Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Another story

For my Practical Grammar class we had to write 5-page papers, so naturally I wrote a 9-page story instead. Whenever I write down things from my daydream world, the stories always feel really dull to me. However, prof gave me really good feedback, and I got 100%, so it must not have been all bad. It still feels dull to me. Oh well.

Here's where I posted it if anyone's interested:

I'm not surprised at all that you got 100%, (though you should have got 107%, if that were possible)

[p.s.I hope no one minds me near-swearing, by the way. If so, sorry. ]

Comment by Cordellia Amethyste Rose on November 10, 2011 at 8:53pm: I'm too dazed to really invest myself in my writing. I just write when I have to. It comes out pretty easily. If I weren't so dazed, I could actually pay attention to style and craft. Sorry.

Comment by BilboBaggins on November 10, 2011 at 8:46pm: i've been on the run the last few days and haven't had a chance to read this -- definitely want to though! -- on that note: how on earth do you manage to get thoughts on to paper?? (figurtively) I try constantly to write down at least a bit of my daydreams and it never comes out right. any suggestions?
