This is a poll for the story in the 'Wanna read a terrible fic?' topic. Tell me what you think, and please be honest. You won't hurt my feelings if you didn't like it.

Outcast Halfbreed, this is the single best advice I can give you, from one writer to another, and this goes for any other writer who reads this, I'm talking to you too.
NEVER DOUBT YOURSELF!
When you start writing something, don't stop. The time for realizing that an idea may not be so good has passsed once you start injecting life into that idea. If you thought it was good enough to write about, write about it. If you're always second guessing yourself, you'll never get anywhere, trust yourself, and whatever fueled your desire to write about that idea in the first place.
Writing is conveying a story, one that only you know, to the entire world. There are so many great ideas, that get crumpled up and thrown away, because writer's start doubting themselves, they start thinking about it too much. Just sit and write, don't stop because you're afraid no one will like it, it's your story, and it needs to be heard.
Always believe in yourself, the story, and your characters, and the story will be a success. Sometimes it doesn't matter how good a story idea really is, as much as how much the writer actually cares about the story. You can always tell the difference between an author who writes simply for the money in it (A.k.a. the wrong reason) and the the writer who writes because he loves it. (A.k.a. the right reason)
Just some sdvise....
I'd love to read the rest of your story, I think you've got a good idea there!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!

WOW!!!! Rotromal, that was well thought out. However, I guess I did make it sound like I doubted myself, I really didn't. There is just stuff in this story were I tried way too hard, and other parts, not hard enough. I started about 20 or so stories all around the same time. That was probably a mistake. Anyway, one by one I lost intrest in writing them. I sort of have an over active imagination. So what ends up happening is I get through a story a little ways, then I think of a new Idea and jot down a few notes, and before I know it theres another flowing story and I lose intrest in the last one.  . So anyway, back on topic, this is one of the few stories I still remember to origonal idea. So I figure I might as well post it and see what others think. Cause if I get enough people wanting me to continue, I'll find that urge to, well, continue. So yeah, I'm really not doubting myself in anyway, if anything, I'm trying to get my desire to write again. *sigh* The truth comes out, doesn't it  .

What I read, ouh well for me I don't write for 'love' I don't write for 'Fans*' I don't write because I have to *(Darn I hate swedish but I can say that 'Fan' means Devil in Swedish  )
I write because I need to learn how to write English! And Luckily I have raise my English number with one and what encourage me to continue it
And for me I use imaginative darn much I throw on the story everything nice what I figure out, as much of using 'Love, Action, Adventure, Traitors, Battle and much of Sadness what bost to rip Readers heart, while writing sadness and using your own feelings and sadness you see that you can write really crule stories, I noticed it when I wrote Road to Victory, because I slaughtered few of my main Characters, and some other without mercy what sounds stupid'
Well I bet that you guys don't have to learn how to write english because this is more USA/English place than something else, feeling that I'm only Fin in here who is active user ^^
Use everything what hit's on your mind, read stories and try to find inspiration for something, like I find out 'That dog can throw' ouh well I stole that from TV so it don't matter anything ^^
Like Rot said don't blain your self, even thought if someone don't like it, and also I haven't read it Reason (Typical versions):
1)Lazy
2)What else to do?
