Now, now.
While I do agree that certain rules have been
violated, I disagree with Nacht's way of expressing it.
Such as,
I would like to see this transform
from a block of text to paragraphs.
For dialogue to be separated from one
character to another. Perhaps, being ambitious,
but to see the vocabulary being used vary.

1 like no other
I turn towards Jacob after taking off my seat belt. His gaze caught mine and my heart swelled slightly. My hand slid into his slowly and he pulled me closer with his other arm. Like always he seemed to be able to read my mind. He lifted our hands and brushed the back of his fingers across my cheek. At the hot touch my cheeks grew red slightly. "Jacob..." I whispered softly. "Bella..." he whispered back with a light smile. He leaned his head down and his lips pressed down against mine. My free hand lifted up to his cheek as my head tilted back and my lips pressed back against his. As our lips meshed together and my heart started to beat faster I could feel that possibly I could be with Jacob. He had healed me through this far.
Using your first post as an example:
what I highlighted happened
to be examples of words that you continually
use to begin a sentence. What I had slanted
were examples of sentence fragments. The
first should've either had a comma or completely
re-formatted the structure. While, the second sentence;
either cut out and to replace it with a comma then after 'faster'
end the sentence. Other words that were, also repeat offenders:
my, his, and he. There are also some other grammatical
discrepancies along with a string of my own rules for writing.
An example of my own rules; don't tell the audience/readers
how characters feel, show them with actions, word choice, and behavior.
I believe in criticism: however, there is constructive
and then there's flaming. My belief is that a critique
is meant to point out weak points so that it may result
in stronger and more efficient writing.
