One could never call that writing crap Heather. That was written with truth and purity and for people who have experienced those emotions, it surely connected with them and for those who have never had to feel that way, maybe a glimpse into another's soul for a minute.
*bravo, bravo*
If you want to talk you know where to find me. {{{gugs}}}
No I've never submitted anything. I'm such a chicken, I'm afraid of criticism. :( But its always easier for me to write my feelings in story form than to just sit and complain about them.
Everyone gets critism I suppose. But what makes the difference is how its phrased. Like what you wrote above? It really does read like a good short story.
I honestly don't know what to say. I mean, I just wrote that because there were no words that I could use to explain how I felt about something other than to express it as if I were telling a story. And I guess if it felt realistic, its because it is something that happened to me just recently and happens alot. I've just never talked about it.
Awww *sobs* That was wonderful! You shouldn't be afraid of criticism. One, you are a great writer and two, publishers are nowhere near as rude as the people from the fanfic site that we had a little tussle with a while back. ;)
Those people were right to judge my writing like they did. I must have submitted the crappiest of my work. It just stuck with me how much it hurt to read all those things, yeh know?
Your writing that you submitted to them might have been "crap", but they had no right to treat you like your writing. You are a human being and deserve better.
Holy ----! That's exactly how it is for me. When I feel like chewed gum, stretched over a piece of road, and ran over 50 times. I can't tell anyone. I won't. I'm supposed to be the "strong, happy one" and I don't want them to see my weakness. I don't want them to have to waste their time worrying if I'm okay or not, so I lie, I say I'm fine. I put on a smile and act like all is right in the world, when it's sooooooo totally and completely the opposite. It doesn't matter what those mean people say about it. I think your writings are beautiful and captivating, and so are you. *hugs*
Are you alright, Heather? I know that sounds horribly glib but you know what I mean. You know you can e-mail me if you ever want to talk, right? *hugs*
