Hi everybody. New Member here. I made a complete ass of myself on another website recently by posting a document in a thread with a word count to rival the King James Bible. This time I’m playing it cool. Tomorrow I will post the first sentence (minus punctuation-you guys can fill in the commas/stops) and I expect you to get them all in the right places. Isn't that how this site works? Seriously, guys I read and write and go to work. Everything else in my life is superfluous. If I could slip work into the superfluous category, my life would be complete. (Hallelujah, I hear you cry. So would we all sucker!) I will read your work and give you honest, constructive feedback in the hope of furthering your writing goals. If I ever offend you, then I assure you it was not my intention and I apologize in advance. What I give in critiques I wish to receive back. Good, honest, constructive feedback, with added “pull no punches, be brutal.” I might sound like a masochist but I genuinely believe that the truly gifted among us have rite of passage on the Shangri-La bus to the publishing houses and their subsequent utopian dreams. The rest of us can get better and cast a speculative grappling hook at the bumper of that bus as it goes by. Only, though, when the rest of us tell us sometimes, that we are either , good, bad or just plain ugly.

Welcome to the site, I can't help with punctuation I'm allergic to it. Looking forward to seeing your posts. ~BL~
