So I looked back on some old writing I had from middle school on a website called Storybird.com. I don't know how many other people know about it. But I recently was able to get access to it and saw that I did attempt to write more edgier stories. But lord almighty did I overuse parenthesis (like this where it's not necessary and therefore seems like it's written like a blog instead of a story told in first person), CAPS lock on every FEW words, huge leaps to the climax with little to no character development, a rushed ending, and writing about issues that I didn't understand as a child. Now I feel old just looking back at my old work, but I guess it's nice to cringe at your own work. You know that your work back then was cringey and gross and you acknowledge it, working to bettering your work over time. I am currently running on cinnamon toast crunch and coffee with Irish creamer. |
