Conor Colton Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 I'm really nervous on what Nasty's gonna say I always hate waiting for someone's opinion on what I write And I'm sorry if me felling sorry for myself is ruining everyone else's good time Link to comment
Brony-Vas-Normandy Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Steel yourself, Conor, and know that whatever anypony says, they're not trying to put you down. Know that nopony starts perfect, and that we must all work hard to attain even the smallest bit of skill.I used to worry about what people said when I wrote, but now I know they're just trying to help.

Nasty Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 That was rather lovely. The only bad I really found is some I's that need to be capital, or some accidental spaces, simple typos. I almost always make them, the annoyance of messing up one simple key always gets me. Some sentences could be revised, but it doesn't hinder the reading experience. The plot is pretty grand, I rather like it. You used a very nice vocabulary, which added to the humor and description. I hope to see some more All in all, it was great. Link to comment
Conor Colton Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thanks for that Normandy.But it was really hard for me starting out, I tried to go for deviant art but when I told other bronies about my ideas they blocked me, and I wouldn't call that helping of any sort.And when I tried submitting stuff to equestria daily, they shot it down and didn't even send me a reply as to why, which just depressed me even more, and when I tried to get something else proof read here at canterlot, the person who proofed read it was so mean about it, seriously he didn't even make an effort to find a single good thing.Thanks for the sentiment Normandy but people haven't exactly been kind to me when it comes to my writing Link to comment
Sulvuss Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Noedig, Conor. Its getting late here. I'll PM both your reviews tomorrow, but I have a meeting with my father for breakfeast. Sorry, I wanted to get them done tonight but I was handling another review as well. Link to comment

Brony-Vas-Normandy Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Deviantart is a horrible place to start. Everypony there is overcritical.I got my start on a... a furry site.Equestria Daily is also really hard to get onto, I've heard. Link to comment
Conor Colton Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thanks for reading that Nasty, you didn't need to but you did it anyway and for that, I really thank you.I actually started on the second chapter back before I got really demotivated, and I haven't finished it because I figured no one would care if I finished or not, which I guess is why I got myself like this to begin with.I just felt like my work was being ignored, and then I doubted myself and well here I am now I'm really sorry guys, this really isn't the place where I should be discussing this, I really should just stop now.Edit: Thanks Normandy and Sulvuss but it's just hard pushing past those first few rejections when I don't have much experience.

Noedig Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Noedig, Conor. Its getting late here. I'll PM both your reviews tomorrow, but I have a meeting with my father for breakfeast. Sorry, I wanted to get them done tonight but I was handling another review as well.That's okay, I hope you'll have a delicious breakfast with your dad! Link to comment
Nasty Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 No problem. I feel the same way because I posted my story here on the Writing Discussion and got a review from someone. It appears as though I've received a lovely number of views, but, no reviews. So, when's the next chapter?I must depart now, so PM me once you're finished. I love being politely pushy.

Conor Colton Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 I don't know when the next chapter is gonna be, I still have a lot on my plate Nasty, so don't expect too much.(I always screw up when people expect too much ) Link to comment
