If Miss Mia wants to be a writer, then let's all hope to god that she writes better than she does in her journal. Otherwise, her editor would have to kill themselves from having to correct so much unreadable junior high-type slang. >.>;;;;;
And, you know, now that you point it out it certainly does seem to be that most of the amateur writing you find online is from females. I wonder why? Maybe we're more set up to deal with criticism (spelled wrong, but I'm tired and don't care) to our creative efforts? Or perhaps it's a reflection of the emotional state that we are permitted/encouraged/required to posess, which is usually not seen as positive when exhibited in guys, and therefore could be extended towards writing these things down on paper/computer as an outlet. Or something. I dunno. Did I mention I'm tired? This is why I shouldn't respond to things at night (especially for class...).
