hey everyone,
forgive me but i hate capital letters.
i just joined up a few days ago, i think. i really enjoy reading everything here, it is nice to find a place with so much passion, knowledge, and talent. i am 21, i go to school in Mankato, MN, and am currently a creative writing major but actually in the process of switching to social work.
i would really like everyone who reads anything i write (and thank you for doing so) to say something, and i would enjoy some fierce, honest feedback, knowing that everyone here knows what they're talking about. i would love for you guys to tear me apart, really. i am trying to become the best writer i can and i need some criticism!
i would love to get as involved here as i can...i write at a slow pace but i would like to post often.
i am trying to change my style from very flowery and wordy like a couple of the things i have posted, with the emphasis on the music rather than the content per se, to a more succinct style and with greater impact.
i am glad to be a part of the circle!
"What is a poet? A poet is an unhappy being whose heart is torn by secret sufferings, but whose lips are so strangely formed that when the sighs and the cries escape them, they sound like beautiful music."
~ Soren Kierkegaard
