Default Re: OT: Somebody\'s critique of my story

Hehe well Hunpecked that is actually really helpful thanks I mean the only "personal" references to "romance" that I've been able to observe for long periods, in my personal life are guys my age that date 10-12 girls a year because they just want to get laid as fast and often as possible and don't give a damn about the girls they are with and when those girls figure it out they ditch the jerk.
So I didn't want to use that as a reference point obviously, the other true romances I've seen are usually only brief because unlike the above people they don't tend to brag or spout everything and everyone they've been doing that year.

And I actually did mix a wee bit of holywood in to the "romance" which I guess is what helped make it a little cheesy huh? Aw well live and learn and improve as I go.


As far as Tesco goes, I'm sorry I was rude and it was probobly unintentional of you to come across as rude.

Regarding the self analysis, I suppose you are right his hurting my feelings that severely did certainly cause me to analyse my story in a way I had never done before though for the most part it just made me really afraid my writing really did suck.


AT: Thanks that's actually quite helpful and uplifting I tend to be very judgemental about everything I do when it comes to writing or stoytelling.....oddly enough I can lead a class of people in difficult things yet when it comes down to writing what should be a simple thing I tend to analyse and look at it so much I freak out a little heh
