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.

I can proofread <_

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.

I'm afraid I don't have time for this, but I must say I'm glad somebody is willing to step up :D

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.

Count me in, I guess.

sure, sounds like somethin to do. count me in :)

I'll join in (if I'm allowed), something to do whilst I take a break from RS.

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)

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. :)
