I know my stories need work. I know my grammar sucks. I know I should stop using cliche tropes in my works. I know I'm not THAT poetic. I know I'm not the best author. Stop REMINDING ME OF WHAT I ALREADY KNOW.
I write because I love it. It's the only thing I can do great. I accept any help from ANYBODY. But hate comments or comments that are simply trash I REJECT (Bleach.... get it). My most popular book is Angel Of Death. To be honest, I was not that devoted to AOD. I wrote it because I love the idea, then I finish it because I hate unfinished work ( Weird because I have 56 unfinished stories).
I wrote this when I was 13. I do not have a degree in grammar; I lose marks in English because of my grammar.
These comments made me feel discouraged to continue publishing stories. But luckily, I had great feedback about my books. My dream is to be a big-time author and make social issue statements and speak for some that can't. Right now, I'm at the lowest.
To add more, I am a CHRISTIAN. I WILL write controversial Christian books. Not all my stories are Jesus Jesus, but please respect the one that is. If you are of another faith or an atheist and disagreed with my belief, I just chose to read another book.
I am black. Most of my MC is BLACK. Do not tell me not to write about my people. But that does not mean I can't write about other cultures. I do a LOT of research for each of my characters. EVEN their names say something. I'm not Indian, Filipino, Saudi Arabian, but I WANT to add all types of people in my world.
For the love of God, if I make mistakes tell me. If you want me to change something because it's wrong ( Grammar, fake news), tell me. Hating on me just makes me sad; I know many people want original stories with diverse characters with flaws. I want that.
My goal is to:
- Fix my grammar
- Stop using cliche storyline and tropes
-Add more diversity (Gender, sex, religion, background)
Please be patient with me. I have dreams; please don't crush them.
