Bummer!<br /><br />But on a good note, I totally get what you are saying. From time to time instead of just sharing with my writer's group I go ahead and show it to my husband first. With stories, I must admit he is very good at offering advice and sometimes he even says it's good just as it is. But he has no clue about poetry and doesn't get anything I write. So I just don't show him that work anymore. But there have been times where I put my heart into something and it was a flop with my group. SO it goes. I am just glad they give me their honest opinion and I can go from there. But, yeah. It hurts at first.Linda H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01005584805379179415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000518581959626200.post-84469814539714805142011-04-15T16:42:27.061-05:002011-04-15T16:42:27.061-05:00@ Lisa: I'm right there with you.@ Lisa: I'm right there with you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273059558675234923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000518581959626200.post-223681125278232122011-04-15T16:29:26.310-05:002011-04-15T16:29:26.310-05:00Oh, man, no wonder people have been laughing at me...Oh, man, no wonder people have been laughing at me when I tell them how cool Laser Cats is!

A very good lesson here, and one we should keep in mind. Have I taken any risks?

I like the 'wow' reaction, but the 'well,um, it kinda sorta doesn't actually make any sense' reaction - not so much love for that! I avoid proof reading when I blog. I let it flow. But that's only because I appear to have become a poet! And on that note, EJ I'm glad you dig my poetry!<br /><br />Lady A xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000518581959626200.post-20702006437481484302011-04-14T18:23:10.584-05:002011-04-14T18:23:10.584-05:00Meh, I don't get it.

But I agree it is a teaching moment. Figuring out what doesn't work is an important step in the process of getting better.Luanne G.
