It's not weird. Everybody loves to critique other's work. And my "Word" doesn't even have that option (the corrective one). and what is a draft? i'm sorry i just don't know every word in English, considering i am not from USA nor any other country with this language.

It's a rough copy of what you've written that may need editing. It's just to see what can be changed or improved. I edit my own stuff, but it's probably best to get another's opinion.
(ok really going to stop heckling you now )

All my stories aren't written on my computer (I find it difficult to re-read things on here sometimes).I've got the overall ideas sussed out & I'm editing my first draft because parts didn't fit in properly.
& Xxbloody_thoughtsxX, thoughts written on Word sounds like a good idea for when you've got too much on your mind. Kind of like a diary I suppose.

No, it wouldn't be a diary because i don't write it everyday, just when i feel really bad like last night and other times. It's just since i want to let things out and no one listens.. then i have to write it down.

Well you don't have to write in a diary everyday. But what I meant was that by putting your own thoughts, you make it more personal, like a diary.

Well, you've got a long time to decide what you're going to end up writing. If ever you want to decide!

I started off in my teens writing poems and short stories. Then I tried novels. Then short film scripts. Then short plays. And children's stories. Then full length plays. Now, *many* years later, I split my time between film and plays.

And I'm learning all the time. It can sometimes be painful and embarrassing, but it seems to go hand in hand with doing it in the first place (I kick myself when I get things wrong!). A bit of a trade off...

well i write poems since i was 6 at least i used to think i wrote poems. i used to write songs, then i changed to short stories. now i'm working in a really long story. Besides i always write stories for the festivals in my school. But now i don't know what i will do. And about the learning part yes, we always learn new things.
