Ok, Where Did I Miss It With This Chapter?

[windstormy]

I don't understand. I felt this was a work of art. My score is so low, it hurts. What did I miss? Where did I go wrong in this chapter? Someone help me out here, cause I'm at a total loss here.

I spent long hours trying to perfect Mr. Bowman's character and make him as real as I could. I wanted him to be salacious, mesmerising, tempting even. And I thought I had achieved that. I strove to make the fight scene as if the reader was actually there watching it. All the conflict was escallated to this one point and this one chapter. So, what's wrong with it people. Please tell me, I must know.

Bigrig Ch. 17

It is a work of art! Never doubt that or your abilities.

People who have had their art misunderstood and taken to task in some way, shape or form (yes I like this phrase!):

Michelangelo
Doesteyevsky
Nietzsche
DH Lawrence
Robert Mapplethorpe
ee cummings (one of my faves)
Solzinetizyn (sp?)
Dan Brown (The DaVinci Code)
DaVinci
Picasso

To name but a few... and they are all considered tremendous artists in this day and age in their own rights. Okay, trying not to go overboard here, but people have been misunderstood throughout the ages. Is your work a talking point? The answer is yes! An unqualified yes! Even for those who choose not to understand or agree with it. That is the sign of greatness....

So, if this is true, then you have a gift to share with all of us. Please keep sharing! I know I will be reading.... Marie

Okay... I get your point. I do have a very different style and approach. And it can be very misunderstood. All I want is to help others going through what I've already been through. I survived and am surviving daily. Sometimes it hurts so bad, I feel I just can't go on. But then, I have so much to hold onto. My friends, for one. And my writings, two. But if I give up, I will loose everything. And I can't see others giving up either. If I can do it, so can they.

With you, Craig and the gang, do I really have any choice? lol.

If anyone be interested she is referring to a poem I wrote in my LiveJournal. If you would like to read it and all my poems, click on the link below. "WindStormy's Lair". Please feel free to leave a comment before you leave the Journal. There is a place at the bottom of each poem where you can click it and type your message in the box provided. I would love to hear from you when you visit. Some of the poems are dark, dealing with emotions about my father. But don't let that scare you away.

Yes, I saw that this morning. Patience is indeed a virtue. lol. And I'm so elated that it's holding its own. I'm now satisfied that I put forth my best in it.
