Paul Ellis (paulkellis) | 4 comments Is it always this difficult to get reviews at Coursera?


Big Idea: https://www.coursera.org/learn/write-...
Logline: https://www.coursera.org/learn/write-...
Dramatic Question: https://www.coursera.org/learn/write-...

Thank you for taking the time to review these. I'm always a little hesitant to intrude on personal time and greatly appreciate your indulgence.

Feel free to use my review guidelines: https://bityl.co/BHBC.

Marcia | 39 comments You'll get reviews for the first few assignments and then it's crickets. I have 8 chapters out there and feedback ultimately stopped around week 6.
The majority of my reviews have been, great writing, interesting, good job and not too many that are actually constructive. I am using it more now as accountability and grazing information for the videos.
Don't worry so much about intruding. The beauty is that unlike phone calls which require one to stop their life, posting online lets everyone get to it when their time allows.

Andres Rodriguez (aroddamonster) | 619 comments I see what your doing with your big idea but it loses it cool, shes doing this but he's doing that when the city comes into the wording because you also identify the city as being female.

What if you wrote,

and the city holds secrets of ITS own, lurking beneath the hot springs and buried deep within the silver mines...

Andres Rodriguez (aroddamonster) | 619 comments Your logline sounds like a good western.

Andres Rodriguez (aroddamonster) | 619 comments With no hope for continuing, she builds him a future but her way seems barricaded as he encounters her past. How then can they help each other forward when assumptions and motivations constantly shift around them?

I said this in my deep narrator voice after reading yours and just thought it sounded cool. Either way, I'm not a BIG western person but that legendary weapon line kinda got me... When's your first chapter?
