I’m not a good writer.
At least, that’s what I’ve been told. Just now.
Apparently, my writing lacks voice. It lacks style. It lacks a certain “something.” I know it’s not really in good taste to criticize a criticism, but these little digs really get to me sometimes. It doesn’t matter who is saying it, or how they say it; it’s just that once in a while, I take a comment very personally.
I feel like my writing definitely has a “voice.” The person who made this particular criticism disagreed, and said I should write “like I talk”, because that’s how you “make it good.” Although I don’t know what that means, exactly, every idea deserves a fair shake. I should really give it a shot.
Let’s do it.
Ahem.
Sup? Man I was online earlier and this girl gets online, right? I barely even know her, I met her at work, and she’s like, she saw this post I made on a forum where I posted one of my blog entries, and she replied to it with some shit like, she said OH MY GOD THAT IS SO SHITTY or something, and so I messaged her like, what? Why is it so shitty? It’s not shitty! And she is like, oh god, she’s like I CAN WRITE ABOUT CAKE BATTER BETTER THAN YOU CAN WRITE ABOUT ANYTHING. So I got pissed right? I took it personally, so I like, I went and found some other thing I had written, just some fluff about being in line at Carl’s Jr., and I sent her that, and she has the NERVE to be like, you really need to pick better topics to write about, you suck so bad. WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SHIT?! WHO SAYS THAT TO PEOPLE?!? I GOT SO PISSED OFF! I ended up like, blocking her or some shit, seriously I was so pissed off like, argh. Damnit.
…
Oh my god, she’s right.

You really ought to quit letting people get under your skin like that
Yeah everyone is a critic.. Just because someone doesn’t like your writing, that means there is someone else out there that does. Just let it brush off.
