    Gold and daylight.

    Thumbs down. Let me tell you something Parrot. This website is not the only place where I can post my writing content. Case in point? WriterX on HubPages All of my same writing; with a better enhanced display of the words using an embedded pictoral background. So. If you...

    Gold and daylight.

    Someone's acting a little high-minded. Can't take a little criticism can't we? Who exactly are you to tell me how to dialouge with someone? I get it. This website is for writing and literature enthusiasts. There's a certain level of respect all members are expected to abide by. On the...

    Gold and daylight.

    I'm guessing that " someone " was as unsuccessful as I will be. Telling me to " move it to the appropriate section " is not a suggestion; parrot. FYI If a handicapped person in a wheelchair asked you for help would you tell them to "park that thing outside where it belongs"?

    Gold and daylight.

    Those are the first three words to chapter 3 of my book "121". It's the first time I've decided to write since I finished chapter one "Old September " and most of chapter two " Save Me From My Comfort Zone " - almost three years ago. I've been on this long hiatus since the fourth page...

    Bank Holiday Madness? weird title for a story. makes me think of the bank scene in the movie " It's a Wonderful Life "

    A grown man.

    think " picturesque " Are you a writer or a realist? Realists write what they see. Writers write. I'll let you figure that one out.

    A grown man.

    more of a thought than a story the one sentence tries to describe three things; -what a grown man is supposed to be ( maturation ) -a beautiful sunny morning -light that goes from the eyeball to the brain

    A grown man.

    There's a little blue in everyone's life. The eye opening; and the sun's wonderful light reaching the cornea, past the tulips and into the brain.

    Being WolfLarsen

    Never drink beer......especially when you're writing in a writing forum. It took me 10,000 days to figure out my own way of writing. Semi-colons are like quibbles.

    Being WolfLarsen

    Semi-Colons are like breath sounds. The title of reply messages don't mean anything. So why would anyone bother? - Unless; They have nothing to say. As for the semi-colon itself; as I say they are like breath sounds on a continuing thought. Unlike commas, you read a line and...

    Being WolfLarsen

    My next poem will be; how to make a parrot burger. To help you out here; let me say this. The first sentence is meant to be convoluted. Like a distilled taste in fine wine; I already know I am as toxic as can be. Distilling is a process, not a liquid that has any kind of flavor. But...

    Being WolfLarsen

    All I know is; if I had a parrot; I'd shoot it with buckshot. You don't like the poem? You could have just said that. But thanks for the response.

    Being WolfLarsen

    Like a distilled taste in fine wine; I already know I am as toxic as can be. I am a complete loser whenever it comes to recognizing women for what they are and who they are. They are an advanced species capable of anything. It would have been almost twelve years ago that I almost became one of...

    Finding Motivation

    I'm negatively motivated to write this critique. You might want to do a better job of introducing yourself to us the reading audience. A. Who are you? B. What is your life story ( in a nutshell )? C. What does writing mean to you? Before you talk about what motivates you to...

    March 1st is where I like to stick my fingers and thumbs.

    no worries peder The way I write my short paragraph(s) stories; I don't want them to be pigeon-holed. At times I have this obsession of hoping readers absorb a story exactly the way I intend it to be read and understood. Other times ( sometimes in the same instance ) I have an opposing...

    March 1st is where I like to stick my fingers and thumbs.

    thanks so few people read and absorb a story exactly the way i want them to.

    March 1st is where I like to stick my fingers and thumbs.

    I'm enjoying the last vestiges of winter; the cold; the peace and the quiet. Unlike summer when it's nice; there's always a strong force of nature crashing down like a fist through a glass table. If you watch and listen to a storm as if were a book; you’d be reading through seven pages of short...

    Senses

    thumbs (sideways) up This story compared to your other titled " conflict " is much better. Much more vivid. A few things I'd change but an overall better read.

    Conflict

    thumbs down not much in the way of "poetry" your story conjures up the movie Office Space for me. what else is new? _________________ Where you describe his 'room'; are you talking about his cubicle or his own personal office? Instead of what seems like a one-way...

    Poem The First

    I agree with everyone else; It's a blatant rip off of Shakespeare. You may have started out dribbling a few lines of this nonsense on your lunch break but I fail to see how you couldn't have looked at the total content and not find it at least somewhat familiar sounding. Yeah, I suppose...
