Red thought that we should have a place where people can work to improve their writing--particularly in RPs. Here you may feel free to submit your work--be it RP samples, poems, or some other style of creavtive writing--to have it edited, or to ask people's opinions. Since I'm the Grammar Nazi, he's asked me to overlook things.
However, if you have some constructive criticism (keyword being CONSTRUCTIVE), or a few encouraging words for your fellow guild members, feel free to say what you think. ^_^
Just be respectful...yes, Holy and Red--that includes you.

Any type. I'll set up different threads for RP work and poetry and such. It's still a bit of a work in progress. ^_^

^_^ I'm glad you think so.
By the way, if anyone has any ideas for threads (or "classes", if you prefer) in this school, please share them.

Finally you got your own subforum too. I may come by with some help and some poems that you can use, do you mind? I'm glad someone finally decided to help improve the grammar in the RPs.

xd All right Red, we'll give you help. *pats on head*
Side-note: Spelling isn't grammar. Yes, spelling is looked at when correcting grammar, but it's not everything.
An example of this might be Spellcheck.
You can spellcheck the following sentence--
She went too they're farm.
Spellcheck will say that sentence is fine. Why? Because every word in that sentence is spelled correctly. Hand in that sentence to any English teacher, and you'll get points off. Spellcheck can't detect the improper use of homonyms.
She went to their farm.
That sort of thing. There's a good chance that you knew the difference between spelling and grammar already, but I figured that since you brought it up, I'd point that out to anyone who didn't know.
Your grammar is rather good Kiyubi--especially considering the fact that lots of people slack off here just because they're online and what they write here doesn't count as a grade. But no matter how good you are at grammar and spelling, it's still easy to make typos and stupid little mistakes that you just forgot about. Luna has good grammar. I went into her poem and edited out an extra "p" that she typed into a word by accident. That's the sort of thing we look out for here. 3nodding ^_^

^_^ I know what you mean. I've made a million errors on this site, but I usually reread everything that I write and go back and edit what I catch. 3nodding
"Teh" instead of "The" is a really common one. And I've seen entire words demented just because of a mis-tapped key or two.
