This is a super-random collection of especially vivid dreams and little ideas I've had. I needed to get them out of my head because they were just taking up too much space. Hence this book.
Also, there will be some sporadic poems in here. And random...
For those of you who haven't read my biography, I work as an assistant editor, so when people on Wattpad (or just in general, but right now I'm specifically talking about Wattpadders) don't edit what they've written IT DRIVES ME INSANE. Seriously, does nobody know how to use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation? Does nobody proofread what they've written before they publish it? Does nobody take pride in what they're working on?? I can understand a few things here and there, but when there are mistakes in pretty much EVERY PARAGRAPH it just makes it seem like the author is lazy and doesn't care about the quality of the story they're giving their readers.
As much as this irritates me, it's even worse when the writer KNOWS and openly admits that there are all sorts of errors in their story and doesn't fix them. But the ultimate irritation occurs when a reader points out a mistake (without being mean about it) and the author acknowledges the comment with a comment of their own that basically says, "Yeah, you noticed, and now I know about it, but I'm not going to fix it."
I came across this in a Miraculous Ladybug fanfic I was reading recently:
Oops! This image does not follow our content guidelines. To continue publishing, please remove it or upload a different image.
Do you see what I mean??? Totally sloppy and lazy. That's something that would take a whole whopping two seconds to fix.
Please, for Pete's sake, people, take some pride in your work and don't make your readers suffer through poor grammar, spelling, and punctuation if you can help it!
*NOTE: I'm not talking about the people who have errors because English isn't their first language or because they have some kind of learning disability or something. That's totally understandable and I don't really care. But most of you English speakers out there have no excuse. Man up, PROOFREAD before posting, and LISTEN when readers point out mistakes.*
