Pick I make two artisanal, cruelty-free, bespoke turds a day. So as a fellow maker I can say that it is my expert opinion his book is poo poo.

I can't even see what the title of the book is, I'll probably never read it, and no, you can't convince me to read it.


However, I still say that your book is terrible.

I appreciate Pick's positivity, but perhaps she should marry it to a sense of genuine perspective instead of blithe trolling?

Lmao ignore the person who has actually made anything and is encouraging others to make things also. Ok assholes.

If I coded a video game it would be awful, because I don't know poo poo about coding. I wouldn't post it here or anywhere else. I don't know why people who don't know poo poo about writing think what they crap out is any different.

Is there even a writing thread on the forums? I was looking for one once but I only found the "Thunder dome" and I think that's something else.

I read a bunch of the preview and it doesn't seem "great" or "good" but I still applaud the author for putting in the work and actually finishing something. The most questionable part might be the decision to put it on Amazon without having someone competent scrub it first for poo poo like extra or missing punctuation marks

I helped write a book with GBS and I am incredibly proud of it. I think even if your book sucks (as my subsequent solo book very much did) that the accomplishment is something to take pride in. Starting an art project takes passion but finishing one takes discipline and it is my hope that OP can take the work he has done to get to this point and apply it into achieving other, perhaps better thought out, goals.
