Big deal. It is why we have editors. If you read my story you would notice that I catch most of these little mistakes.

If you have a story, let me know. Horror stories is all I care about.

read something like Requiem for a Dream or Naked Lunch or House of Leaves, THEN tell me that basic sentence construction is a reason not to write anything...

All great writers have great editors and all great writers listen to their great editors... it's how the writing world goes around.

It amazes me how people tolerate uncapitalized words, misspellings and "2" instead of "two", as but a few examples, in all the post. But let someone accidentally use the wrong tense of a word and they can't write.

Real stupid.

I want to hear about stories. If you wrote one, tell me about it. I want to read your SHORT STORY.

i have a horrific short story called REVENGE OF THE COPYEDITOR - its very gory and is filled with COMMA SPLICES (and DICES)!


geez- do you think your imagination is so awesome that your utter inability to render a single sentence within the broad parameters of the english language can be overcome. . .

(ALSO - PLEASE head down to the often neglected "post your fiction" section and spare us these ramblings)

i started writing something once. everyone i showed it to thought it was really good, but i never really figured out what i wanted to write about.
like i started it but never finished it cause i didn't know what the plot was going to be about.

Zero, in your hardened ego do you really think you speak for everyone when you say, "spare us your rambling"?

Please... your're definitely not "Us".

If you did write this story I will read it and offer a full critique.

Just checked the neglected fiction post and you didn't write a story. You lied.

It is neglected and I'm trying to revive it.

Zero, write a story. In other words, put up or shut up. lol

You must be affraid of a critique.

oh my god - this Hemingway just actually looked to check and see if i had written a short story called "Revenge of the Copyeditor". . . i'm literally speechless . . .

There ya go... I edited that for ya.

I prefer the first person but thanks for the edit. lol
