It may be only a message board, but it's not chat or note passing during your Chemistry class.

We're here to have a conversation with other intellegent people. Put some work into your posts and you may not be ignored, as much.

The subject title of "why" explains absolutely nothing. When you see a thread, you more than likely would like to know what it's about.

If you look at all the other threads, you can tell what they are about before opening them.

Where's the element of surprise (or shock) in that, SweetQ?

I'm sorry, but if my introduction to you is that - on a site dedicated to Broadway - you want help writing a musical, but don't know who Mr. Guettel is, I'm not inclined to take you seriously at all.

And if I actually have to WORK at figuring out what you're trying to say - if you want to text someone, use your phone - then you can forget it.

wow, ok sweetq i see your point. But my subject of "why" got your attention didn't it. I mean you opened it right. And then once you got in you read, understood and replied so mission accomplished. Ans i know that i am speeking to intelligent people. All i am saying is that im not trying to empress any of you. And so i dont know some mr. whatever. That doesnt mean i dont appreciate broadway.

crimson- There's a difference between trying to impress and trying my make a good impression.

MLE. I understand, but not to be rude but im not understanding why you people would judge my writing off of how i write on a messege board.

No one was judging you.

O.K. Well you should relax a bit. Do you write for a living?

[Fiction Writer]

Posted: 10/26/06 at 10:58pm

No, but I'd like to.
I have to finish this book first, and see how the public takes it. Being published is one goal of many. Broadway acting (or acting in general) is not, although I'd love to have one of my plays on Broadway.
I also want to be a chef, just don't have the time or money to go to classes.

Thats awesome. We share some of the same interests except i love acting. Isuck but love it.

Fiction, the last thing I want to do is be a snarky bitch, but check your spelling of "intelligent."

How do I put this delicately - it would be one thing for a 'fan' to come on looking for conversation, but not know some of the key contributers to the genre working today. It's an entirely different thing when you leap out of the gate with, "I'm looking to write a musical."

BWW needs a grammar/spell check.
If I don't see the squiggly red and green line, I don't know it's wrong.
And you're the snarkiest bitch I know.

[justagirl2]

Posted: 10/26/06 at 11:14pm

Yeah, I probably am. But that's what makes me so much fun.

A grammar/spell check would be much appreciated...but then again, we wouldn't have nearly so many entertaining arguments!

Maybe you should just learn to spell, FW!

"If I don't see the squiggly red and green line, I don't know it's wrong."

May I PLEASE just make a little note that this statement was made by someone with 'writer' in their screen-name?

An aspiring writer, DG.

Touche, FW!

"An aspiring writer, DG."

Tools? You're no longer supposed to even be INTERESTED in the tools?!?

[Fiction Writer]

Posted: 10/26/06 at 11:31pm

I believe I have a very good track record when it comes to spelling. My grammar, on the other hand, may be off a little.

Touche is one of my most favorite words.
