Since no one (except one person) seems to care one bit for this story, I saw no reason to keep it here and waste server space.

Just because only one person seemed to care doesn't mean more do, you also have to remember that many people just don't comment on a story.

I admit that I haven't read it personally but in all honesty, deleting the story doesn't allow future readers to see it.

Yeah, and not being a whiny Belgian Waffle Woman just because only one person commented (Oh, poor you!) is usually considered by most cultures to be a 'good' thing. Twisted Evil

Funni isn't it, that people only seem to say something when you're doing something out of the ordinary...

That aside, why should I continue to put my meagre writing skills at your disposal if none of you helps me to improve them?

And Josh... you won't change my mind THAT way...

If that's directed anywhere near me, you're setting yourself up for some Amber Waves of Pain, Buddy. I even taught you how to write a spooge story, for goodness' sake. And I haven't seen you put to use anything I taught ya'. Am I then to assume that you're an ungrateful little waffle boy because you haven't? Twisted Evil

I'm taking time out of writing a Forgotten Realms book to say this, so listen up good. If you want to be a writer, you have to remember that these people are not here for YOU; YOU are here for them. If you're writing just so that other people will comment on it, then its no bloody wonder why almost no one has. A writer isn't just someone who writes; it's someone who loves to write, and anything less is cheating these folks out of their valuable time.

If you simply want to improve your writing, show it to an editor or another writer while or before or even after you post it, but don't expect these folks to climb out of the woodwork and clap their fins together like trained seals just because you throw them a fish.

So post it, delete it, snort it up your nose for all I care; just actually try putting things in perspective and thinking it through before you go about being the forlorn, angsty author. Because I can tell you sure as anything that whining and trying to guilt people into reading and/or commenting just doesn't work Razz

Ah well... *shrugs* Two minor things though:

  1. I'm not a writer, just a mathematician who happens to write a few snippets.
  2. I usually AM on YIM, but playing hide & seek.


For the rest, I abstain from commenting... I have other things on my paws.

About bloody time. Now get back to it! Twisted Evil

everyone has the ability to be a writer, they just don't know it or don't want to do it. Trust me, my own story has been on my website for a few years and I only got maybe three four comments on it. Does that mean I'm going to take it down? No, because someone may come along and enjoy it in the future.

I was reading the story, but I thought that it had not really gone anywhere (yet), so I did not comment (yet).

p.s.
I was on holiday and then I was really busy, so I might have missed any posts after March 15...
