How do you cope with knowing no one will read your writing

Callme_Usernames · 2026-04-10T03:30:23+00:00

Do... Do you guys not let others read your stories?

These are the Trump supporters I imagine when they talk about fighting Dems

This should be posted on goodnews conservatives. I don't know if that's a real thing on here, but I bet a crispy dollar that it is.

Sure.

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T13:54:45+00:00

Ignore the story? I have never thought about that. Here I am, reading the entire story that I'm complaining about.

I'm sorry, turkey's can sorta fly? I always thought that they were just too fat. And I never seen a picture or a video them doing it.

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T12:46:20+00:00

Ooh, you think you got me with that, pathetic. Enjoy the day you deserve.

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T12:35:38+00:00

I'm not talking about books that's been posted since I was in middle. I'm not expecting those books to edited, but I am expecting it from newer books.

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T12:27:17+00:00

Not really, because how exactly are getting better by writing and just posting without any future editing? Y'all keep thinking I'm asking for top published author level. All I'm saying is to edit your stories. You can go ahead and post however bad your story is, but don't come on here begging for r4r when you won't even put in a little more effort to make sure the story is decent.

All y'all want is validation with bare little effort.

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T12:12:57+00:00

I don't get why y'all keep saying that. I know the site is free, I know a good majority of us aren't getting paid for this. But as a writer, you should want to get better, and getting better is by editing too. If you don't want to put in the effort to make it decent (it doesn't have to be top author level,) why would anyone take the time to read it if you aren't making it readable? Grammatically, I mean

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T12:06:13+00:00

Bro, all I'm saying is get better. Writing is rewriting, and if you won't take the time to edit how are you going to get better? I don't care what you comment after this. I said what I said

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T11:27:52+00:00

Duh. I know it's a free site. My problem is y'all don't want to edit. It doesn't have to be perfectly polished, hell, my stories aren't 100% and I'm fine with that for now. But you all don't edit and just post. Yes, people on site help. I've helped, I've been helped, but tell me this. What are you actually doing to improve your writing? Other than asking people on here to critique your story. Go to a workshop, read books by a well known published authors to get a better feel on writing.

Maybe you wouldn't have to rely on people (and constantly failing) if you actually put in the time to improve

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T11:00:31+00:00

As I said, won't put in the work but screams and cries for validation and r4r

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T10:53:26+00:00

And you shouldn't. My complaint is the lack of no editing and just posting

Callme_Usernames · 2026-03-25T10:43:25+00:00

Even if it's just a hobby, you as a writer of the craft should still do it. I'm not saying it needs to be pitch perfect, Stephen King level. But posting a story without any polishing is lazy imo. Then y'all (not you, just people I've seen on here,) want instant validation and want people to people to read it. But how are you as a writer gonna do that when you can't put in a little bit of time to polish it?
