Lorraine, this is a workshop just like the poetry boards. Some people value critique as a means to improve their skills. Creativity, yes you have bucket loads, but that doesn't automatically make everything a work of art. I can't bring myself to lie and say "oh, wow how perfect." If something falls short it just does, despite any creativity and potential. Are you not willing to put in the work in and continue with this piece?

Consider the huge quantities of re-writes that take place on the poetry boards. The poets put in the effort and as a result many many of our Eratosphereans are getting published. This is what Erato is all about.

I can't answer for other people's behavior here either, short of closing threads.
