I wrote this for a writing contest at schl, but I'm not sure what chance I have.:p Rate 1-10 (1 being lowest)?

We Answered:

I read it. I don't know how old you are, but if you wrote it for your high school class, it is excellent. I have 3 very bright teenagers, so I know how teenagers write, and you write exceptionally well for that group.

If you are in college, I think you need to just watch to make sure you aren't trying too hard. You mix a lot of metaphors and use metaphors in a way that only complicates the writing. It is very esoteric, wandering "free association" writing and instead of being lyrical, it comes off as a little self-indulgent and verbose just for the sake of being verbose.

Good luck, and I hope you get a good grade on your essay. :)
