What a helpful lil' guide! I thoroughly enjoyed this!
I don't even bother with FFN anymore- a... need I say it... 'thick' review like the one you recieved may be a reason why! I've found my home- and it's at OSA. Now, let's put the cheddar away! 
Thanks for a great piece!

I can't believe someone actually wrote that! 
Anyway, thank you for the blond vs. blonde note. Since I have taken French, I knew that French grammer had decided it would be that way, but I didn't know if it was the same for English or not. |

I, also, did not realize that there were different ways to use "blond/blonde". Most of the other stuff, yeah, basic grammar. "Its" as opposed to "it's". "There" for "they're". Or "their". Bad grammar and spelling will stop me cold.
And I smiled at your comment on summaries. "I suck at summaries". Well, if you suck at telling me what the story is about, then you probably suck at telling me the story, also. I cannot believe the things posted elsewhere.
And the reviews are just as bad. While my things may be mediocre, I think that for the most part, they are at least in line spelling and grammar wise. And it really takes so little effort, in the grand scheme of things. Run the check programs. That is what they are there for. And then I read them aloud. Several times. Until teh looks really good to me. LOL. Then off to the beta. (And it tickled me pink to find she missed ONE mistake. Of course, I could not let that lay!)
Another sub-commandment you could add, space between your paragraphs and dialogue lines. I have quit reading stories because it was just too hard to distinguish the breaks. My eyes do not work well with the computer screen as it is, I am not going to try to concentrate on deciphering the story form. Thank you for sharing this. I actually think I will use some of the suggestions. Cannot hurt.
