Advice for writing... and Bambi.
15 years ago
If someone tells you something about your writing doesn't feel right, they are almost always right.
If they try and tell you how to fix it, then they are almost always wrong.
Also, if I am seeing this right, one of the starkest, most daring aspects of Disney's Bambi is that it suggests that there is never a place in life where one can rest, where one can look about oneself and judge things, where one can be comfortable, knowing that wisdom and experience will get one through. Bambi, rather, suggests that one never gets used to anything, that life has a constantly-shifting set of rules, that adults know nothing more about life than a child does, that an adult is just as lost, just as confused, just as frightened as a child -- if not more so. The mysteries of life never get solved in Bambi, they only perpetuate themselves. Bambi is only a traveler on this line, never the engineer.

Especially if they profess to have an English Literature/Language degree and say they know best :P The first point does stand though.
