You have some wonderful alliterative elements, sprinkled with rhyme and lovely imagery. This was an interesting and enjoyable piece to read. I'm not sure why you have it categorized as a script when it feels to be more of an essay-type piece. Anyway, you drew me in with your dramatic flare.

This seems like a bit of run of thoughts put to screen, all about a person who will write what comes to mind and not be forced into a defined pattern. Is this art? Some would say yes. Interesting.

I loved the thoughts and feelings you put into this very creative piece. Everything you wrote is so true. I always feel that my best work is when I can feel it moving inside me. When I read other work it has to move me and then it feels so real. How powerful words are. As a child I would read and read so I could escape the real world and go into a world I loved. As I grew older it was the classics, words from writers around the world. Now I just love reading anything. Words are so powerful and can convey all the senses as well as taking readers into another world. The magic of writing never ceases to amaze me. This was brilliant. A very well deserved six. Genya

I really enjoyed the scattered embedded rhyming in this offer, for starters. It was a great way to capture my attention (hear the music in it) and read on. Many salient points that I can agree with personally. Substance and nuances will always take top priority in my writes (past a very basic adherence to spelling, grammar, and punctuation for clarity and flow in my stories) because it's the emotions of readers I'm trying to reach before anything else, to get them involved; loved the reference to, for that point exactly, the reader sitting next to the writer. Never have been a traditional formula writer and doubt I ever will be. Excellent thoughts. JJ

Reading one's work aloud is an important step in self-editing. It especially makes sense if you're a writer who hears the music of the piece and not just the information. Well done. :) nancy

I enjoyed this well thought out narrative that seeks out deeper workings of, not only his own mind, and inspiration, but also the meandering thoughts and musing of others, I love how the other peoples minds work, knowing full well I can't not necessarily follow in their imaginative footsteps, but I can but try! I couldn't help myself, I started to muse with you! But that's the way a writer's mind works, it seems! I enjoyed this eloquent. Articulate walk with you, blessings, Roy.

You have said a lot a valid things in this piece but the one thing that stood out to me is your second to last paragraph. I'm not too big on form because I hear that all the time. I thing is the message or substance as you put it. I let my pieces out however they flow out of my heart and that's what makes me happy as a writer but if I can touch someone in a positive way, I'm more happy and giving God all the glory.

Love this!!! "words are the music of the writer"- yes! "words carry the emotions that make a person, laugh, or cry, or be happy..." -so true! And I too am less concerned with punctuation. Great work!

Hello! You are very passionate about writing and portray that well. I appreciate your use of imagery and your positivity. It is plain that you dislike "form" in poetry, but I think you might benefit from structuring your work differently. As a reader, your line becomes hard to follow when your only infrastructure is the comma. Your voice is very clear but you lack the focus to really make a solid piece; even a little wandering can make a poem lose some of it's impact. Experiment a bit and it will make you a better writer. Good job and keep it up!
