So, we went to the movies last night...

to see "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer."

Understand that Michael Medved gave it two stars and only gave it that many because of the special effects. He said it was a real stinkeroo. But I expected it to be kind of stupid and cheesy, but nevertheless fun. Awesome special effects, lame but funny dialogue, some nice character moments...

And it was.

( Right up until the end. (Spoilers, obviously.) )

I was reading a post from scalzifeed on Ten Things Teenage Writers Should Know About Writing, and one of the comments begged to be iconed.

So I did:



This should be tattooed on the backs of the hands of every aspiring teenage writer, so they'll see it and be reminded of it everytime they sit down at the keyboard.

Some of the comments from these so-called teenage writers were headdesk-worthy:

LOL! Bey, no offense but, do you have anything better 2 do?? HAHA, what makes you think most teenagers these days think like how you thought back then? I'm 13... I'm not trying to be in ya face or nuttin but...... maybe your writings sucked but mine don't atleast.... not like that... But I do already some of the points you wrote...... but 1 thing I'll never do is say my work sucks. I've been in many competitions.... Poetry, writing, you name it. I first didn't place 1st or 2nd.... but they sent me money because it was good... I was in a catagory from 14 to 18. I'M 13! LOL. Now.... I'm doin fine..... I have experience... I'm not a loser LOL!!!!!!!! But... Please dude. Ppl who rite from the heart will neva eva say there work sucks. Now.... I don't know it all but lets say I just disagree with 1 point?

Um...WHAT? Coherence is your friend, and ellipsis abuse isn't.

i dont belive that my writing sucks it only sucks if ubelive it does im going to be the next jk rowling man u need to watch the secret good luck!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, good luck with that.

Quite frankly i think your advice was useless. 'your writing sucks' yeah that's something encouraging to say to aspiring young writers who are actually taking there time on a quest to improve there writing further. 'hey our writing sucks lets all go out and do something that we are good at like playing on playstation. yeah that's fulfilling, because we all suck at writing!'

Read the entire article, moron. The very next point after "Right now, your writing sucks" is "It's okay that your writing sucks right now."

Dude, im a teenager and my writting is advanced than any teenager as I write with the expertise of an adult writer. In other words im one of the few who are good.

Not by this writing sample, you're not.

In fairness, most of the teenagers who commented actually thanked John for the article and the advice. This actually gave me hope for the youth of America.

Also, I really need to pick up "Eragon" and see for myself if it sucks or not. *eyes "to read" stack* Um. Later.

And this entry turned out way longer than I thought it would. Really, I should be writing myownself...
