It's perfectly natural to be upset about this. What I will tell you though is that this type of blog does you absolutely no good. Looking at this consequentially - there is absolutely no positive outcome. This isn't how you dispute story deletions, and it puts a negative brand on you as a writer.

Almost everyone that's been here for a while has had a story deleted. I personally know what it feels like to write something, step away, return in hopes of some sort of feedback only to discover the content is deleted. No one expects you to love it. No one expects you to graciously express thanks for the hard lesson. When my story was deleted I didn't say anything because I knew it'd been a legit decision. It was a "lost episode" story after those had been blacklisted. I should have checked the list. I didn't.

If you want to write, and if this is the platform you want to showcase your work, you have to pump your brakes and go through the motions. Use the Writer Workshop, ask for reviews, ask questions. I have no formula for turning you into a great writer, but I can show you some tricks to help you be certain that what you do finally post to the main site is the absolute best example of your talent.

But blogs like this are pointless. You make yourself look bad. Writing is a challenging art with a brutally unfair expectation of perfection from lots of people who don't even write themselves. So don't do them any favors by attacking your own reputation first.
