I just thought this would make a good first post, here's a short story I wrote on deviantart as just a short one shot project about life in an small ex-logging town somewhere in northern Minnesota and how the locals are effected by the mills closing.
Feedback would be much appreciated. Thank you.
Hi! I think you should go back and look at your grammar, there are a few hiccups. Otherwise I think you did good describing how pitiful the milling town and ended it rather thoughtfully.
really, because i thought i already proofread it, well i guess i can take a look and see what you're talking about.
thanks for pointing that out though, grammar is the most important aspect of any form of writing after all.
I always manage to find something I missed with grammar too. I'm always too worried about the content but grammar is important. It can be distracting to the reader and they get pulled away from the story.
I also would suggest adding just a little more description, you have some to set the scene but a few good adjectives can make a reader go form just interested to totally engaged
