Stop Trashing Other Writers
If you want them to go away, block them and stay silent
It drives me nuts. Writers who write negative pieces about other writers.
While I hate it, I do read them more often than I care to admit. I also always gawk at car wrecks and roadside drug searches as I drive by.
You must read them, too. I suspect they are lucrative, or so many wouldn’t choose to write them.
Some name the person by name, while others give enough clues that you can figure it out if you read much und Medium.
If the subject is doing anything but laughing with glee on their end, I’d be surprised. They know someone (probably me) is going to read their stuff to see their “sins” on display.
I’m finally starting to avoid giving these pieces attention and trying to get them out of my feed. It’s difficult since some are by writers I know have talent. Writers I like. These articles don’t showcase their talent and make me question my support of them.
There are some great writers on this platform. People who stay in their lane and do their thing. They don’t have time to trash other writers — they’re too busy coming up with ideas of significance.
