Writer's Consideration

I have considered myself a writer for several years now, since I was a Junior in High School actually. After having quite an out of body experience I went ot class on Monday morning and spoke with a friend of mine, telling him the outrageous, yet obviously interesting, aspects of my recent experience and his response to me was, 'Dude! You should be a writer.'
So now, here I am a Junior in College and I have written two full manuscripts in the Science Fiction genre and have also written several short stories of fiction, science fiction, and fantasy. A month ago I sent out the manuscript of my first novel to several publishing companies and am hoping for good new, yet, my next goal will be to find an agent if things do not work themselves out.
I spend most of my free time writing and that is what I want my blog to be about, amatuer writing of any genre that overall speak to readers of peace, obtaining peace, or being denied peace. In my mind this can be anywhere from a story about real people to one imagined by the author for sometimes I find more truth in fiction than reality.
When I study theory, or when I read a novel or piece of literature in general, I think of what the author is trying to put forward. I also try to figure out if that message was passed correctly or if the mark was completely missed. Of course, being a writer, I am quite critical of those I read and have even thought my analysis as too strict. I read a lot and have therefore come to expect only the best work.
I would consider myself a liberal humanist fdor i do read purely for enjoyment and hope to udnerstand more about literature, and the art of creating what is considered 'good literature' by continuously reading. However, I also feel that my opinions on what makes 'good literature' have not changed much over the past few years and perhaps I am caught in a practiced form of criticism that for some reason I cannot shake.
I would like to invite anyone who has written anything really, a short story, novella, a chapter of a book, to post it on my blog so others can read your work and enjoy it. Respective, constructive criticism is always helpful and I don't find too many oppurtunities for such.
Please feel free to read my work as well.
Also, during this criticism of others writing, theory from class or the reading should be used to explain one's understanding of the text.
