I feel that everyone needs to start somewhere when it comes to writing! I was hopless with grammar, not because I'm uneducated, just didn't need to have polished Grammar to be good at my day job. They cared more about my sales targets, people skills and other abilities.
I learned writing to improve it. I learned not from the nitpickers but from people who genuinely like my stories like TJ, Springie, CD, LB and a few others here. They just gently offered to help rather than came in with a sledgehammer or only commented on the mistakes. Their approach of real encouragement worked far better!!! Thanks girls!
I'm not worried about the grammar Nazi's any more like I did a few years ago, they can pick away all they like, I'd rather hear if the story itself was any good or needed improvements etc over if I missed a commar! I do respect the language, don't get me wrong here, but our language is a living language evolving all the time.)
Scratches head...I wonder how many spelling mistakes are in theis post!!! LOL
