hi,
that was a very good effort to organize your thoughts-you are brave!now sleep on this and then after some days, you will have a new directon. you have taken the very important first step, of execution, putting the words down. that seems self evident,but it is not. i myself find it difficult to physically put words down on paper.just sitting down and writing is the mark of a professional.
regards,

Hi Rob,
That was great.As they say we can talk forever about writing.That can never make us a good writer.
I also liked your view-Writers are made. So many people say that they can't write. But anyone who has something to say, and says it in a way that the reader can understand, can write. I feel writing is all about communication more than grammer and syntax.
Hi Alexander,
I have rated this story 4.5 in spite of your excellent writing skills for a very personal reason.I normally don't like dark stories. I specially read this because i'm a life sciences student.Te twist at the end was ofcourse frightening.It reinded me of the movie,'Death Becomes Her,'starring Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn.
I think this was great. As a writer, one thing bothers me- to focus on one idea, and sit down to write. i tend to keep looking at ideas without being really productive.
hi,
as a published writer, i rate quotations as a valuable resource. in fact, many a times, a quote has given me an individual viewpoint that then became the focus for a story.
i,ve requested an invitation to participate in this campfire.
if this campfire had requested quotes based on one subject only, i woul have rated it Perfect!
sincerely,
nita
You've taken the first step towards self-realization.For me, an eastern person, raised up on oriental thinking where we believe that it may take as many as a few lifetimes before we know who we are, your actually realizing your need for introspection is the first imp. step. So,twenty-two years is no big deal. Give yourself time, one day you'll see yourself in a flash!
it is funny, true and heart wrenching. i know that eating is one of the most pleasure giving activities for living beings. so, snatching away of that pleasure does rankle.
as a writer, i know how important feedback is.a constructive critic can literally break or make a creative person. but still, does this points biz. really work? someone please help me verify this.

For me,it was perfect. In spite of being a published writer, i'm still nervous about query letters. In fact i've always had a person to person relationship with editors, so haven't really queried. i always avoided writing to publishers who needed one. so i'm glad that i found this important story right away.
