chapter 28: Organization/ Flow: Yeah? I wanted to specify, you know, the exact time and I guess it was the easiest way. I'm sorry about the rainbow! I found myself lost in time in the story without the time thingy, that's why I added it so it won't confused the readers. I won't happen in other fics I promised XD
Appearance : Thanks! Yes i made it myself^^ No, I don't work in a poster shop because I have too much school work and I don't really have time, I barely have time to write a fic >.> Ahh...some readers doesn't like a background color so I didn't put one.

Enjoyment: I'm glad you liked the story and thanks for subscribing! I will try to update...hum..soon.

Yeah, i did wait for a looong time. I mean, I come everyday to see if someone took an interested to review it and it still stays in the "Queue" section after a while. I was sad no one picked my story D; Then you saw all the other stories posted after mine been in the "In progress" section...after a few days, they are completed and mine is still...*sigh* I was like, "My story isn't that good huh?" So no one wanna read it! Haha that's what I felt Dx Anyway, I liked it! It was worth waiting, I was smiling while reading the review! And nope, I do know you had your life and stuffs so it's okay^^

Chapter 28: Thanks awkwardtofu211 for the review!

To Jangmii : it's okay, it was worth it!

Back to awkwardtofu211 :

Description/Foreword : oh I'm sorry, I thought writing "sequel" was enough for people to understand that it's after Trapped, since I also specified in the sequel that this sorry was the prequel :/

Content/Plot : Sunggyu got the job after the interview at the end of the story. I will try to add more hype and intensity in my next chapters or fic! I know right? That's what I don't want to! isn't something to be pleasurable indeed. Haha I read some fics like that too and it's really unrealistic, that's also one of the reason I don't let them fall in love together, I just can't. POV? I've never written a POV but I guess I'll try it someday? ^^;;

Grammar/Spelling : Aish, I knew I had a lot of mistakes. For the mistake #7: you know that people does the thousand steps because they are thinking like really deeply? And then I said "he stopped", so it means that he found the solution? XD Sorry if you didn't understand because it made sense to me so I thought it made sense to everybody lol

For real? I really didn't know there are such shop here! But if you really can beta for me, I don't have to search for one, right? right? :D
