About Myself:

I'm still just a student in high school who just wants to get better at writing. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I'm here because I want to get better at writing and I want to see what others think of my pieces.

I discovered a love for writing nonfiction after reading an excerpt from Russell Baker's Growing Up. I mainly write nonfiction, but I also like to try to step out of the box and try different things.

Some of my favorite books include: The Catcher in the Rye, The Importance of Being Earnest, To Kill a Mockingbird, Great Gatsby and Flipped. I would also recommend any writer to read On Writing Well. It sounds like a boring book, but it is quite entertaining and you might learn something.

I am currently taking down some of my stuff for revision, but I'm quite lazy so I might not get around to it for a while. That is also why I have not finished my series. It will come, some time soon.

Title article: Wall of Hate
Date: 2008-07-22 22:10:59

yes, that poem was quite beautiful. a lot of emotion was put into it and it flowed nicely. its a little dark, but still beautiful.

Title article: lost boys of the sudan
Date: 2008-07-22 21:19:43

ive never heard of the lost boys of sudan, but i did enjoy the poem. i thought that it had a nice flow to it and the story was very sad but good.

Title article: All Liquid Diet
Date: 2008-07-22 19:21:23

even without the picture, i kinda saw the ending coming. idk why, it might b because it is really realistic and many girls do view themselves that way. i knew a girl who was skinny but she would never eat anything for lunch because she was afraid of getting fat.

it was a really nicely written story though and i dont think that it needs to be any longer.

Title article: You Can Eat Now
Date: 2008-07-22 17:46:49

ya i didnt really get the ending. im assuming that it was something about the little sister turning over to the dark side. other than that i thought that this story was very good. it was nicely written and quite entertaining.

Title article: 1961
Date: 2008-07-21 21:22:49

i surprising learned about this in religion class this year. we did a ton of studying on the holocast and this was one of the articles that we had to read. did you see the actaul movie of this? its very good. the people are really pressured into doing things that they dont want to, but some have the guts to stand up for what is right. i made me wonder what i would do in that situation

Title article: I Remember
Date: 2008-07-21 21:09:33

wow that was nice. the style was beautiful, it flowed very nicely. the development of the character of the little girl was also very good and the piece itself was quite moving. even though it was quite sad, i loved it

Title article: Fag Ramblings
Date: 2008-07-21 17:13:26

i thought that it was pretty good. i liked how you experimented and used only dialogue, it went well with a humorous piece. a few minor grammar issues but overall it was nicely written. good job

Title article: A View
Date: 2008-07-10 13:47:44

i thought that this poem was really good. i especially liked the first stanza, thats my favorte part of this poem. i think it was something relatable to about putting on a mask to cover up the sorrow and the brokeness.

i also liked the well analogy, i thought that it was interesting to think that the rest of the world looks at it as being on the bottom looking up, while you're on the top looking down.

Title article: Packing It All In
Date: 2008-07-10 11:54:03

definately could relate to this. right now, im procrastinating packing for a ten day trip to new york and im leaving tomorrow. i also could relate to the supermarket thing since i have a summer job as a cashier at a supermarket. keep all the frozen foods together, meat in seperate bags, cleaning stuff together, dont make them too heavy, dont make too many bags. people always say the same stuff.

sorry that that doesnt have anything to do with your story. i thought that it was nicely written and very well put together. the topic was interesting, which was why i clicked on it and it made a great story. idk why anyone hasnt rated this yet and why there is only one other comment, because it was really good.

Title article: Good Morning
Date: 2008-07-10 11:41:19

yes, it was a simple poem but i think that that was part of the niceness about it. it was very cute and i liked the concept of every day holding new adventures. it reminded me of my day yesterday for some reason.
