    I love it how

    Salonians all try and act like they are peer reviewers on some scholarly journal, attaching the reviewer as often as the ideas brought up in the review. Please, speaking directly to the author is not needed and does little to improve a forum. It just makes you look like a self-important jerk. If you want to be a creative writing professor, please, undergo the decades of wasted time and frustration that one must put into the profession.
