I would like to add my [img]graemlins/2cents.gif[/img] DAM I've scanned a few of the other thread where you have participated and have seen very brief posts. I'm hardly perfect about spelling, and generally only write my posts in Word if IW has been crashing frequently or timing out alot, that doesn't mean I don't spot check for the most glaring spelling errors, but that is a relatively minor thing compared to content. Brief posts are fine if you're trying to rush a scene and get to the next area, my next post in the main LOF game will likely be rather brief just to catch up with the time I've lost due to classes and a wife that's always on the compy at home. But if you look at the average post they tend to be longer. I posted some advice on the first page, get under your characters skin, use all 5 senses, when you think of a mountain meadow what does it bring to mind for all senses, by the same token, what about a gas station bathroom, bringing in sensory details can bring vibrancy and a life you never knew existed to your posts, and sometimes (rather frequently for me) my posts write themselves, often away from what I had been trying to get to happen (I still get from A -> B but the route usually changes frequently).
If you want help I would be more than happy to assist in any way I can, I don't bear anyone on the RP forum any malice, and I'm here to be of assistance if I can.
