    Hello again! 1) Nope, not too long. On average, it's rather short, actually. But don't let length deter you from posting. If your entire story is rather long, there's actually ...

  • Poetry » Dramatic, General Re: Spider

    Please, no ellipses. They make everything rather plodding and make me feel as if I'm attempting to swim through a river molasses. Rather than directly saying "Ink is my thread/ ...

  • Poetry » Other, General Re: Just Don't

    This doesn't seem like poetry; more like a survey, almost. It's very list-like; I can see where it's going from the first line. The greatest thing about poetry is that ...

  • Short Story » Romantic, General Re: I could talk to you forever
