OK, here's my comments:

desert
There's nothing wrong with having a level like this, but the least you could do is make it look nicer. Add some obstacles and weather/lighting effects, and maybe add some more rooms.

I think there might be a problem with the speech too. In the exit room "nobody" speaks when (I guess) it should be Beethro. This is actually a problem throughout, unless it's intentional.

tombs
I don't particularly like the random lights in the entrance room

Once South - not keen on the random scripting at the beginning part (first time through)

e-stern sewers
Twice East - Quite a good little puzzle, actually! I'm not saying it was at all hard, but still it's quite nice.

Twice North, Once East - Yes, go back to the editor screen, click on the room (make sure it is highlighted orange) and then hit delete on you keyboard - DON'T press the delete button on the editor page because you'll delete the whole level! I've done that so many times...

Overall
A lot of spelling and grammar mistakes - you'll need to get someone to change that for you.

A lot of the rooms seemed a bit filler-ish, you might want to improve them before starting more rooms.

And sorry if any of that sounded harsh...

e-stern sewers

There's a problem with 2E-1E passage. I go to the north-eastern rooms without conquering 1E. Then I go to 2E(there's a force arrow there and I can't return the way I came). But when I'm trying to go back through 1E, I... I can't do it... :~(

Anyways, this is a little better than your first hold. Some easy but not too tedious puzzles are good. Keep trying to build something and keep playing other users' holds(remember though: if you don't want to break your keyboard, don't play larrymurk's or Rheb's holds ;) ) and you'll be a good architect soon. :)
