"Men are born to succeed, not fail." -Henry David Thoreau

I'm Mira, although the real name is Kristy. Age thirteen. Writer of the crap-novel Fall of Naitto, which people I know seem to adore. But I'm not sure about others, though. I can be immature, why. It's not like I am all-time serious. I like to draw and make metaphors about writing. One of my 24/7 hobbies is playing video games. Ah, how I love doing that.

Writing is like a vine. You care for it, it spreads and grows and clings to fences, walls and other trees. If you do not care for it, it will still grow. When the winter comes, it dies but the roots remain living. That's a true writer's spirit. It might take you years to have it grow the smallest grapes, and when you try to eat those, they seem sour and bad. Do not lose spirit and wait for your vine to grow until next year, so it grows strong and solid, so when the harvest comes, you will be happy with your fruit. Writing can also adapt to this.

Writing policy

I write without a reason. I review without a reason. I don't think the "Review my works and I'll review yours!" trade is a good one, as it's simply a chain where nobody bothers review the other. There's more and more review-less stories around, and less active reviewers.

So drop the review policy, because I'd review without wanting anything in return, although I'd gladly review works that want to be reviewed. I'd however do the same policy, but I would not expect anything in return from anybody who has this policy.
