more on competent writing

Okay. We need to define competent writing because, so far, the responses I've received from the last post surprised me.

How do you define competent writing?

you can have an exceptional story marred by incompetence.

the trick it to marry your exceptional story to the translation to the written word. but then, if it was easy, everyone would be doing it with great success.

i have moments. i would like to string those moments together to create something fabulous, something once read, is hard to forget.

in the meantime, i will just write my exceptional stories marred by incompetence.

:)

Mmmm... Yes, you do have your moments of lovely storytelling ;). Lots and lots of them.

And it's not easy. Not at all.
