I have started to write my novel (again) but its very rough, I wana post it for y'all so I don't have to do it all at once, but I know how sometimes you guys can get very... overly helpfull XD
Then you flame my work and I die :P
Should I post it and say in big bold letters "This is my rough draft!" ?

I think you should post it, and be brave! "Flaming" is against the site rules. Constructive criticism, no matter how harsh, is encouraged, and should be helpful to you as a writer. No one expects your writing to be perfect; when people critique it, they're helping you improve. Try to take things objectively, not personally. No one's telling you you're a bad writer or a bad person.

Vee vill shred!

*white light sways overhead*

If you can't take shredding, you'll never get anywhere. Develop a modesty towards the few compliments that you'll get, and a maa'lesh attitude towards the constructive abuse. Then you'll go places. ^_^
