MsRefusenik: Spiritual Echo Three of my favourite writers are Mastery, who writes a brilliant story with such heartfelt compassion for every child he is breathing life into that one could almost believe that he is a reincarnation of each of his characters. he rarely posts that every phrase and every comma is in place and as I have neen following his book I het extremely pissed, and I tell him, that it takes weeks between chapters and postings.

Cheryl (Whither) has just completed a memoir starting from a dirt poor Mexican girl smack in the middle of Mormon country and her seduction or explosion inot her own Cinderella story that went horribly bad.

This site isn't that much different, but the discipline of getting responses, the Spag Queens that will kill you for bad punctuation (and by the way they are right, although I cursed them and decided they were all withered old school teachers who didn't appreciate creativity)Every one of these moments, if you take yourself seriously (and I do mean all parts of your life) will help you define why you want to, need to writ

Hey, I was so disgusted at some of the fowery poetry on site one I won a contest and actually peed myself laughing. But trust me I've posted a lot of mediocrity as well (including the poem) Just a post script to your reply.
