*sigh*

and then there are times I wonder why I even bother writing. I just got a review that made me feel so horrible about myself and my ability to write that I'm nearly in tears.

The one thing I've always prided myself on is characterizations. And how I craft a fic. The last thing I wrote... it wasn't intended on being a ground-breaking piece of fiction. Hell, it was mostly crackish if you'd actually read. There were things I didn't want to go into as an author and wanted to create a humourous atmosphere.

Apparently I fail and suck as a writer.

Joy.

And on top of that, I'm getting royally FUCKED with my car. The window "works" but it's not perfect. But if I want it back to how it should work, *I* have to pay the 350 bucks to do it. Yet, it was broken on THEIR watch. And then I had the general manager of the place tell me that even if someone smashed in my window while it was in their possession, it's my responsibility to replace it. I'm just livid -- and now telling me I suck as a writer isn't helping.

Anyone have any alcohol? Please?

awww, honey, i'm sorry! don't let one review make you feel bad about your writing. i KNOW how that can be, but - seriously. you ARE good. just remember that, okay? it's so hard to remember that we can't please everybody 100% of the time, so - i don't know. please yourself! and that person was stupid, i am certain. :D

i'm sorry about the car, though! WAAAH! *HUGS*

*is finally able to look at these/comment* *sucks*

Thanks, love. ♥ It's one of those... it hurts to get such a horrid review, and then on top of that to not get a lot of comments on fics in general. Alas.

*cuddles* I hope things are going well for you, sweetie.
