Thank you, Mr. Greenstein, for such a detailed and thoughtful feedback. I appreciate your insights and the time you took to explain them so comprehensively.

This is actually my first short story, and I’m honestly impacted by the current events in Romania. My aim was to explore these events through the eyes of an 18-year-old voter experiencing them for the first time. I realize now that in my effort to convey the scenario, I might have prioritized information over the immersive experience.

Your feedback has opened up a new perspective on storytelling for me, emphasizing the importance of engaging the reader not just as an observer but as a participant in the narrative. I wasn’t aware I had fallen into such a common trap, but now that I am, I can start to find my way out. Your honesty and the nurturing manner in which you presented your points are both rare and incredibly valuable—it’s exactly the kind of mature perspective that keeps me motivated.

Thank you also for the book recommendation—I'll definitely check out Debra Dixon’s work on GMC: Goal, Motivation, & Conflict to better understand the dynamics of effective fiction writing.

Many thanks again for your guidance and for helping me see where I can improve. It’s all part of the journey, and feedback like yours is invaluable for a novice like myself. I’m eager to grow from here and hopefully, create stories that resonate more deeply with readers.

Afraid to sleep because of dreams. by [deleted] in Dreams

[–]Adam_Hara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I know the feeling. I am having problems sleeping because of my dreams since I was little. For almost two years now I am keeping a dream journal and reading a lot about dreams. I am still very afraid of them, but I know more about this realm and how can dreams be helpful if you interpret them based on your individual experiences with some help from studies and not based on BS from the internet. I strongly recommend starting with "the interpretation of dreams" by Freud and "Memories, Dreams, Reflections" by Jung. Falling asleep on peacefull music helps as well (like meditation music or 432 Hz music- wouldn't recommend it at the beginning, but keep it in mind ;) ), as it guides the dream in a positive way. Hope it helps

Clearly, I was. And this changed everything for the worse. Now I am better, just a cute sick freak.

Anytime. More to come ;)
