Author wrote about a world covered in mist and a naval officer that patrolled above it for air pirates and enemy forces. He detects a missing battleship and salvages it.
Author only wrote 1 story because so many self proclaimed critics blasted him every chapter for sentence structure and spelling.

Guess I wont be reading it again since it is now a premier story. I should have thought of that before I posted.

If they wrote just for themselves, then they could have kept on writing.
If they wrote it for others to enjoy, then they should have put some effort into the grammar, spelling and formatting. Or made use of an editor. Or better yet, do both.
Yes, it was a good story, but it would have been so much better if you didn't have to stop and figure out what was meant to have been typed so often.
Most people aren't going to spend their time to struggle their way through something. If authors want people to read their stories, then they need to be easy to read- good grammar, spelling and formatting all count.
As I recall, at least one other author, did a complete search and destroy rewrite against the entire story, finding every typo and wrong word choice. He offered it to AnotherP08. No response.

A real shame.
A good story that could have been great.

Looking at the 'more info' page, it seems all chapters were (relatively) recently updated.
