Stick to poems. Youre too descriptive in your short stories and your diction is quite unsophisicated. When a piece of writing is too descriptive, the story tends to go off-topic and the readers lose track of everything. Its like pulling a red herring all the time.

:-) Maggie devlin replies: "Yes, hmmm. I find myself doing that a lot actually, I try to describe a scene so thoroughly I start tripping up. I think my particular problem with these stories is that I wasn't familiar enough with my characters and their situations, so the use of elaborate descriptions and bucket loads of hyperbole was a bit of an over compensation. As for the poem, it's been yanked cos apparently there wasn't enough fairy dust. Och well."

Hi. While I might agree you may lean towards excessive description in your story - I wouldn't say you should stick to poems 2 I have sometimes UNDER developed a scene which is worse I think. Anyhoo - something that helped me is to write the chapter, save it, then go off and do something else for a couple of days. Then I'll come back and read it and decide if the flow is true. If you recognize the "problem" (which is a GOOD thing) then you just need a technique for clearing it up. You are a gifted writer, and I will be coming back to watch for your FREQUENT updates (hint, hint). 2

-poke- Maggie Maggie Maggie Maggie.
I haven't talked to you in a looong time. ;-;

I hope this isn't an abandoned account. You're to good a writer to stop now (and that's not flattery). I will curse forever if I never hear the rest of Chris' story. Please, please go to my page and let me know when you write more. I will be in your debt.

And another thing, that's a bio that says the writer isn't egotistical. Let's see some pompous arrogance, I've got some to spare if you need something. Your writing is bold, so write a bold bio.

With thanks, encouragement, and admiration - E.
