Critic2 deadline

[paints]

My dear Critic2, I know you are interested in learning so you can stop pretending that you are not. Here, let's review some of your posts on the subject:

"You are wasting such a good opportunity to learn about the rhythm of language and about creative writing. I have no spaces left for full-time students but I would be happy to offer you at least some tips as you post your writing. It will, however, require you to be far less defensive and insecure about your writing."

"...the important matter is that even though you are an extremely dull writer now it is possible for even you to improve"

"it's your apparent inability to deal with criticism of your writing"

"My comments have been actually quite mild and, absent the fragile egos of the writers, could be useful if they wished to improve their ability. "

"It was my mistake to call her on it as she has no interest in learning"

"what is far more needed is guidance for beginners... about the use of rhyming patterns and clichees, the need to take his time and search for inspiration instead of counting the number of poems he can produce"

" My intention was to help George with his writing. The offer is also open to you. Neither of you have any apparent natural talent with words, but I could still substantially improve your performance. It will involve a certain restraint of your ego and a true will to learn.
If you are interested please let me know. In a month or two you could look back on your baby rants and thank me from the bottom."

This is just a sampling of course.

You have graciously offered to help many writers on this forum but, alas, their ego's got in the way. So you can understand how confused I am about your unwillingness to address your own limitations as a writer. I have outlined what I believe to be the major points of concern and though I am currently quite busy I will find the time for you if you will only put aside your own ego for awhile.

Good news. My request not to return to that spit of land where I was working has been approved! I must return for 2 weeks but then will return home and will be able to give you my full attention. This is great as we can then get you to that next level!

Of course, if you truly have no interest in learning, simply say so.
