in all honesty (for whoever actually reads this), i'm not much of a writer. if anything, i consider myself to be an avid reader who wishes she COULD write. but, not all of us are blessed with that certain skill.
you're probably wondering what this is all about, but i have attempted, many times, to write a story/series. sadly, most have not gotten past the beta stages, let alone complete. none have solid or even imagined endings, and most lack a certain amount of 'finesse' to be considered anything more than a random tidbit.
the characters themselves are rather flat or cliche of their respected sorts, and sadly most of the MCs come across Mary Sue. as i'm sure that there are many others like myself out there, i don't want to come across as petty or childish (which i am, most likely... *sigh*) but i'm sure many of my fellow 'wannabe writers' can attest to the frustration of having amazing ideas for a story, or awe-inspiring characters just waiting to be released into a world of paper (or whatever the computerized form of that is).
so, as a wannabe writer, i can't help but be rather self-conscious of my poor attempts at writing, and ask anyone who cares to read this: Should I Post?
if you have read some of my previous postings, you will see that they all consist of ideas, and not actual works of writing. for me, posting some of my (unfinished) works is a rather large step. either these pieces will never be read and remain anonymous, or they will be found and judged accordingly.
so, i dare ask: Yes or No?
