Hey Nick, Everyone of us have had times, many times, where we've contemplated the way that we're doing things. With us as authors our characters and such come into play with our writing and our writing styles. So that when people are judging our stories people are also judging us. Not really as people, but sometimes it's hard to take. I know I've personally been compared to a lot of different authors. I'm sure you have as well. I remember being compared to an author. The person listed everything that the author does and everything that I fell short on in comparison. Let me tell you, I fell short on a lot of them, if not everything he mentioned. That I needed to do a lot of different things before I can call myself a writer and such. I've not done any of those as I'm not that author. I wouldn't want to be. Anyway, what needs to be understood is that none of us are the same person. To expect the same thing isn't fair and isn't really respecting what we do in our writing. I only asked him after everything he said was, "Are you a fan of me?" When he answered, "Yeah, I am," I left it at that. Even if he had said no it wouldn't have changed anything. I've learned to stop trying to please everyone and started working on writing the stories that I set out writing. The way that I wanted to, the ideas that I had, and the characters that are part of them. I don't turn a blind eye on criticim, only comparisons. Take all the time you need to settle and do everything so that you can continue writing. You bring something to the site, even if that ONE person doesn't appreciate it. Krista

The pic is beautiful James. Krista

Lol. I don't know what I'd do with gambling, it may not mix well with me. I've never been, but VEGAS is a place I want to visit. Krista

YES! Spas and Shopping.. lol. I like your thinking. - I would say, Kentucky, but I'd not want people to laugh at me. - Definitely not the place to have a convention. I like my state and all, but it's kinda boring. A convention doesn't really have to be just a gathering, it could be held some place public of course like say, Disney Land for those of us that would be a little shy. Then just have a PLAN for the Members that are there, like Meeting up for a day or so. Krista

Hey, Lol, people just normally drop their unwanted kittens and such on our road since no one lives down it really. I only have like three neighbors and they have the same dropping of animal problems. So I just normally take them in feed them and such then I take them to the Humane Society. I kept a box full of kittens and puppies I found back in the winter. Those are the ones I recently took to the Humane Society. The three huskies were taken to a Husky Rescue place, but someone adopted the three of them together since they had a separation anxiety as the three are so close. Now that I'm in the Fostering program I'll get a new kitten or puppy as a needed basis. As soon as the fostering of the animal is complete I can vollunteer to take another need on or not. It's really a good program and all Humane Societies have it I believe. Tomorrow is when I get the 3 kittens and their mommy. Krista

Aww, Jesse sounds like a good guy. I'm glad he was able to get some help and hopefully he'll pull through and feel better. I've also been wanting to see the Chuck and Larry movie... lol. Which is rare as I'm not an Adam Sandler fan for the most part. Krista

Everyone needs a break from things from time to time. To clear the air and the mind to refresh and do things you've been meaning to do and such. Then come back and feel better. Krista

Lol, you like Mondays..! I used to like them when I was in High School, but nah, they do nothing for me now. Krista

Lol. I think that'd work better overall really. Krista

Lol, I just realized that not 24 or so posts ago you were celebrating your 500th post. Good Job. Krista

Congratulations on your 600th post here at GA BeastKid. Have fun. Krista

Lol, you people and Beer. shew. I personally like Fruity beverages. I'd also like to visit the UK, but that's for the shopping... sorry, but clothes always win out in the end. I also don't do the tent camping thing either. I need a cabin before I call it camping. Krista

Lol, thanks Kanaye, I'm not doing anything HUGE, but really, I had a house full of kittens and puppies at on time.. so, recently a lot of people gained a new member of their family lately. Lol, I don't plan on taking quite so many animals in, but the Momma cat and the three kittens will be at my house until the babies are winged then they'll go up for adoption and if the Mother cat still isn't calmed down as she's kinda wild then I may just keep her.. as she'd not be suitable for adoption. I already have one crazy, evily ambitious cat so another would fit right in.. if they get along. It's also nice hearing that you took the time to adopt an animal really. Shelter animals make good pets. Krista

Lol. My other cat she's actually missed the kittens I had. So I know she does have a soft spot. I don't know how she'll react to another adult cat, but I'm sure I can handle them.. lol. I handle brats and such all the time. So does anyone else have anything new or happy to announce? Krista

Hey, So, I have some good news. The animals that I took to the Humane society, they've been all adopted out into good homes. I received pictures from their new owners and it's just a great experience to foster animals for a new home. I'm now entering into a program where I get abused or neglected or baby pet animals to prepare them for their forever homes. I'm supposed to pick up a litter of kittens Monday and their mother. Krista

Lol. I can imagine an interesting bunch of people. Krista

Hey, I think his intentions are probably good, who knows about celebrities really?.. lol. I think though, urging people to make a life choice is a negative thing in people. It's one of those, 'easier said than done' things most of the time and urging or giving them a push in the "right" direction could cause a lot of damage and stress. It is good that he's open minded though. Krista

Lol. Congratulations Jamie, even if it was a headache and a half for you. Krista

Hey, Those were both interesting articles. I read a few coming out stories where professional, high school, and college athletes are coming out and the problems they face. Krista

I hope everything works out as smoothly as possible. I know it'll be a mess and a half getting everything repaired and such. Good luck, Krista
