Erm... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so brash...
I was just trying to take a complement for once. Normally I'm very dismissive. I know my posts could be a lot better, it's very true. I'm sorry for sounding smug, I'm not usually like that.

NVM? JK?
*major confused face*
You people and your Chat Speak are going to kill me! *exasperated* I'm not one of those people who understands all that crap... *thinks* Pretend I'm like...your parent's age or something. I just don't get slang! *sob* I'm defective that way.
That or you guys are all defective that way! *laughs* I jest of course.
Hm. I'm sure we would do well for the larger story, and I'd feel more inclined to join if more people would do me the same courtesy... (By at least looking over my forum.) Sorry to keep bringing it up, but the lack of activity is starting to depress me enough that it is effecting what enthusiasm I still have left for outside RPs.

Nyagh...maybe I don't wanna' get it. *shakes head with a laugh*
I only use abbreviations once and a while, and those are ones that I learned a long time ago so they don't really count.
I think most chat speak is pointless... That's just me though. It kinda' bugs me.
That and those little "emoticon" things. God I hate those...

Yeah. I mean, well I can see where chat speak is useful. I don't think I use it a heck of a lot though. I know I like to throw in a least a lol every once and while.

Writing takes a lot of practice, just like any other skill. Everyone has the capability to do great things if they lay down the effort. I've been writing seriously for about seven years now, and I'm always finding more things to improve upon.
I used to be a beginner too you know. It just takes dedication and drive.
It also helps to read a lot of books, particularly if you are writing on a specific topic. In the case of the Wings series I've been researching child-abuse and looking through the Bible for inspiration.
For some of my other characters/RPs I ended up reading a lot of vampire/werewolf books and discovered I don't like the style that is most popular for that genre...so I developed my own. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it if you really want to become a stronger writer.
If you'd like any help; don't hesitate to ask. I'm fairly adequate at editing things if you just need to see how something should look or whatever. I can also point out where there are weaknesses or gaps in your posts if needed. It's no real trouble. We could also do a little sample RP. I find that to be effective when just starting out.
Or if that seems like a lot, I can recommend some simple writing guides/exercises for you to browse whenever.

Of course we can try all of them. That's why I offered, silly!
A book I found particularly helpful for writing tips was: Somehow the Magic Works by Terry Brooks, he's one of my favorite authors.
As for the sample RP we can do that in another thread. You can start one, just keep it in this category as we aren't really using it for plot. I'll reply with a modification of your post and show you what is strong and what is weak.
Oh and please link me to your character sheet at the beginning of the thread, and I'll look that over as well. If you want.

I don't really have any friends anymore. The one who I shared that joke with has moved away.
Anyway...
Poor Garet! *sob* Wasn't that just cruel of Brooks to kill him off?!
