A: (1) For every one hundred poems sent to MyStoriesAndPoems.com for Theme-Story critiques, there will be one hundred unique takes on Theme-Story Poems. In order to address everyone's individual need, it is necessary for your poems to be critiqued by Silly Mommy because with the exception of in-house and school related MyStoriesAndPoems Workshops, this is the only way for kids to take full advantage of this program. (2) Furthermore, it is only way for me to help with your Non-Theme-Related Poems. Free Critiques are offered on the Critiques Page. |
