Help A Brotha Out

I am by no means a good writer. That's partly why I started this blog. I want to get some experience under my belt; hone and develope my skills.

Lately I've been more complacent. I haven't been revising or even rereading what I write. I'm not going to improve that way.

So I ask you, readers, to tear me apart. If you see something wrong, something that looks out of place, awkward, stupid, grammatically incorrect, tell me. Leave me a comment. In fact, send me an e-mail if you'd like – billshaner91@gmail.com. Make it scathing. I need you to keep me in line when I get complacent.

I've also implemented a little reaction meter gadget at the bottom of each post. If it sucks but you don't feel like saying why, just click "needs work" and I'll reread and revise. It wont show me who clicks what, don't worry.

I'm thinking about making writing a profession. So for my own sake, tell me if my writing sucks now before it's too late. You'll only help me in the end. And don't hold back. Any criticism is good criticism, as long as it pertains to my writing. Fire away.

With that in mind, I'm keeping the tone of this blog very conversational and colloquial, so telling me the words I use aren't big enough or my writing lacks formality goes against what I'm trying to do here.

Help me out, gang.
