Reread

Oct 17, 2004 10:33

Well, I reread all of EoD today. That's a start, anyway. There were some points I was foggy on so I made a timeline and refreshed all the details in my head. I also saw many typos and errors that annoyed the hell out of me but I'm too lazy to fix them right now. Anyway, hopefully I can start timelining a bit more and get part 10 out um, sometime ( Read more... )

Bah. I always reread stuff which I thought was great and awsome and perfect and see loads of typos. I mean, enough to make me feel ashamedd for actually posting in somewhere like that.

It's enough to make me wish I actively had a beta reader although I tend to be too impatient to use them.

I know the feeling. I was working on my fanfic site last night and went through each and every story...and found a lot of stuff that annoyed me. Typos, weird fonts, etc. Mehhh. Way too lazy to fix a lot of them though. ;)

Yay for Part 10! I am addicted and can't wait. :)

I need to go through and fix a lot of EoD later just to ease my peace of mine but more importantly I feel like I need to write chapter 10. The typos and stupid errors can wait.

I'm glad to see you're hard at work on EoD--kind of! :P

I have a similar problem with reading stuff I've written,not typos so much as just thinking that what sounded so good when I was writing it now sounds like some cliched crap that a twelve-year-old could have written. Ugh.

Well, the typos are annoying enough (I wrote 'man street' instead of 'main street' once for instance) but more annoying than that, to me, are the continuity errors. At one point John rips the hem and sleeves off his priest smock and leaves them on a street. Chapters later Tom rips the rest of the smock off him but it's stated that the sleeves couldn't fall off because his hands were tied. Stuff like that infuriates me. I guess it's because it's more tedious to fix than a typo.
