Carlos' girl:
Nor84 im here to express an apology if I offended you. I too like fanstory and appreciate the people I have met and the opportunity to write. I have only been here since July 2020 so I have not as many years as you to form those connections but I hope we can become friends

Carlos' girl:
Im so sorry. But it works both ways. If people are hellbent in correcting grammar etc then they should be able to take criticism. In real life this shit wouldnt fly

Carlos' girl:
You are taking this so personally. Im saying without a doubt i have seen work by high ranking writers with glaring grammatical errors no less. Its actually comical. This is not the vast majority but it is some. They get up in arms if you dare correct them. Its absurd

| nor84: Sure, I take it personally. I'm one of those contest winners who has won on more than one occasion and worked darned hard to do it. I care about this site. I've made friends here and I've learned from other people. If a writer gets 'up in arms,' report them to Tom or ignore them. This is not a vanity site, nor is there general corruption. Voters choose what they want to choose, and some don't choose based on spelling, grammar or punctuation. Nobody can help how they choose, but the winner is THEIR decision.

Carlos' girl:
Why do the same people win contests with rare exception? And why do.the same people win contests. And why do the same people get 50+ reviews? Lol is this corruption or what?

| giraffmang: Or are they amongst the best writers on the site, producing quality work?

| nor84: We have all types here: published writers, editors, and very talented, that's why. Also they have fans and most promote their work. That's another reason.

| Carlos' girl: Ive discovered alot of very talented writers here who are not receiving recognition and are actually surpassing the highly ranked writers. Their work is better by a long shot then many high ranking writers . word.

| nor84: And who decides what's better? You or those who vote for these contest entries, i.e., the general Membership. As I said before, talented writers win more contests. And how do you become talented? You learn your craft through study and decades of practice. Some of us have been writing more than 50 years and we're darned serious about it. We are proud when the voters decide we should win. We worked to earn it. In addition to craft, a writer needs a vivid imagination and a sense of drama. Some have those things, some don't. They can't be learned.
