My Weekly Goals Update for 12/1/14 - 12/5/14

I accomplished the little I setout to do this week. I dropped in on several forums. They were interesting and places I will likely return to when I have the time. Yeah, I will likely get involved in some of those.

I went on to read and review the stories of several writers with the proper etiquette. I never fail to do just that, as I would always wish the same.

That is, that I did not psychoanalyze the stories or poems of writers to find hidden mental disorders in them through their writings as some have done to me.

Ghastly and sickening it is to find people like that here, though I’m never surprised. Not in the slightest.

I hope that there are ways for this site to see a change and make those kinds of people aware that we write stories to entertain, or inform, or instruct, or the like--nothing more and nothing less. That is what writing is all about and those people have forgotten or just don’t care because they are frustrated individuals themselves. I feel sorry for them.

Even, if the story is a biography, there is no place for such a psychoanalysis-session review, which is what they most assuredly need for their own frustrations, self-indulgent, narcissistic, and distasteful ways, etc.

Remember the movie of “Searching for Forrester.”
