More selective about my word listeners.



Backstory

Not sure I want to continue going to this writer's group I attend monthly. Think I'll try to find me another group that shows the love more openly.

And, no, I don't mean an orgie. (see, I can't even spell it)...I'm talking about the feedback. They just sit there and the silence is unnerving to me. They are good listeners, just not good feed-backers.

I put up with silence much of my life. Time to stop and seek something more fulfilling.

Your silence does me harm. Speak(please).
**********
Not you guys, the "real" people in my life. Oh dear, not that you all aren't real....oh....you know what I mean.

Good for you ... and thanks for the giggles with the last couple lines !

There's a used book store around here that has some interesting groups. And music on First Friday !

Loon says,

yup...i try to comment on at least ten postings each day, hope others try same

Dragonflower says,

ARGH! I had this great comment and then my connection got dropped!

MO_Thoughts, I was saying I tend to stick with stuff that doesn't work too long from an old habit. We have lots of options here, I'm going to try more--thanks for the push and support. First Fridays are supposed to be really fun downtown, but I've never gone. I will in March. Next Friday is too soon....I haven't evolved enough yet. Wish I was like Jeannie and I'd blink my way to MO and we could go to the bookstore you speak of.....you make me laugh so I know we'd have fun time.

And Loon, thank you for your comments. I always enjoy them when you make them, either on my memoirs or others.
