This is one of the things that tilts me the most about your writing.

Ah, yes, do tell us all how you feel as quickly as possible.

Often you will start telling a story then go off on a massive tangent, start ranting about the bible or whatever and then not finish the story.

Is that what he does"? How does that make you feel?

It seems like when you write you dive right in there with a basic idea and then basically make it up as you go along. Maybe you need to make a plan before you start and stick to it.

SCUTER IS THIS TRUE? ARE YOU DIVING RIGHT INTO THINGS AND THEN MAKING IT UP AS YOU GO ALONG?

ANSWER THIS MAN, DON'T YOU CARE HOW HE FEELS??

For sure i am not the best person to be giving feedback as i m not much of a writer as i lack the patience but that is my opinion. If you did decide to write a book about your life it would definately make interesting reading. I would certainly be keen to read it am sure many others would and not just those who know you through the forums.

frankly I am fucking stunned that this was not the work of a teary eyed 8 year old boy writing a letter to santa clause begging for a bb gun and for his brothers not to all die in japan or something...carry on, I suppose...
