| To the many "kings" I came across in life so far, yet who sadly did not live to see me a better person. and to you who still have someone around to thank and learn from. "Tell me a story, father"  |
| another random memory from school: During our third year of studying philosophy, almost the entire class was discouraged. we just knew that it's that one session of the week that was totally useless as was proven by our grades (our grades in Philo in the two years before were so low they would give ants a superiority complex). so the teacher decided to go in depth a little to help us change things that year. long story short: he ended up switching schools because of us. in the last lesson he said his goodbye while adding in the end:" forget philosophy you guys are making me question my sanity". now i say "random" memory but not really since I came across one my corrected philo exam papers in which that same teacher wrote "it's KANT not KUNT!" |
| does this site have any built-in measures against writings produced by AI? if not then please recommend me any tool for that purpose because there is a lot that i have to check. and thank you in advance. |
| That's a question for The StoryMaster or a moderator. |
Reply| I got here to answer my own silly question: "why share writing?". and by time i thought i was on to a satisfying answer yet now it feels like i'm back to square one. and given how this feels like one of those questions in which the answer depends on who asks it feels like i'm on an endless loop of : write, get a little exited, feel lost again, repeat. this feels like burnout, i guess? i don't know its just annoying to not answer the stuff i ask myself especially this one. am i making sense or is this just a casual rambling XD? |
| Okay this might sound weird to ask but...what is the standard "form" for a poem in english? i'm not english nor did i have education on english writing. but lately i'm reading poems here that barely have any rythm or something so i'm confused. how do you know that what you're reading is a poem? |
| Have you read any of the weekly newsletters? The poetry ones go into details about structure, form, subject, etc. They're quite helpful. Personally, I have a hard time remembering to indent some lines for variety. When I transferred this morning's poem here, I actually included > to tell me where to add {indent}. Otherwise, a poem Which I write In free verse, like so Looks mostly like this There's no real rhyme or reason Only instinct For me, anyway.  |
| Poetry is an interesting beast. I have taught people to write poetry and sometimes I don't understand what is or isn't poetry. Nowadays, it is considered that poetry is a genre of emotion, but when you look at bush poetry, it is rhyme and meter used to tell a story in a semi-musical manner. So, I guess, poetry can be whatever you want it to be in English. I have been told my rhyming poetry is not poetry here at WdC, so be aware there are some gate-keepers here, but if you want to write poems that have rhythm, rhyme, consistency, etc., then go for it. It is your work. Don't compare yourself to others; do what you think works for you. |
| I remember someone here asked what we would complain about with a poem. and oh boy I do have a small complaint so here it goes: "Are you looking for a job? dreaming to make the money?" "Well then don't worry we got you! with a very simple advice sonny" "You can crawl in the mud, sleep on needles, or even go hug a bear after rubbing yourself with honey" "Do it all and never give in!" "But be careful! and do not try the labyrinth called: LinkedIn" |
| Do you sometimes ask yourself: " why/ how did I write this?" be it in the good or bad sense? or do you 100% understand where your writings are coming from? |
dogpack saving 4premium+  - sometimes after finishing and reading again it feels like a completely different person was writing, it almost creeps me out. |
| When I go back and read some of my early stuff, it seems to read better than some of my more current. I've often wondered if writings ripen with age or if age makes witings seem riper. Also, it doesn't help when someone points out in a review some deep meaning that I had no idea I'd written. Who or what had me put that in there and never told me? |
| My autobiographical stuff has been frank, to say the least. I've surprised myself at just how uninhibited I've been. Whether that's good or bad is another matter, but it's all out there now. Some of my fiction can be a bit on the dark side, and I've deleted one or two more extreme efforts (mainly for bad execution). There was one spectacularly twisted effort from the end of last year - a stream-of-consciouness contest entry that ended up not being submitted. As they'd say on Sesame Street, this vignette was brought to you by the letters W, T and F. I have no idea where that doozy came from, but it's still on my port.  |
| 2nd chapter of Memories by colours: Green of a new chance is here. i'd appreciate reviews on it and the previous one (given how they are related). thank you in advance, and enjoy reading. "Memories by colours(2)" |
| ever get that moment when you're like :"alright i'll write about adventure...wait now i feel like writing something cool...on second thought perhaps i should try the love stuff?...but that can be depressive now you know" only to end up writing a weird combination of lines that supposedly talks about all of those? yeah i just did that only to delete it and write about something else entirely...i need to clear my thoughts for real sometimes lol |
| Greetings. if you have the eyes and patience to check a seemingly long chapter, then try this one. "Memories by colours(1):Blue of hope" . i want you to dissect this, no mercy! im dying to see how this goes lol. thanks in advance. P.S: kinda got tired of checking spelling so that's a given problem i guess |
| Notice: a reminder to anyone who reviewed/ submitted something i wrote on March (which is everything on my portfolio now) that tomorrow i'll be deleting them(or some of them) to make space for new ones. in case you want to read them again either download them yourself or tell me and i'll send them. i'll put a list of them tomorrow on my bio. thank you for reading. P.S: i don't take blame in case you submitted something today as a last entry to a march contest or something. |
| despite being already 8 months on my "vacation", i still freak out sometimes when i wake up and see its 11 AM thinking "damn did i really just miss a whole day in university?" only to return to reality and add :"oh right i'm done with that too, sheesh i woke up early for nothing"...it got to the point where i changed my phone background to a sunny island just to remember. goes to show the level of trauma univ provided XD (i'll admit it had its fun though) |
| when i review it feels like i'm a retired veteran, but when i'm the reviewee it feels like i'm in in 6th grade.....i guess that's a positive? i mean who wouldn't wanna feel younger again. though i definitely don't wanna go back to 6th grade again XD |
