ok,

so,

I was trolling through a few galleries or sites or whatever you want to call your 'manage pieces' page and I realized that I choose pieces to read based on two things: title and votes. Now I went and looked at my own gallery and decided that this was probably a bad idea. I also realized that people confused me in what they like (the things i write that i like the most often have few votes).

I started wondering about other authors and if perhaps they felt that there were pieces in their galleries/what-have-yous that they liked but felt were under appreciated by the 'public' for whatever reason.

and so I invite you to post links to them here.

I know I will read them, though I cant promise that anyone else will.

pleasepleaseplease

my most recent piece: My Existence
http://www.indyfluency.com/v.php?p=1539

and Self
http://www.indyfluency.com/v.php?p=1297

I'm really quite proud of both of them and yet they only have two votes each,

Not that it's my best piece or anything, but I never got why this never got any votes/comments (yet)...
“That's it. I'm just following my nose and waiting to see what comes up.”
“Welcome to the club.”
“Club? What club is that?”
“The International Brotherhood of Lost Dogs. What else? We're letting you in as a certified, card-carrying member. Serial number zero zero zero zero.”
“I thought that was your number.”
“It is. But it's your number too. That's one of the beauties of the Brotherhood. Everyone who joins gets the same number.”

okay. i don't mean to sound unappreciative. but this piece has 6 votes and 2 A* and ONE FREAKING COMMENT (thanks golds).

this is very bothersome.

could you possibly leave comments? for the sake of my neuroses?

I've, uh, always wanted some feedback on http://www.indyfluency.com/v.php?p=1423 I suppose. I think it was the first or second piece that I started utilizing dialog and exchange of thought in my writing.

I was going to say the south saint jude series, but that damn thing is so far away from being finished its not even funny. I'm just trying to flesh out what it's about, at the moment. (boring boring boring exposition and boring boring boring character development)
