I have to walk half an hour to get home... STAYIN' IN SHAPE!

understand that in my district we can't have people walk alongside a four lane highway a mile or so from school in a big long line.

plus the rain, and the sun, and the snow, and the bad drivers, and the people who can't walk.

I don't like writing too simply. It just bugs me that theres a majority of books listed as ten year olds but more like eight year old writing.

Perfectionism, otherwise known as must be perfect all the time syndrome, comes from my mother and my strive to have everything just the way its supposed to be... in my mind.

Is it bad they're offering this course because you could become criminally minded and go and kill the teachers and nobody could teach gun safety and handling anymore?

In my opinion it is better to be too shallow then to be too descriptive at first. That way the reader can implement his own imagination in it instead of it being completely thought out.

Its been my Achilles heel, I'm naturally an overconcious and overthought person and that reflects over to my writing which tends to blossom into an elaborate enigma which most people would not get any sustanence of a story from.

On top of that, I'm a perfectionist. Whatever isn't right won't be right till its fixed, and I have to hit the bullseye almost immediately or I'm unsatisfied.

But yeah, I see where you're going with being too shallow at first and then later beckoning over the deeper details. Its probably the surrealism of The Book Thief by Mark Zusack getting to me, it seems to be a good head off; but I must be aiming a bit high.

It feels like you're trying too hard, almost to get our attention with your descriptive writing.

It has the odd presence of feeling that you are arduously working at too far of a level to get the common people's attentive views into your piece of such description.

I have such a hard time being simplistic and not being too simplistic that its just a shallow story or vice versa that I'm trying a bit too hard to accomplish what I want to. That perfect balance I haven't found out, which is giving me a hard time...

I ride a bus to and from school. The basic gist of my bus ride is I sit by the window side of the seat, and its hot in the afternoon and colder in the morning.

The seventh graders stand up in their seats, begging to be thrown off their feet. I feel happy they will get hurt, its a learning experience.

I don't understand what you're trying to say here anymore. Are you...saying that we're simply not on your level of reading comprehension..? I don't get what you're trying to say at all.

well, I kinda just combined a slurry of thoughts and built it up into a cohesive sentance to try and get something out.

but basically the two ideas was that this is one of my more succesful topics

and responding to your suggestion by listing some of what i've read in the past months/years

What would you do if you suddenly found yourself in another timeline of America where America was founded by Asians instead of Europeans?

Being a writer, I'm reading a bit more higher level stuff than I'm supposed to, which is good.

Books like The Book Thief, House of the Scorpion, The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Inheritance Series, Enders Game, a plethora more; but I feel I need more classics like the Rats of Nimh or Where The Red Fern Grows.

Glad that something of mine hasn't got a ninety percent negative over the ten percent positive.

Its the tired age old problem between a storyteller and a writer.

Its one thing to write a story, another to actually tell it.
