about experiment 127

Hey world!

I have created this blog to be able to show the outside world my writing pieces and get comments and critiques (good and bad!) with my identity being hidden. I really love writing but I am always too embarrassed to let any friends or family read my pieces, so PLEASE comment and tell me exactly what is on your minds'!

Also, please try and answer all the survey questions scattered about my blog; this is another little experiment of mine!

I will be posting additions to my stories or even new stories at the very least once every two weeks. Different stories will have distinctly different names that no one should have trouble separating the two.

Anyway, if you stumble across my blog and like the writing, please follow me and comment/criticize away!

Jennifer Weiner

I recently read an article in the August 2013 Cosmopolitan magazine called, "Jennifer Weiner Vs. the World" with a picture of the well-known female author holding a sign saying, "I won't be ignored." 

While Weiner has been called a bully and her motives as being totally self-interested, I was inspired by her uproar. She is an advocate for female writers as female authors tend to get the short end of the stick when publicity and reviews are concerned. 

Self-interested or not, Jennifer Weiner's efforts are still bringing attention to the injustices occurring to female writers across America. And that can only be a good thing.

Bottom line: Jennifer Weiner is a friend to female writers and deserves a nice round of applause!
