Congratulations! I hope you make it in.

And don't worry, I'm sure they'll be nice enough.

If only there were a writing workshop around where I live, I wish I had a good place to get constructive criticism.

it's not really a "share your story and get opinions" place, instead it helps with the basics of how to write and how to make a story

they also said that everyone will make a short story/poem/song and combine it with everyone else's into one big story

idk how that'll work tho

lol

Ah, okay. Honestly, that I'm not a fan of. There's no real way to learn how to write. You can get some tips on how to improve your writing style, but each of those is unique to the person, seeing as everybody's voice is different. The best way to learn is to write, then have people critique your work. Then improve from criticism.

Also, how the hell could they possibly make that work? I don't get it.

Well, from what I could find on it, it seems like it could help for some. However I still stand by my conviction that the best way to learn is to write, and write, and write, then write some more, then get some criticism on everything you do. Constructive criticism of course, but from somebody who won't hold back while at the same time won't be mean.

i already showed OT my story

they said it was really good and some said there was a bunch of buildup to nothing or there wasn't enough buildup so i'll work on that

still i am really in need of friends, i want to make memories with people, and i think meeting people with the same interest as me would be a good idea

Yeah man, I'm not saying it's a negative thing. It's definitely positive. I'm just saying that constructive criticism in real life from a group whose purpose is to give constructive criticism is generally better for improvement than learning tips and tricks. The best way to learn said tips and tricks is by having more experienced writers critique you.

Alright, I hope it works out. I wish there was a writers workshop around me. Maybe I could try forming one.
