HELP!

Why does everything i write never seem good to me, it can be ok, but it's not amazing. You know, sub par. Why can't i write something you'd want to read over and over again and go "god, what goes on in that guys head to write something so amazing like that", like Conor Oberst(Bright Eyes) , Tim Kasher(Cursive/The Goodlife) , Dustin Kensrue(

if you think you aren't conveying emotions or ideas the way you want to, the best solution is to read. read many books on different subjects by different authors. more reading increases your vocabulary, style and ability to express yourself. and you will never think you are perfect, no one ever does.

ladies and gents, one of the only men i love.... in a purely non-homosexual way... any books u suggest?

Find something that interests you. Read a Harry potter or maybe something with a stab at society, like 1984.

just go to the library and pull out something that seems interesting. try out that lovely fiction section. and you're lucky, you get a free membership to the t.o. library because you live there, its $50 for out of towners like me :(
