I don't know why I even try when you're there. I barely know you, and you barely know me, we're just acquaintances from this little group we're in. You have 5 characters now, I have 3. I seem to be stuck at 3, because every time I make a form to get another, you unknowingly spit in my face and apply too, beating everyone else almost every single time.
I was impressed when I first saw your posts, and I still am. Your writing, your art, you do both amazingly and I can't deny that you're fantastic at what you do. But... the group's stopped being fun now. I just want another character for my collection, and every time I enter a contest I'm afraid of you. I check the page every day, looking for your name, just waiting for a link to your form. It feels like a ridiculous version of being on death row, almost- when I see your post on the page, I know I'll never get that character. I can't draw, and I can't write anything like you can. I can't draw, I can't write, I simply can't win.
I'm not good enough.
I'll never be good enough.
I'll never be good enough to beat you.
I barely know you, and you barely know me, but that doesn't make each kick to the teeth any less painful.
I doubt you'll find this, but if you do, I'm so sorry. Take good care of Rock, ok?
Congrats on winning the contest, you really do deserve it.
