Creator Sense Tingling
Jul. 23rd, 2013 05:45 pm So I've pretty much become all fic read out which is both good and bad because I love reading so much, but I can now use my free time to do some writing instead.
As a result I've started rereading 'His Girl Friday' and I am utterly cringing at some of the mistakes left in the early chapters: missing words, mixed tenses - those little things that sometimes you miss as the writer when you proofread because you know what you're expecting to see in the story and your mind can fill in the blanks for you.
I remember feeling like I improved on my proofreading during the later chapters, but I guess I'll see when I get there. And yes, my intentions are once I've reread the story to actually continue it. Not a new story from me, I know. but we'll see.
