As Of Now

Thu Jun 29, 2006, 11:20 PM
i am pretty lost. my writing keeps recieving very mixed signals. at one point i get told to keep a line. at another to toss it, it doesnt help. i try romantic and i fail, i try cutter and people tell me im crazy, other wont tell me the truth...

as of now, i am about two steps away from deleting it all and quiting. i love to write, i love it with passion. i love writing poetry, and i love it with even more passion. but i think i am still misunderstood. yes, i know its cliche and all, but in all honesty...i know there are people out there like me. ones that know lifes pains and tortures. that have been to hell and back, with and with out drugs. that have cut themselves with no intention of suicide.

this is the closest i have come to a rant in a long time, and i just really want someone to tell me if i should just stop. today i was told that i must have a messed up mind. that my pyschi was off. what if they were right? what if i am just rambling on about my own problems. i just hope someone would shut me up.

if you know where im coming from, if you have felt this with out being... Emo. i know im not, thats trash, but everyday i write i feel my writing is getting nothing but that rep. if i am wrong or right, please let me know. as i said, im about to more writings from just stopping. im tired of people telling me that im a good writer. i want some insight. is that to much to ask?

if you took the time to read this,please leave a comment. i could use a hand right about now.

You have a lot of talent, James.. In fact it was a mutual friend we have that told me about you.. And I see we both have very similar tastes in writing and styles.. subjects even perhaps.. I love Edgar Allan Poe as well.. I will be watching you for more work as I gradually put up work of my own.. I am a poetic Gemini as well by the way..

well i have read your stuff and i really like it. i think i know who your talkin about. i dunno. but thats your perogative, as long as we cool. i think we can get along pretty well and look forward to reading more from you.

Believe not in revenge, for it is never enough. put trust in vendetta, for it is this that makes the fruit of revenge so sweet.

I was hard on you with my critique. Understand, I write from the perspective of helping you be a better writer.

My advice is worth what you pay for it, nothing. Remember that. Still, if you want to improve, I would suggest that you read more poetry than you write, and keep asking people for critique. You often learn more from those who are hard on you than from those who pat you on the back and never tell you where your weak points are. Also, don't be afraid to try a new type of poetry, write a villanelle, or go free verse, and don't be afraid to not rhyme.
