post bits of your writing and links to stuff you’ve written here for constructive criticism.

if you post anything here try to specify what kind of feedback you would like. For example, are you looking for a critique of your assertions, creative feedback, or an unbiased editorial review?

if OP specifies what kind of feedback they'd like, please respect it. If they don't specify, don't take it as an invite to debate the semantics of what they are writing about. Honest feedback isn’t required to be nice, but don’t be an asshole.

We haven't had a random positivity thread in a while, so how about this: Answer one or more of the following.

  • What TV series deserved another season?
  • What book would you adapt as an anime?
  • Suggest one movie that you think belongs in the required viewing of an Introductory Film Studies college course.
  • What film or film series most needs a Muppet version? Hard mode: not the Benoit Blanc murder mysteries.

Let's go with (3). I have a list of films and other media based on the idea that the highest form of storytelling is when the story is an analogy for the process of telling the story, as in Hotel California or House of Leaves or Myst. I think that I would require students to consider one of the top three films from my list: The Matrix, Inception, or Shrek, viewer's choice.
