Borrowed Lines

Posted by Harley on Saturday November 18, @01:07PM

I started writing this on a notepad coz i thought i was all style and no substance.

But i still can not help checking the capitals and the spellings. I badly want to become a writer and write beautifully, to be able to express myself and not just be a formatting expert. But that is exactlly what i am doing here trying to cut, paste and format a conversation i had with her. i thought u needed clarity of thought and simplicity which does not exist in me. Generally when i write it comes out confused and arbit. But she told me confused ought to sound awesome and i should try writing complete sentences only and let my imagination run wild. And don't put dots in the middle. She asked me not to use my three dots and instead use full sentences. Besides writing full sentences doesn't mean u're not genuine. Dots just indicate that u're thinking on-line and that perhaps u've lost the thread of thought. Pauses in thought were meant to be provided by commas and full stops. It doesn't make very good reading. Just for kicks why don't u write and post something on live2read. She said that it's imperative that u write about life around you. People are more likely to believe u then.

Well i have finished one paragraph and i think it is a good start. Though I have a feeling she would not like what i have written. But I have written about life around me - the conversation with her and i have not been sarcistic at all. Ok so they are borrowed lines and not original but the structure is mine. Maybe it is all style and no substance but it is still me. Three dots
