There is another forum down here, you know:
http://horror.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=30

Many of us are crying for attention. if you dont give it to us, we may turn to promiscuity to fill the void.

i occassionally read the fiction posts . . .but as i'm no writer i can't offer much feedback. the only thing i will say, and please don't take offense as i've not even read one of your stories (to my recollection) is that they generally are very unpolished. . . my suggestion, for what its worth, is that the folks who post in the fiction forum should start a writing group. . . one person posts their story, all the others offer feedback for a week; then rotate and read another person's story - - - this would give a chance for more systematic feedback and a chance to revise and even repost the stories

just a thought from a talent-less monkey

That would be a chimp, and therefore an ape, not a monkey.

Any feedback is good, especially from people who are general readers. people who write for other writers usually come up with crap that isnt any fun to read.

And i think unpolished is a good description. if it wasnt a first or second draft, it would probably be getting published somewhere.

Thanks for actually following the link :)
