Can someone help me?

13 Years Ago


Hello Everyone
I've only began writing several days ago and i would like some help with editing my work and to ask if its any good. I can't edit to save my life, so my few pieces of work I've written are filled with a gross amount of spelling, grammar and other errors so i am wondering if anyone could take the time to look and point out any problems. I would also like to ask if i could get a small review on the good and bad things about my stories, so i can decide whether or not to continue with them

Thanks for taking the time to read this

Allen

Don't despair, friend. I don't have all the answers, but I would suggest continue reading and writing a lot, and eventually your style will start to evolve. Don't try to make it perfect right off the bat, it's not going to happen. Do the best you can, and stick to it. Also, pick up a good book on style, or go on the web to Bartleby's.com and find William Strunk's Elements of Style. Put that in your favorites so you can refer to it whenever you need it. It's a big help. Anyway, best of luck!   Shadowman99
