Hi, is this a safe place for the severely grammatically challenged writer? I enjoy writing, I even entered the 2016 Short Story Competition, but I have no clue where a comma is and is not welcome. Or what the heck a preposition (among other things) is. If I post some of my poetry or short stories on these boards will I be ridiculed? Ignored? Shunned? If my writings make you grind your teeth can you grin and bare them? Oh! Hi!
No-one will be so mean, EE. This is a place to learn, not to be laughed at. Not everyone gets a response, as you can see; I for one don't comment on pieces that really aren't my thing.
If you want to know comma usage and so forth, have a look at my blog, where I try to explain things clearly, at www.wordsunderoneroof.wordpress.com
By the way, welcome to W&A!
