Why in the name of all that is good and holy in this world do people post fiction that has had neither revision nor editing for critique?
A. You learn at least as much from analyzing yourself as from having things pointed out to you and suggested.
B. 70% of what I'm going to point out could have been noticed and cleaned up by you with a keen eye, especially any sentences that sound unnatural or garbled.
Every time I even attempt to join a writing community, I just leave. I can't. I'm sorry. No.
"Hi, I know that most of the problems you're going to find are things I already know about and was too lazy to fix, but please give me a large chunk of your time and energy to guess which ones are and aren't in that category because attention makes me feel good."
