Hi~ Currently I'm working on a paragraph for a prompt each about Romeo and Juliet, turns out I completely forget they were due tomorrow, but that's besides the point haha. I'm just curious if anyone who feels confident enough in their writing skills would be willing enough to read through some of my responses and give a bit of criticism (about whatever, grammar, flow, word choice, how well it answers the prompt, etc.) I'd prefer to do it through pms if possible~ 

And to be clear, I am not asking anyone to write it for me, haha. Just simply look through what I've already written :)

 

Edit: I feel it's probably important to add at least a little indicator on the level of writing I'm at heh, forgot about that >.>" So I'm in highschool~ Probably not that great at writing though, xd

I can do it if you’d like! I’ve never read Romeo and Juliet though, so I may not be the best person (but I’m relatively confident in my writing!) :)

I am a Junior in high school and I'm pretty good at writing (it's my strong suit), so maybe I can help?

I'd be happy to help if you still need it (the more opinions the better). I studied Romeo and Juliet at GCSE (exams taken age 15/16 in the UK) so it's been a few years but I can remember a fair bit.

I’m quite a good writer, if you like just send it to me, I can’t guarantee good feedback, but I’ll tell you my thoughts. :D

Thank you to everyone who helped!!! Luckily, I got them all submitted on time~ And hopefully I won't procrastinate this much in the future :laughing: If I didn't respond to your dms (or said I would send more and then didn't) I just didn't have the time at the moment (even if i was reading them pms). With other school work I was being a bit rushed (which is all my bad for procrastinating), so I appreciate what everyone was able to help with :heartbeat:

lol, i know how it feels. You procrastinate, then panic, then don't do anything about it xD. But the reason I procrastinate is because it still gets done in the end lol.

 

Glad to help :)

Teacher be speedy, he already graded my first paragraph response~ (the one most of y'all saw, though not sure any of y'all saw the final draft lol). 

And I'm so happy to say it was a 20/20!! Which is great for a major assessment grade especially ^.^

So just again a thank you to those who helped me!! Your comments not only helped the one specific paragraph, but gave me things to think about for my others as well :)

Hey. I'm also always ready to help with proofreading. I'm a second-year student, and Literature is my major. Maybe I'm not a professional yet, but I have some writing and editing experience and will be happy to help! But to be honest, I have trouble with writing and editing research papers. If it is literary texts, then I'm good, but when it's research, I have difficulties, so I use the help of https://edubirdie.com/research-paper-editing-service myself. Yes, I study Literature, but I have some extra courses where I have to write such a complicated papers. And I think that if you need a very accurate review, you can also try to use a professional editing service.
