i really am so sorry you feel that way (and i am not a stranger to that same hurt myself). i hope you know that i’ve got your back and i’m always on your side as a fellow writer. please participate, please post your work, and please don’t ever feel like there is a competition, because there is none. sometimes the thinking patterns of the outside world, where we compete over good grades and jobs and whatnot, creep into our creative communities, but they really have no space here. we’re all just a bunch of library-loving nerds, who love to tell stories. we fight back by telling them ♡

As a fellow writer in the mystery fest, these comments are exactly why I don’t want to participate in fests or even post my work anymore. So, you’re right. People are hurt by it.
