Subject: As you can tell by the quality of my work and the amount of typos therein, I never edit my stories, LOL! And I usually post in middle of the night when I can only get one eye open. If I happen to write in the daytime I usually send the story to Hope or Colie or someone else to check it out for me if they're online, but if they're not, I just let fly and post it as it is, I'll revise it later to post on my website if there's a typo or mispelling.
In reply to: usmgrad 's message, "Is it possible to edit astory too much? How do you know when it's "just right"? Do you rely on someone else to read it and give you input? Have you ever posted something just written, no editing? Just looking for ways to improve my writing, thought you all might have some suggestions." on 15:25:26 12/27/07 Thu

  • I only have been writing for 15 months, but in this period I've never interrupt the process. It's a hard work, but there isn't anything else that gives me as much satisfaction. I write in a rush, after I've kept the whole thing in my head for some time, but I pay attention to typos and grammar. In my stories there are some principal events those are planned and in between many things could happen without my preview. After a chapter, I wait some time, then I start re-reading, again and again. Usually I pull out unnecessary words, make soft changes, pay attention to the tone and the rhythm, it's never done, but at some point I decide it's enough anyway.
