I just have to hope that people will see my book when it is on the shelf for sale, so that it can serve its purpose and help those who have suffered, or who are still suffering. I can see no other purpose for my having lived such a life, if it isn't to be able to help others get through theirs!
This is an article about how strange and cold some people can be. It just shows how easily we can misjudge people. To be part of a community which seems to be supportive and helpful and then, when letting them in on something close to your heart and very painful, only to have this 'opening up' ignored, shows me that nothing much has changed.
I am very surprised that 175 people so far, have read my 'chapters' on my life, 'Conflicts & Struggles of Donni-Jay,' And have NOT been moved enough to even BOTHER TO REVIEW! (Except for three kind people.) Acknowlegement and encouragement would have been lovely.
Why is this I wonder? Are the 'poems' which get reviewed all the time, REALLY much more important than 'real life?' I can not believe that there are so many shallow people around!
Well, I don't understand how 'words' just for the sake of rambling on paper, can possibly count far more than supporting someone who writes their horrific and traumatic life story, in an attempt to help others that are going through terrible things. It is far more constructive to help other human beings and show them that they too, can survive and even achieve great things, no matter how impossible it looks.
So, why no support from those on Authorsden? No support from those who used to review my poems? No support from those who seemed to care about me? From those who like to 'think' they are caring and kind?
So? Where are you 'real' people? I am so very disappointed in the lack of human sensitivity!

| I just have to hope that people will see my book when it is on the shelf for sale, so that it can serve its purpose and help those who have suffered, or who are still suffering. I can see no other purpose for my having lived such a life, if it isn't to be able to help others get through theirs! Donni-- I'm Sheee - I've written to you a few times, but.. If you may- let me speak for others, Not writing reviews to others. The reason could be time- Time is of the Essense and they could of bookmarked you and then, forgotten... Keep up what you do and feel and your magic will rub off to the one it is meant for. Right now- I feel like it's Me... Sorry, to put it so bluntly... but - let me tell you.. Parts of your Saddest and Challenging parts of your life.. was mine- and I could feel your tears as you try to express your strength to just go on! Another thing I would like to mention.. is, Since your Such an Excellent Artist.. Why -? would you want any comments from others.. I believe in Constructive Critism too, it's Really Important... but, some - may not want to hurt your feelings by writing something mundane or trifle... I always speak from my heart and I feel that is the most important way to go through life with Everyone... To have others like you is GReat- but, yOU have to like yourself and Have Faith in yourself.. and I learned that the hard way...What are you doing as of today? I would love to know.. your newest accomplishments, and How are your children? Did they come around? I wrote alot and I hope you or anyone hasn't minded but, I felt it important to shareeeeeee.... Have a GREAT DAy! WEek and MOnth... Lady,Sheee *(Sheila G) |

Donni, people generally won't read and review longer works these days. For some reason that seems to be more so on this site. I don't know why. But I do know that sometimes a writer's style, no matter how compelling the story, can turn readers away. A good editor can help when this is the problem. I'm not saying that's your case. I haven't read your chapters. Anyhow, often people will read and read, like what they read, but are still too lazy or sometimes just too distracted to comment.
I'm surprised sometimes by the people who will pop up and comment on my Den and say that they've been following me for months, but that will be the first I've heard from them. Be encouraged. |

I am sorry more people aren't paying attention to you, Donni. I have read your articles about your life, and I am sorry if I haven't commented as regularly as I should; forgive me? Still, your story deserves (and needs) to be told, and I am glad you shared it with us here. Good luck with the book; that's more than I have right now! I have over 1,400 stories, but no book! so you have me beat there! maybe one day i will have a book of my own.....*sigh* i can only dream and keep writing and hope for the best....
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in tx., karen lynn. :( |

| Donni-Jay: Sweets, the same exact thing is happening to me. I'm writing about my disastrous life right now. Very few people are commenting, but lots are reading. I suspect whoever is reading doesn't want me to know who they are, because the way I see it, almost EVERYONE is screwed up. Just be thankful people are reading, because that probably means you are helping and inspiring people to help themselves. I appreciate your rant--I'm experiencing the same thing right now. |

Hi Donni:
I think we are all subjected to this treatment at one time or another, and yes, it does hurt our feelings a lot, especially when we think most people are or once have been our friend(s).
Don't lose your faith, put your book on the shelves in the bookstore, I'm sure a lot of people are going to read it. Sometimes it is always better to hold a book in hand to read than to read that from a computer screen.
Good luck with all your future endeavours!
Sandie May Angel :o) |

I do read you Donni as you know...but have been attacked and judged badly by people here on AD...and I just felt that by not showing my "FACE" MIGHT CALM THE WATERS"
But the battle is still on... I am losing faith in those I thought were my so called friends....that turned out to be backstabbers instead!!
Even false E-mails with my name attached to it is going around and I have no Idea Who this impersonater of my ID is!!
Take care... and best regards to Rev Davey!!
Lovew Tinka |
