A quick Slamjam postmortem note

So, the creator of one of the OCs I wrote about just about flipped his lid at me because I gave his character a gay shipping story, ruining his message of platonic bromance and emotionally vulnerable heterosexual dudes.

Part 1: Poetry

“But I hate poetry” well that’s because you’re doing it wrong. A poem of the type that we were told to write in this class is just a short, condensed piece of work that shows who you are and what you do as a writer.

Lesson 0: Learn the rules before you break them

I know full well that I'm talking down to a lot of people in this post--my excuse is that writing it out is also a way for me to refresh the lessons in my own mind. Story tags are because I plan to go back and "grade myself" based on my own advice as i write these.

All is right in ponydom

I know, I said I would do a thing, and then I didn't.
I will. I promise. Next post.
But first, I need to share this with you: a friend has informed me that One Terrible Writer has posted all of his stories, previously thought to be lost forever, on fanfiction.net.

Knighty HATES him! Honolulu-area baker reveals how to improve your writing with 3 simple rules!

I’ve seen it a few times, and you probably have too: people will say stuff along the lines of “I bet this person took a community college course in creative writing and now they think they're so great.” It’s a very resonant insult for classists like me. Besides, it’s rooted in fact: the level of literacy needed to pass community college courses in this town is miserably low.

oh for christ's sake · 2:36am Sep 12th, 2012

I was rereading some of my own work and I found all kinds of boneheaded ADD-induced errors in Chapter 4 too--between all the hardcore clop, of course.

When I say ADD-induced

Seriously, people just read right over this shit and didn't complain to me about it at all. Are you serial, bronies?

Also there are a lot of flow issues in chapter 4 anyway. Telly bits, unsexy expository bits, etc. Perhaps I'll fix them while I wait for people to write up reviews on the two shorts that are on their way. Like I said, those of you who came in through Long Live the Queen will be happy with these.

You see that sentence up there? The one that I moved past without finishing, leaving it hanging there as a huge, glaring error? Yeah, like that. That's what I mean by ADD-induced. And NOPONY has mentioned it in the comments or whatever. Come on!
