no way i dnt think its offensive or anything. Its hiow u feel and i believe dat people hav da right to speak deir mind. oh n thnax 4 reading my wrk n ya it ended quickly, but dats bcuz its a short story. Im taking it easy now n i'll post the first chap of da novel im workin on later. ur right, age dont matter when writing, but the thing is, no body wants to read the works of a 13 year old. The first thing they think is "Ok dis is going 2 be stupid cuz its done by a child" So thats why i feel pretty discouraged.  n u know wats worse? evry one expects me to do romance bcuz im a teen----ugh! why? im not romantic! all i write about is how i feel n wats my opinion. I like to write about things that make people think, the exact thing u did here. oh n sorry, i know i talk a lot.
