Picky about punctuation? I suppose I am. After all, nothing can stop me from reading a story faster than a misplaced (or missing) apostrophe.
Thus, I wonder if I may be too picky for the amateur work that is presented at SOL. Then I read stories such as are in my favorites list and I wonder why everyone doesn't take a clue from them and really bear down on not making such errors?
Of course, I've read over some of my stuff and found horrid errors that are going to remain for a while. It isn't that they don't embarrass me, so much as I have limited access to the web and use it for reading and other things rather than editing my previous posts. However if anyone wants a copy of my files to play with (as far as editing goes)I'll respond with an e-mail address and send them along.
Oh, no promises that I'll accept all your recommendations, but they will get serious consideration!
