I have written my first review and I thought this would be a good spot to post a link to it.  I put it on my myspace page since it is a little long.

In his review of FS #9, Dan said...
"Tyler's Bed & Breakfast " by Lyn Perry is a short tale about ghosts which really did not move me. There are just too many possible answers to the underlying question. The caller could be a relative or a distressed ghost groupie or another ghost.
Someone asked me who the caller was, and I didn't know! lol Could be (the ghost of) Margaret, the wife of James who died at sea and who killed Captain Tyler. Or it could be a deranged caller - "ghost groupie" - I love it. :-)

I liked the actual content of the review, but the formatting was a little rough. Leaving an extra space between reviews of different stories would be nice, and maybe the title of the story in bold would work well as well.

Ditto Jordan - since Dan gave a short comment about each story, maybe each piece could have it's own paragraph and highlight the title and author. It could turn a generic blog entry into a descriptive review, imo.
