Well, sure, I suppose I could give it a shot. I'd have to think up something to write of course. I'll toss it to you if I come up with anything of interest I really appreciate the kind offer, by the way!
I thought your mechanics looked alright. Listen, I used to be an editor; what if I gave your stuff a quick once-over before you submitted it? I'm a busy man, so I couldn't give it the royal treatment, but I think I could catch most issues.
Besides, if you make a mistake and a reader points it out, you'll learn something. That's what's important.
Well...to be truthful, just general lack of confidence. I'm sure if I actually put my mind to it I could crank out something decent, but I get timid when I see all the great work on this site. Sort of like a writer's version of stage fright.
Yes, I quite agree about the relative quality, there. But, over three quarters of my readers are there because of "Monsters". Ah well.
By the way, it looks to me like the only thing in the way of you publishing stories here, is mechanical skill. If you like, I can recommend a few books that should help. Is it about punctuation? Sentence structure? A few different things?
Well, I saw Biblical Monsters on the front page. It caught my eye. Once I read over it, you commented about Writing on the Wall. I read it and found it absolutely superb (honestly better than Biblical Monsters, in my opinion), so I'm planning on reading the rest of your work too!.
