I have always felt that we can all learn from others experiences. I have seen some post that they have had boring lives but not to others! I have never been a crab fisherman, a cowboy, a policeman or a fireman. Seen plenty of them but never shared their experiences. I can here if they will share.
I have seen some post that they hesitate because they can not spell, well that is what the spell check is for.
Some say they don't know how to write or have poor writing skills. Well I say, Join the crowd. I know nothing about writing, just type it as I think it and that is good enough to convey the experience.
I have seen some post that they worry that their posts are too long. I have never seen one too long myself. Quite the contrary. It drives me crazy when someone posts a great story that is two paragraphs long
Man I want to know ALL about that hunting trip or fishing trip or what it is like looking at a dark western sky from a campfire. It takes words and that is how I paint the picture in my head, how I share the experience with the writer. Just, "I went up the creek and found some gold and went home with it in my pocket, hope you enjoyed the story" just don't get it
We want to know MORE
Not especially the name of the creek of course but there is so much more to a story than we realize.
I wish more of the readers would share their story's and I wish more of the readers would at least comment on the efforts of the others but I guess it isn't going to happen. Some are givers and some are takers and that goes back to their childhood I guess. Man I would love to hear the story's that made them the way they are.
I don't remember there ever being a fight or cross word on this forum and that says a lot about the people that post here. You are certainly welcome
