Thanks (I think) for your critique. However, you should avoid putting extraneous stuff like "I don't want to be reading your story, I want to be publishing mine" into a critique. It makes it look like you're just writing extra to get more karma points. I'd also suggest finding a different social network if you don't want to read anybody else's stories. Critiquing others' works is a big part of Scribophile.

Thank you for taking the time to read through that. I will definitely agree with you that it is insanely raw. I have graduated...sort of. I still haven't finished my thesis...that's a long story. But you nailed it otherwise. I did write that when I was 20. And how did you know that I've been fucking off the math classes for the past 8 years of my life. It's not that I don't understand it, I just hate the way my mind has to work with math. Once again, thanks. =)

yay! thank you for the glowing review of my dead guy story.
i love writing stories that affect people, if only while they're reading, so thanks for making my day, my friend.

ha! thanks for your critique, rs--i laugh, because forty-year old geek chicks aren't supposed to write goth. aren't we a pair.
i'm glad you liked the stories, even if against your will. maybe especially because of it.
you rock!

glad to see you!

yo, compadre!
what're you up to, my friend? you've been quiet lately.

Hello Sammy,

I've made some big changes to the FFF. Check out my recent Forum post for information. I hope you'll join us.

P.S. I recently learned what Dum Spiro Spero means and it made me feel like my critique of that story was pretty" Dum." I'd love to do a new critique if you come back and republish it.

hi, sammy--
i'm digging the 'compadre'.
thanks so much for your critiques on my stories. i love the suggestions (and, of course, the love). you rock the casbah!

oooh, i'd love a nickname!! ( as long as it doesn't have "asshole" in it...)
you're very welcome for the critique, sammy.
hey, does this mean you're back from vacation??
