    agreed, so glad someone pays attention to grammar and spelling besides me... but about the not linking to pics of clothes or places, i would say that as a reader, even if the writer is great at description, some items of clothing or jewelry can only be described with a picture, and it does help me visualize the person. however, general appearance, hair, etc. NO PICS! i agree that you should just describe those things yourself.

    This was rather interesting. I think some sound be broken, though. Meaning: grammar: on thoughts of people, it's wrong often, and in speaking. That's about it, though.
    Oh; shouldn't you say something about avoiding cliches?

    There are good, helpful tips, but to be fair...everyone does things a little differently, and sometimes what's not the "norm" can work for a writer if they can pull it off. However, it does help when you work up to those things - you have to learn and abide by the rules before you've earned the right to break them, after all...

    I don't know where I'm going with this...
