Also, even though I know you're nice, Amy, some of the things you're posting in this thread CAN hurt people. I know I shouldn't take these things to heart because I'm sure I need to improve plenty of things, and yet I get a feeling of self-dissatisfaction when I read this thread. I feel like the work that I've put into my writing for years hasn't been worth it, because it obviously displeased you enough to open a thread telling everyone how boring their stories are. I'm probably coming off as whiny and a bit full of myself, but that's how I feel.

Totally agree. We are not professionals, and we try to make nice things, and it's really hard for some people, like me, to write in another language. I know I could be a lot better if I was writing in my first language, but well, I'm not.
Anyway... I try my best. And people like my story and the other stories. I think that is what really matters. We are here to have fun, not to win a literature prize.
