Who the hell do you think you are? What give you the right to say whether you are not a real writer or not?!?!?!?!?!

You should write fictional books and then store them on a disk where no one can ever see them. Then perhaps one day you might get an idea that could drastically improve one of your older stories and then submit it for publication.

Every single successful writer started out as a crappy writer. Destroying something you create serves no purpose. By all means keep them hidden (I do) but never delete them. You created it, you better keep it buddy!

Good luck with your writing. Just remember that no one can call you a bad writer but yourself... and you are probably wrong.

I also argue on forums because the people who surround me IRL can't be bothered to submit a considered opinion with some basis in fact. .

This forum? :rotfl:
