Writing is incredibly difficult and everyone who tries their hand at it has their first thousand stories turn out terrible. I have entire libraries of content which I produced that was absolutely worthless. But every time I wrote something I learned something new.
 
You don't become a great writer by being a prodigy. You  become a great writer by just working at it. And if you work at it hard, and long enough, sooner or later you'll wake up one day and look at some of your older stories are way worse than what you're producing now. The trick is just never giving up. Never being content with your current level of quality and always striving for excellence.
 
 
On the subject, I'd like to discuss how best to give constructive feedback in reviews. My personal preference is to start with the good aspects of the story and then go into the flaws. One should never belittle or insult the person for their missteps, but at the same time one should not downplay them. We only learn by having our issues pointed out to us.
 
What do you think?
