dragoncmd Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 After seeing so many stories recently that are nearly illegible due to grammar, puncuation, and paragraph spacing issues I decided to make this topic. This will (hopefully) be a list of people that authors can pm with stories if they don't have anyone else to proofread their work. Authors: Make an attempt to fix grammar/spelling before you send it to a proofreader (its your story not theirs). Reading it once out loud and fixing errors that you come across is probably the best way to catch your own mistakes before sending it out. Just post and tell me if you want to be on the list.

Blipo Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I can proofread <_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonorhc Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I THINK I can do it. Extreme cases, though, will be dealt with using fire. If it's too poorly-written that I can't even get around the semantics to be able to proofread it, then it's beyond salvation.

List: me (dragoncmd) blipo Didn't proofread that very well, did you? :roll: -Mitch- If you haven't noticed theres a difference between personal writing and formal writing. Obviously I am not going to bother spending time re-reading 1 paragraph five times if its not formal writing. Oh and Zonorhc, I agree that they should make an attempt to fix it before anyone proofreads. I'm not saying that we should just write the story for them. Pm me if you need anything proof-read, I may not be very good, but I am always willing to help.A Seal Clubber is me!A Oxygenarin is me!6*9=42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archimage_a Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 I can make sense of virtually anything so if you cant work something out(or need an idea) then ask me. Can't proofread though(I insert words so it makes sense) http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

dru89 Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Yo. As much as I'm asked to proofread I would love to read someones work. I could probably read them and get back to you within at most a week. :) Dru89's Last.fmDru89's TIF Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
