What are you saying about yourself in your writing? - Comments

  • Your craziness makes your stories amazingly fantastical so, don't change. :)
    To my self, I get the feeling that my stories are a way for me to control things. But it ends up getting a mind of it's own so I get frustrated a lot. I also love to be clever so I get a kick out of clever dialogues, titles (Where Truth Lies), chapter titles, etc.
    I'm more for poetry though. I have a poem for a lot of significant events in my life or things I've seen happen. I won't off myself like Sylvia, don't worry ;]

  • I think my writing communicates a few different things.
    I think there is a rather obvious obsession in the death of childhood, and corrupted innocence.
    I think it says that I am cynical, and that I'm sad, and there is a lot of nihilism, and fatalism, but also a strange contentment.
    There's also a strong battle between creation and distruction.

    I'm a mess, I think my writing reflects that pretty well.

  • To be honest, I write so I won't hurt myself. In the writing itself, you can see what I feel and how I think. I write horror because I feel comfortable with it, and it's got a lot to do with letting out my feelings.

    But right now, I'm blocked. I can't write. It's a shitty feeling.

  • I use writing as an outlet for my crazy imagination - if I really let my imagination run wild, then I'd have close to 1000 stories - and for therapeutic purposes. I find it really, really relaxing and it just helps me vent my emotions in a positive way.

  • I've never really thought it. I guess looking back on my stories my writing expresses my beliefs in some way. I don't believe in love, I don't like to express that feeling though I'm obsessed with the idea of an ideal love so most of my stories are romances that have a character that opposes the idea of true love.

  • I think you are completely right. In my Stories i like to put out wrong beliefs created by media and pop culture, like the fact that you have to be beautiful to be happy or have you-know-what with your boyfriend/girlfriend to be happy. i have a pretty good home dinamic so i have no idea why i right about abuse, maybe i just like putting as much things against my main character as i can.
