Need help ---

[SheDevilShay]

I have a story I want to submit to lit, but I am dyslexic and if my office doesn't catch the little stuff thats spelled correctly or is within normal grammar, I usually miss it... Its a short story (I think its like 3 pages.. 2066 words.) and I need someone to go over it with a red pen for me so I can submit the story for other people to read... I think you will really like it...


(there's some past tense changes, 3rd person/first person views that need edited I think before it would be "okay" enough for the publishing process, but I have problems catching those and i've re-read it about 500 times and I know its doing it, but need someone with the technical skill to help me.)

You'll probably get a lot more offers of help if you post this in the Editors Forum.

I'd offer, but I have company coming for the weekend, and don't know when I could get to it.

I'm also not the gentlest of editors.

*cough*bullshit*cough* You might think you're not the gentlest but nobody in the whole world can say that you're not the fairest and most helpful. You take time to explain what is wrong, how to fix it and you don't lose patience when someone doesn't understand it the first time.

Peace, WarriorPrincess.

You just love me, that's all.

Come over to the Authors Hangout. We don't bite (hard), and even occasionally talk about writing.

I posted a story on the feedback suggestion forum.. its non fiction though.

Shay,

Bullshit always starts, "This is a true story..."

The problem is, what really happened and how you remember it are two different things. We don't really care if it's fiction or "true". They are treated the same here.
