    lol @ Chris

    Don't stop writing....even if you had the most ridiculous writing I wouldn't say quit. I was never into reading classic poetry....I don't read famous poets very often. Writing is something I do because I enjoy it. I don't feel that I need to be up on all the old and new poets as I write because it's something that I love. My writing as totally changed since I started writing. Just carry on if poetry is something you love...you'll get better with time.

    We all go through depressing periods as writers when each of us think that what we have written stinks and we should stop writing.

    Do not lose sight of the reason for which you write, for me it is a way to let out feelings, emotions, thoughts and is a great outlet. I love to write. First and foremost, your writing should be for yourself, you are not trying to please all others or the world. You will have your own very unique style, each writer does. You can never please everyone.
    Remain true to yourself.

    To broaden your experience as a writer, read more of other good writers works, this will help broaden your scope and sharpen your own skills.

    We all have ups and downs and what I call dry spells, but these will stop. So cheer up and write because you enjoy it.

    I thought JPM was being really helpful, and was not rude at all..

    Keep writing. It's doing no harm, and if it's helpful... well you've got your whole life to improve.

    Bob if you stoped writing i think i would be lost too! or at least part of me i love your work!

    I don't think that you should stop writing though to the original post because if you want to improve this is the place you can recieve that. maybe if you join a seriouse club you can learn helpful hints on ofhow to improve your writing and you may be happier with it. Don't let the comments and votes get you down if this is the reason you have posted this thread just try to learn and get from them what you can. It's up to you to decide if you want to stop posting or not, it's your work.

    Stop writing only when your mind commands you. And also, write only when you feel like it. I agree with what most people say here. It is up to you, but never stop writing unless you really feel you can'y anymore (either physically, or psychically.)

    no!!!!!!!!! i think you should keep on writing if you like it !!! if you don't like to write then i think you should stop only do things that you like and don't do things just becaues some one tells to do them some times just becaues your friends are doing some thing dose not mean that you should do it toooo

    what do you think you should so????? it is up to you

    old thread. if the original poster still wants to know about whether they should stop writing, if they haven't already, then they can repost the thread.

    You have the power of choice... simple as... if you wish to continue writing then do so... whether or not people like your poems, doesnt matter... Do what you like doing and dont let other people tell you not to.
