Hello fellow dreamers,

I say dreamers because that's what writers are. Dreamers. We dream up our work and we pour it onto paper to make it more real. It's how we work, it's how we are designed from day one. I'm here because unlike some writers, I want to be told what is wrong with my work, what doesn't make sense and how I can make it infinitely better than the draft I thought was the final one. Criticism is the one thing that has given us all of the amazing work that has shaped our minds and lives. JK Rowling was turned down hundreds of times before she was excepted and even after that her manuscript was bleeding so much it looked like it was attacked by downtown gangsters who love to play with knives. I hope to get the most out of my peers on this website. So help me out? I'll be sure to mantion you in my Nobel Prize award speech. ;)
Live with no regrets and full of passion.

I beg to differ. I have a personal philosophy that all people can be categorized, like a punnett square, by two different personality questions: Optimist or Pessimist? Dreamer or Realist? There are some exceptions, like the dreamer-doers, but those kind of people end up being very rare, so they're not even worth mentioning.
So, with this in mind, hello dreamer. I am Caitlyn, and I am an optimistic realist.
oscar wilde.. that is all.

I don't even want to address what I saw that was wrong with your opening because I'm a mean person when it comes to that but anyways welcome to our club. Just remember this is a tough occupation to make a living off of. Make a back up plan and stick to your dreams. We love dreaming too and here is where the dream starts
I want a Harry Potter reboot with Benedict Cumberbatch as all the characters~~Mem
