@cool08 How deeply did you analyze that, it is established that you are a good writer, as I know about myself, it is possible that some spelling may be wrong or there may be a difference of tense, anyway every country Citizens may have a different writing style, their slang, their limitations, their environment, their systems, their preferences, their perspectives, but still we want to reach our feelings through these short stories and possibly have been reaching them.
I would warmly welcome you if you would like to tell me about my shortcomings.
There is a saying in our country that the one who criticizes us should be given a room in the courtyard of our house.

That is a wonderful saying. In order to grow we need to understand the ways in which we can grow.

I agree with your sentiment completely here. Of course broken style and poor grammar interfere with a reader's enjoyment of a story. However, I personally always ask myself, what does the story mean? Is this author trying to saying anything of value?

Writing is a vehicle. We share our lives, our experiences, our perspectives through writing. That is its value to me. When I read a story I hope to be moved in some way. If that happens, I consider the story to be 'good'.

Exactly. If I felt something because of the story, it was time well spent ♥️
