dhrubo,

you have been given much encouragement in this thread. i wanted to be a little more serious, especially, if you wanted to take writing seriously.

writing is a craft and what it expresses, depending on the medium, can approach an artform. like all crafts, learning about it makes you a little better each day. once you have acquired the basics, you may break them creatively.

good writing needs no accolade. the very best is pairing it down to the very basics and reporting it exactly how it happened.
i don't wish to discourage you. however, i also don't want to raise your hopes to an unjustified level. if you are serious about writing then stop writing and start reading. read, read and read. read for the next dozen years. when you are 24, pick up the pen again.
best wishes,
puck
