Creative Criticisms and a Book Review

Yes, I have my first review for A Warrior's Longing!! Yes I am thrilled even though I received 3.5 stars. Why you ask...

Simply. If someone does not review or give creative feedback then how do I know what I need to do to improve myself as a writer.

I don't belong to a critic group, due to the closest one on over an hour away. I'm sure I can find one online, but with the way I've been working the day job lately, well I've lost contact with the awesome writers I used to chat with on a daily basis through Yahoo, and I'm lucky if I have a day a week to give toward my writing.
Hmmm...that doesn't sound right now does it?? I guess that's for another blog to sort out.

Soooo, back to the point at hand.
Thank You Victoria Cross and Night Owl Reviews!! I do appreciate you taking the time to read my work and voicing your creative words. I will most defiantly take all into consideration and make sure my next read is better!

A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Victoria Cross

A Warriors Longing is definitely steamy. The chemistry between Lord Gage and Meiken is strong enough to raise anyone’s blood pressure. C.A. Salo did an excellent job blending the sci-fi, romance and erotica genres. Not everyone can do it so seamlessly. However, while the overall plot is solid, some scene transitions seem rough, almost rushed. Some of the characters seem to be rushed in, while others seem to be rushed out, leaving loose ends that seem to be forgotten. I think with a little bit of character building and a little polish, the book could be much improved. Not that it’s horrible, by any means. It just seems rushed. Despite the rushed feeling of the book, it was a pleasant read, and I wouldn’t hesitate to read any of C.A. Salo’s other books.
