Sometimes my sixes aren't quite right.



Backstory

There is a magical quality for me in writing my sixes. I will just be doing routine day-to-day stuff, and one will come to me. I post it and it seems OK, what I wanted to say. But then, after I see it in print form, on this site, I change my mind...something about it nags at me and I am unsatisfied. So thank goodness for the delete story button!

JAD says,

Same thing with me DE remember when I wrote that I've deleted hundreds of mine, same reasoning.

Dragonflower says,

Nice to hear I'm not the only one, JAD! Words are so important to me, and we are on the world wide web, so I really try to listen to my inner muse when she's not happy about something!

JAD says,

And that's a good thing that litte muse is very smart.

Layne says,

This happens to me as well! (Big shocker there not thinking something is good enough.. haha!) Sometimes also I have a thought or idea that I want to share, but it wont quite say itself in six and I just abandon it all together.

Dragonflower says,

Well, I am in the best company then!
