Also, remember if you are submiting a story you should read it over carefully before you send it in. If you spot any spelling or grammatical errors, change it! It's hard enough to critique a story, but to critique a story that has many spelling errors or has many sentence structure errors is worse.
What is especially sad is that 90 percent of all story problems are not problems because the idea behind the story is bad, but because the story lacks any grammatical organization. As a writer you must develop a sound foundation with grammar. If this is a problem for you, then buy all the grammar books you can lay your hands on. I consider myself a somewhat decent writer, but I have at least nine grammar/composition books at home and I consult them quite frequently.
Writing is all about getting your voice out. How can you get your voice out if you cannot even organize your thoughts through grammar?

I totally agree- thank god you said something. I hate when posts make no sense or you have to read them twice to understand them. It's worst when you detect a hint of a constructive criticism and you can't make it out!
My use of the word 'homie' was due to the actual message (which, as you probably remember, had the sort of grammar you expert to see in a text message). I wouldnh't normally actually use it (mainly cos it sounds stupid ).l
I just want everyone to know that I am TRYING TO WORK ON MY SPELLING!!! I agree with the rule though, chat speak in exess gets really, really annoying.
