Don't they just drain you? They drain me, especially on a forum called 'AUTHOR's HANGOUT'.

Here's advice: Get a shrink, pay for one, even.

What do you expect from authors? If we don't write emotions and dilemmas into our stories, they will go nowhere.
 
I love the whole lot of'em and think it's good that people feel so comfortable here that they share everything and run here for advice.

But I don't tihnk any of them own a horse drawn caravan, but I may b wrong there :D
 
Awww...honey...

Don't be all crabby. Try to be a rainbow, not a pain bow!

Have a biiiiiiig hug!

I helped build one, once-- but we never had a horse pull it, it went onto a trailor to take it to the faire sites. That was one of the very first construction jobs i ever had...

Tell me how you feel about that, honey.

You should invite your little friend to group sessions.
I feel..........I feel..........

I have to wait for my next session.

Whatever you think is best, sweetheart.

You're safe here.

You are such a sunbeam! Can I come to your next group session?

Do we get to make S'mores?

Thank you so much!

You are the sweetest, and it'd be entirely a pleasure.

I bet you could run some workshops that would be simply top notch.

That's lovely! I'll make sure to bring snack alternatives for those who are allergic to wheat, chocolate and sugar.

Did you wake up on the wrong side of your slab, Charley love?

:kiss: :kiss: :kiss:
 
If it weren't for sad and depressed people, how would happy people know they were happy. ;) :D
 
Everyone respect Charley's wishes, now.

It seems the name Author's Hangout is insensitive to her needs.

Let's brainstorm.

Clearly Author means one person, and not many. And Hangout...I'm not sure that's getting across what she needs.

Let's all make sure Charley gets what she needs here.

Let's not be insensitive.

Charley's...What?

Maybe we can petition to have it changed.

Charleys... um... limo.

Sandbox, swingset,

No, no, no.

We're all equal architects of Charley's dream. Brainstorming has to be free and easy.

Don't stifle your creativity.

She likes smoking. Charley's Ashtray?

It's something when it's for a story, but not everything is. It's something when it's even about knowing you or your emotions, but sometimes it's just purely about reaching out and touching someone, getting a hug, getting some sympathy / empathy. It's all right if that's what you think should go around on here, but just don't confuse it with being about 'authors'. It's about people, that's all. Nothing writerly about it.
