^lovetodeviate:iconlovetodeviate: reports, August 30

"Letters presuppose a sort of authenticity, and I truly believe that a story—no matter the form—needs to be authentic and believable.

"Sometimes I wish I had stories such as "I wrote my first published poem at three and a half!" or "I started writing stories at two!", but writing never came easy for me and is still not very easy for me.

They're also indicative of weak writing ... but why? This article covers why adverbs are evil and what you can do to avoid using them.

We've had literally hundreds of submissions this month, so we probably just couldn't fit it in this time.
You can always submit again - and remember, you can send four pieces at a time... and the more you send, the better your chances are of being included. x
