[QUOTE="Look_a_Unicorn, post: 1273269, member: 11886"] Hi Felikeries. I hope you don't think I'm being deliberately rude or trollish, but I started to read your Story Hour... but had to stop after a few paragraphs. I've tried my hand at a Story Hour & failed miserably, so I know how hard it can be, but I think I'm still within my area of expertise as a reader to strongly suggest that you review your posts in the 3 following areas: Spelling- a spell checker will help you out here, so it shouldn't take too long. Add to the Dictionary any words/names for your campaign so they don't keep getting caught by it. (Oh- also, make sure the dictionary is set to UK-English, not US. It's the original and the best ;). ) Grammar- I'm not sure if grammar is the right word, but I just mean reading each sentence to make sure it's making sense, then read it in the context of the sentence before it to make sure you're not jumping from one idea to another- it's very easy for a reader to get lost when that happens. Layout- Split ideas/contexts into paragraphs, start each spoken sentence on a new line (unless it's more dramatic to keep them on the one, it's a device used to indicate short-sharp conversation.) I hope this helps, and if English is a second language for you then all I'll say is that you're doing better at learning it than I would be with yours, and practice makes perfect! Thanks for sharing your story [/QUOTE]
