Needing Some Support
This obviously isn't relevant to most of you, I'm sure, but I need to talk. This isn't roleplay related. I'm sorry.
For about five years, I've been writing on Hubpages (a site for writing informative articles for which you can be paid if you're over 18). For about the past nine months, I've been writing articles about pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding.
This isn't relevant to most of you, especially considering that "older" role players are so rare, but it's important to me. These articles are how I make what little money I earn, to apply to the things I want and need (like a new computer, or the kitten I want to buy).
Recently, thanks to a request for advice that I made, I've been told that I should pack it in and delete my articles.
We all know how mean the roleplay community can be. This reminds me of those hate blogs.
I'm just needing some support. And if any of you want to read the articles and tell me if you feel that I'm offering too much "advice" on them, I'd appreciate that, since that seems to be the biggest complaint these people have about my articles: That I'm offering "advice" to minors about how to get pregnant, and that I'm not qualified to advise people on their health.
I've spent the last two days crying, and I feel like a baby about this, but I'm angry and I'm frustrated and I'm so discouraged that it's hard to keep going on. Kind words would be so appreciated right now.
