Writing Reviews on MouthShut

Being a very new member of this awesome site , I humbly admit that I have just written 4 reviews of which 2 are Somewhat Recommended & 2 are ( Thank God ...whew !! ) Recommended ! ( BIG TIME SMILE )


The question therefore will be asked as to Who am I to opine on '' Writing Reviews on MouthShut '' !!!


Well , I am a learner and this is what I have learnt ( and still learning !! ) :


WHILE WRITING REVIEWS.....




  1. It is best to write reviews on subjects in which you have a fairly adequate knowledge !




Mundane & irrelevant statements made , has no impact whatsoever.


The information should be USEFUL to others




  1. My review shouldn't appear to communicate that I am the LAST WORD on the subject !




However knowledgeable I might be , there is always room for modesty !




  1. I remember the teachings of my professor ( from my college at Darjeeling ) , Fr.Stanford , ..




'' Follow the K.I.S.S principle. ''


That is '' Keep It Simple & Stupid ( To be understood by all )


My English need not be verbose & flowery. It should be simple but correct English




  1. My review should be structured and well knit.




Loosely structured reviews are dull & drab & will fail to evoke any interest amongst readers.


I have often gone off to sleep reading my own ill knit & unstructured reviews.




  1. A dash of good humour will only make my review that much more readable .




Serious , Stiff Upper Lipped reviews are ok & definitely relevant but I prefer reviews which ,at the end of it , will leave me with a smile !!


AFTER WRITING REVIEWS.....




  1. Feel elated or sad as the case maybe ( depending upon how many people have read my '' Review '' & how have they rated the review ! ( No harm in feeling this way ! Not to feel guilty ...after all , we are mere mortals ).




  2. Have a positive attitude towards '' Ratings '' !






I need to admit that every reader is entitled to his/her own opinion /judgements !


I attempt to thank people who have rated my review positively & now I am seriously making efforts to thank readers who have rated my review poorly. This is not an easy task but I have already convinced myself that all said and done , these members atleast took time off to read my review & I disappointed them !




  1. Continue to wait with bated breath ( like a high school kid waiting for his/her result on the D - DAY ) to see how my review has been accepted !!




Ha Ha Ha !


Come on !! We all do that !! Don't we ? ( Wink )
