Because one is often their harshest critic

I didn't want to clutter up a thread with this, or make it look anyomre like attention seeking behavior so I'll just put it here aways off the main path.

So. I wrote a thing for Race yer Mates.

Was it any good? Did it want to make you (want to) vomit? Too funny? Not funny enough? Not funny at all? Not serious enough? Not cohesive enough? Too mean? Not mean enough? Too short? Too long?

I guess I just want some feedback is all. Apologies in advance if this reads like 'No! I must be the center of attention!'

  1. Dude, you got to stop being hard on yourself. You talk about the ego inflation, but you got to have SOME ego, ya know? I know I'm a good writer, not enough to go about bragging or anything, but you are a good writer too, and the sooner you acknowledge it, the more quality material of yours we can see!

    Plus, the commentary was good. I know you'd write good stuff, the only thing I was worried about was preemptive spoilers, but that didn't happen, so we all good!

  2. It was great, Sheep! The dynamic/contrast between the cheerful, pleasant Father Squid and the acidic, hateful Sister Alice worked wonderfully. You had a face commentator and a heel commentator.

    The insults were fine - they're part of Alice's character, and it was obvious you didn't actually mean any of them, especially because they were mostly targeted at cosmetic/minor things like Rainbow Dash being a pony and Gamera not having a movie in a while. And the comment about Sarah's ass being so enormous the camera feed was broadcasting only her rear and nothing else was excellent. If I was a grimdark-er sort, the poor little thing would probably develop an eating disorder if she heard too many more of those kinda comments, but I'm not, so she doesn't.

    And it's your blog, dufe! Blogs are personal and all about the owner of the blog, so feel free to say whatever here. People visit the blog of a user because they want to read about the user!

  3. Honestly, I laughed out loud when I got to the "Greasyhair McPaleass" part about Erebus, so I would say you're doing pretty damn well =D
