I'm not good at descriptions.

A lot of new writers start their forewords off with this statement and sometimes just leave it at that. Understandable, right? I mean no one is perfect in their writing and-

I'll stop you right there

you are dead wrong.

Modesty is a wonderful virtue and I certainly wouldn't want to condemn anyone for that but please cut the bull. Just ball it up and toss into the nearest waste basket. If you think that by saying this you'll somehow garner more attention for your not-as-ty-as-you-claim writing abilities then.. you're right. I hate to say it but there are those who fall into that superficial trap, like a fly on sticky paper. You tossed the bait and low and behold they met you halfway, practically hooking the damn thing in their own mouths. They'll respond with things like "whaaaatt?? this was amazing!" and "you're such a great writer, you don't at all" and of course this will do wonders to your premature writing-ego. Spit, shine, and polish.

Let me tell you right now, when I see that a foreword starts with "I'm not good at descriptions, just read it" I am clicking out of the tab faster than Hussein Bolt can run. You did it, you just told me you at writing description but you expect me to read a narrative written by you which is essentially a description itself???? no, nope, nuh-uh, not me. It is annoying and a great turn-off from reading a story. Give yourself some more credit, man. The only way to know if you truly is if a congregation of angry fanfic readers assemble a petition to run you off of AFF forever... well maybe it won't come to that. 

But anyway it's just been annoying me and significantly so. I don't really have much room to even say this since I have no stories up or anything but I'm making room! Please friends alike tell me what you feel about this or if you think I'm completely loco in the membrane, wouldn't be the first time.
