Sometimes I wish for that, but I'm very serious. Even if not all my stuff is good for publishing, I still hoard it. I've enjoyed posting fanfiction and getting instant feedback.

i'm not sure what is confusing. take all your fan fiction writing and just put it all together.

put it together where? This doesn't seem like a logical action to me.

I'm totally the opposite.
I am so terrified of critique/feedback.
I am much better at being an artist than a writer.
which is sad and funny because I have been writing since I was in elementary
and I only recently picked up my drawing last year
and somehow my drawing is now better than my writing o__o

aw. I enjoy sharing both my art and writing. Writing is more important to me so I treasure feedback more though. I've been thinking seriously about both more or less since elementary school.

My thinking is still hazy
even though I have gotten better, I am still not at the place
i want to be with my writing nor my art.

But my art seems to have progressed more in a short period
of time compared to my art which is taking more time.
I guess I am a little stuck on how to get better.

I know descriptions and narrations I very much bomb at.
And I just would like to use better words in my writing.
One day I will hopefully.
But I am much better with art than writing.

both art and writing are something with no formula or path to follow when getting better. Practice and reading is really the most you can do and honestly listen to criticism. And when you're feeling down and like you haven't improved, go find something a couple years old and you'll likely see a change. You can't tell so much when in the process because the process of change is a gradual slope not a step ladder.

For writing, I only see tiny improvements.
other than that, I write the same as I use to.
It also doesn't help I am what you call a logical thinker.
I have to think of things logically and write them out so sometimes my stories
are a little too detailed xD
Like it just drags on and probably bores any readers I have

You've got to recognize your own natural tendencies in writing and cater to them. Because there's no right way to write. If you do what you do well, that's enough. If you're logical and detailed. Makes the details something that makes you want to read. A.S. Byatt does that. I love her style even though it's normally something I would hate going on and on about a description and other such things, but in the end, the descriptions are the best thing about the story.

True enough.
Though I am one of those people who is like never satisfied writing wise.
I know there is no right way to do it.

I would just like to be happy with my writing.
though most of the time I am so embarrassed by it XD

though with my RP skills I am more confident.
And apparently people think I am advanced in that.

you're dead if you're satisfied with your writing.

if you share it more and get good feedback, you'll be more confident. You can obviously be confident like that with rping.

uh okay..

Yes though I hardly ever believe people what they say about
my writing.

I do mean dead figuratively....though literally would be fine too.

Oh don't be like that! Even if people sugarcoat it a little, people won't say anything at all if they don't like it!

It's true. No one is ever satisfied with their own creative work. And it's no use comparing it to someone else cause everyone is so different. If I did that, I'd NEVER do art. Never ever.

and it would be such a shame if Woody stopped doing arty things. 'Cause they're so cool and all.

Thanks! It'd be a shame if anyone stopped doing something they loved to do. Unless it involved harming people...or something.

Hm yes, the same logic does not apply to serial killers.

:D Glad we established this.

Me too. It was a very wonderful conversation.

*wanders through the thread*

don't wander! Make conversation!

your mom makes conversation!

oh does she?

yea you know it!

So how is Linny?
