You see, this is exactly what I meant by not really wanting to know the do's and dont's!
Yikes.
I'm making all of my stuff up. There, I said it. I have no classes, no club, no list, no teacher to give me the low down on what is done and what is frowned on.
I read a lot. And then I just...throw stuff at the screen. Anybody else?
I can get behind the idea that you write freely, then go back and edit ruthlessly...but man! Now that I've seen your list, Lynn, and the other things pointed out on this thread, I'm afraid to go back and look at my stories. Might have to lay down, take two aspirin, imagine I'm in London...
Who makes these rules? Let's get to the bottom of this, find out who Oz is....And, I'd be interested to know, who ignores them entirely?
Ok, I vented a little. It's a bit disconcerting to realize how little I know about something I really love.
Back to our thread in progress- going to find those aspirin. This, btw, is why I never get started when the gigantic 'grammar' thread shows up around here...intimidates me!
