Hello! to all you fellow writers,poets and critics.

My name is Maria.I am aged 40

I live in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in England,
It’s been a long while since i’ve been on here, i’m getting the internet back at home so will be becoming a regular site user again.
I don’t tolerate bullying arrogant reviewers, but I am willing to learn if done with manners on the reviewers part.
I’m a bit of a free spirit regarding writing. I like to vent my frustrations and show my emotions, but i also enjoy creative and experimental writing, and writing lyrics. I’m a feminist(so dislike sexism), Currently i’m on the sick owing to back/joint and stress problems.  But I do have a couple of hours of leaflet delivery work and now currently reheasing as a …

Woke up Saturday 20th March. Had diahorroea three times, not sure if it was some dodgy food (as my tummy was a bit bloaty), or if it was the fact I was due my second band rehearsal. Our band comprises of Victor, the keyboardist, Victor two the bass guitarist/singer-when he wants to be) and Sandie the accoustic guitarist, and myself their newby singer. Yep, having two Victor's has to be strange. I arrived at the community hall where we do our practice at 1.45pm, no sign of the lady with the ke...

The walls of techno, shutting humanity out No more face to face, no more consequence All too easy to walk away   The walls of techno, blocking out the truth Our feelings hidden, with a screen inbetween Pretending to be who we aren't   The walls of techno, simplifying life Removing human values Ridding the world of polite nicities   We say just what we want It's too easy to walk away No consequence, say what we want   Walls of techno, devalue our love and destroy true frien...

I exist, but I do not live. I have battled, but I have lost. I have pain, it will not go. Humanity has turned me to loneliness. Humanity has turned me to silence. I have tried but it has kicked me in the teeth no matter where or how I turn. I am innocent of crime, yet I am a prisoner in this world. I want to let go, but I can't, even when I tried that, I failed. What did I do wrong other than to be honest and decent. We can't be decent in this world if we try others are jealous. May...

Screenplay / The Knife Job
Overall, I think it would be a good play to create awareness of knife crime/drugs and the pressures of gang violence and just how easy errors can be made. I disagree however with the fact your diners would not be actors, as this may result in uneccesary shock, leading to panic, which may cause accidents, not only that those with Mobile phones may opt to ring the real police. Well written

I kind of like it, Reminds me of old ladies when I used to work on the wards, with their regrets about things they didn't do. Also reminds me of how life goes so fast, and of all of our experiences, if only we could go back and right our wrongs, to make the best of opportunities. Thing i disagree with is, is thats not always possible. I think this is what the latter piece of the poem is trying to say. But what I don't get is why has she lost her goodness, just because you don't succeed at eve...
Quotes / The True Artist
Love that, A true artist speaks their mind doesn't care about embarrassment, doesn't give up. I'd disagree though about embarrassment aspect in a way. I like to do my art in private(improve it enough to go public, and I do care what people think, but in a way i don't because I don't give up my art for no-one. Interesting quote and well written
