Kid, don't give up.

We've all been there; even the fiercest wolf was once a pup. I've had a fair share of my stories deleted, and now that I look back, I can't really blame the guys; they were right, my stories were bad.

But since then I grew, both as a writer and a person. And so shall you, if you continue to write.

Take an advice from this geezer: read. Read everything you can. Refer to my Suggested Reading if you need material. Go through the stories of Banningk1979 or HumboldtLycanthrope (word of warning, Humby's writings are rather graphical): they are among the top writers on this page and really have way with words. Learn from them, grow, evolve, mutate if need be.

But don't stop. Ever.

Writing isn't like riding a bike: you have to constantly maintain it. Hone it, polish it, sharpen it, grind it.

Yes, I know that having your story deleted is like having a bucket of cold water thrown in your face (bucket included), but I truly admire that you managed to keep your cool and not go on an angry rant about it like so many have and will.

I suggest Writer's Workshop: it is a good place to get some feedback on your stories before you publish them. I stalk that place a lot these days (duties 'n all) so I would most likely be able to help you. And hey, don't be afraid to ask for device from the elders of this page.

I haven't seen any of your writings, but I hope to in the future.

I wish you the best of luck, and may the Seven bless you.
