I have recently posted a new story, after over eleven months of trying to write I managed to eke out a short story. I have one comment out of over 350 reads. Either I am a whiz at writing or I totally suck, It would be nice to know if there are any errors, is there continuity, did one get lost in the story. I've been in a depression and want to ensure I am doing okay again. I admit I need validation.

46 Kudos in one day is pretty good!
Dear Jill,
I was one of those who read (and enjoyed) your story but didn't leave a comment. You are not 'a whiz at writing' but nor do you 'totally suck'. As with 90% of the writers on this site (myself included) you come somewhere between the two. But I would say that to receive 46 kudos in just over a day is pretty good going and there are many authors who would be pleased with that number. Many of us experience bouts of depression and when this happens it is not a good time to try to judge our own capabilities.
I did not find any mistakes and followed your story quite happily. I could wish that you didn't use so many one and two sentence paragraphs and also you didn't start each new sentence on a new line, but that is probably me being picky.
Regards
Louise
Thank you
I really appreciate it when some one is honest with me. I know I am not a whiz but if no one comments then there is two ideas a whiz or one really doesn't tell a story well.
This particular story was a step back into the pool of authors. I usually pay attention to my sentence structure.
If you want to volunteer to edit for me I'd like that. My usual editor has nor been on site for a while.
Again Thank you for your input.
