I figured I'd pop on and say hi, I'm a writer so maybe you'll see some of my stories in the archive.

Welcome, and I'm sure your submissions will be welcome... We look forward to reading them on the other site...

Thanks, and my first story was just approved and posted! I tried to join the old forum but my account kept getting deleted before it was approved so I never managed to post anything.

Just read it, overall not bad, but I tend to be a bit of a 'Grammar / Spelling Nazi' and you had enough 'wrong word' and punctuation errors to be distracting.. I'm stingy with my 5 star ratings, so you only got a 4 because of this.

My posted comment on it...

Nice, but a fairly large number of ‘wrong word’ errors and punctuation issues. Basic story line was sound, perhaps could have used a little more ‘backstory’ about the universe, what / why are there all these non-human type characters, etc…

I'd definitely encourage you to submit more stories, but it might be good if you can find a language fanatic to do some final proofreading and editing before submitting them...

Yeah editing is the bane of my existence I do need to find someone who is willing to look over my more colorful stories. As far as the lore of the world I have another 14 parts to this story so far and I have some world building in each of them. I’ll go over the rest of the chapters before I submit them though.

I used quillbot's grammar checker before for my own submissions. It is very helpful! And free!
