Hello. Below is an excerpt I’ve written for a larger work. I’m looking for some honest feedback about it. Can anyone offer any?
it was the same feeling as when he was a younger boy, during recess with the other schoolchildren, when he had boldly proclaimed his superiority, and when warned by the sixth grade physics olympiad title holder (who being a full year older imparted a world of wisdom) that he had consumed too much ice cream and cake, lost to one his lesser-known competitors, a wobbly legged, bespectacled sporophyte, and became the laughingstock of his friends and enemies, due solely to an ignorance of his bodily humors. |

There is more to eat than ice cream and cake. Some people go on dates and have corn dogs and fried dough. Sometimes there is a pie eating contest with delicious apple pies where contestant don't use their hands.

Remember that whok was a 22-year-old dude who knew nothing about writing back then (not that he knows anything about writing now) but that's literally his "excerpt." |

I hope you know the guy/loser who stole the excerpt was a jealous and failed writer himself who posted it on his own message board and used sock puppets to criticise it. |

1. You're the IRL whok

Date: June 8th, 2019 2:18 AM Author: appetizing apoplectic point Ok, if you want more details, here they are:
Excerpt (definition): A passage or quotation taken or selected from a book, document, film, or the like; extract.
Excerpts are supposed to be longer than that measly piece of trash. I would expect a FULL page to get an idea of what the larger work that is being showcased will cover.
What you wrote is literally a run-on sentence chunked together into a full paragraph. It almost looks as if you're asking "Hey, can someone tell me if I can write in the English language properly? I just took English 101."
Srsly, I hadn't read the excerpt when I first read what damn daddy wrote about it, but he's spot on:
"He spent a lot of time bragging about some stupid as fuck novel he was writing. the samples he showed to the bort indicated that whok may have suffered from blunt-force trauma to the skull at some point when his brain was still developing." (Ref: http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2840029&forum_id=2#27570333)
Sorry, whok. This doesn't mean you can't improve, though. Why not take a creative writing course and an English 101? |

|
Date: June 8th, 2019 4:17 AM Author: appetizing apoplectic point What questions do you have? Be specific. I already said its a run on sentence into a chunk or paragraph and short enough that cant qualify as an excerpt. It looks like what an 11-year-old would ask his teacher at his first try at writing something.
Ask away if you have actual questions. No clue wtf you want to hear. |

Even if that were the case, we'd have to then be blown away by the content. You only provided a tiny excerpt where content and grammar are shit.
Provide a full page and then we can talk. |
