so i just joined Fiction Press. this being my attempt to actually get some good, honest feedback about some of my writings, be they poetry of fiction.
and lo and behold, due to my newbieness, i cant make any posts. im guessing for verification purposes, or to see if i actually visit the site or some such. maybe its something as simple as needing to wait some set about of time until being able to post any material.
laaammme.
i suppose im just antsy to get feeback on my current piece of fiction. it been in deadlock for a bit, and i've just been needing feeback so i know what is goon in it or needs refining. meh. plus, i have a crapload of poetry that anyone out there can read. not that i havent gotten any feeback on it, but where i currently keep my library of works is at deviantart. now dont ge me wrong, im not dishing DA or anything, but its mostly a site for artists, or at leas thats how i mostly see it. not the best place to get feeback on writing i guess. whatever.
so i have a whole library of my stuff out there with a new audience i can reach, and essentially i have to wait approximately 45 more mins till i can "publish" anything on FictionPress.
yea, im a mite antsy you might say.

show some love
ok som im going to college, and im working towards getting my A+ certification. yay. thats cool and all, but my real passion that has been expanding lately is writing. ive done plently of writing on my own, poetry wise, and coming up with works of fiction that may turn into something. thing isi dont have a degree in english, or any of that broohawhaw.
and im looking around on the great big world wide web, "ok heres a forum for freelance writers. last post earlier this month." i drop a line saying hi. and i repeat the process with several other forums. check in the next day, no new posts. and its the samt thing, with most boards.
okaayyy, what the hell. i mean is nobody these days much of a forum browser? its mostly what im associated with, i make a post about a topic, somebody replies, and then lots of people are in a conversation. is this just not the case for finding out information about writing in general? or is mandatory that you get a college degree first, after having spen your life since you were 5 years old at a keyboard on the net. i mean seriously today's generation is just about hardwired onto the internet.
its so sad, i dont dare call it pathetic, but the fact is that little johnny wants to see his "chiakia pet" grow up. *go to the webite* "chiakia johnny is hungry!" and on and on.
hhmmm, somehow that turned into a rant. well a blog is the place to do it in i suppose. as to the original idea of my post, it was grumblings about why i cant find any active forums for aspiring writers, and it sucks.
