IMO equals In My opinion

I have half a page done for the prolouge, and that's all I'm going to do for it. I got every thing I wanted done with it.

I am about 3 paragraphs in on chapter 1 and have hit an are that is requiring me to think things through.

Ill tell you more later when I'm on my computer and can type faster.

What do you mean PC doesn't count as a social life?!?!

Trust me don't go back, and don't stop, that is what happen to "This is Home" I stopped, and now I have done a lot a thinking about it, and it has now evolved into a totally different story, but IMO one with a better plot.

Don't go back till your done that way you'll see how much you improve.

And why must you leave!?!?

And I also wanted to tell you that your story is the first one that I've seen to mention poke poo. And it was mentioned in a cleaver way as well.

Thanks very much. ^_^ I'm glad you liked it.

Also the ? ! , . Are easy to get to so, I met use them but not often.

All right, I'm finally done with my C.E.R.T. training. Now I can focus more time on my story.

And just in case you are wondering when I'm on my phone or not, look for commas or any other symbols other than the period.

When I first got my phone I liked it intill I got it on the internet and that's when I stoped liking it.

Ive thought about trying to type my story on it but it is a Little hard to get use too maybe once I get use to it. And the more I type the better I get

Blackberry pearl, and before you go and say that I'm rich, i'm not, I found it on ebay, and I hated my old phone, so I bought it, I had a little bit of money saved up, and I though what the hell, why not.

Ha ha that's funny. I write all my main ideas down in a note book. Off topic I sent this message on my phone.

Yeah, but then I have to type it later, and well IDK, I'll try it again.

No prob. Good luck with your next reviews.

Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that there's always going to be better writers out there than you (and me, for that matter). Still, you hit the nail on the head when it comes to reviewing -- that you do it not so much to point out the errors of someone's work but instead to give them feedback on how they're doing. It's good that you're trying to be helpful because, yeah, that's the point. So, don't put yourself down too much about that.

Still, my advice would be to write your review in a word processor, much in the same way the author would write his story in one. That way, you can not only save your review to let yourself digest the story and come up with something else to say about it, but you can also spell check and proofread it as well. Yeah, it's a bit extra work, and you've got more of a time frame than the author does (because if you don't work quickly, the story could die on you or get updated with more chapters than you've got on file), but it helps, particularly to avoid odd errors in your own writing while you're attempting to point out someone else's. The last thing you want, after all, is to sound like you don't know what you're talking about because then the author won't take you seriously.

Um, when you're talking about grammar, first thing you'll want to know is it's spelled with an A. I don't mean to sound a bit picky, but it always bugs me to see people doing grammar reviews, only to have the first thing they do be misspell the word itself. It gives the rest of what you're saying a somewhat hypocritical tone.

I bet you that I hit the backspace button more than another key on the whole keyboarded.

Well see how long the chapters are once I start typing, I just though a of a neat idea to end the story, which requires that the prologue I had in mind be removed so I started typing on chapter 1.

anywhere from 7 to 20 pages long.

Thats okay, it was going to be about 7 chapters in before my character was even going to get his Pokemon.

It would have probably been close to 100 chapters long before I would have been done. Now hopefully around 30.

Mine is too, well at first it was going to be, I'm shorted it way down, and now am thinking about using what I took out for a squeal.

I've got my whole story planed out (too a point) I have all the plot twists planed, the end, and other key points. Now I just have to till in the gaps.

I'm indecisive, and then once I do decide on something, I tend to over describe it, so I have to sit there and say to my self "thats too much, it is going to make the story boring."
