No trouble with this one, but I'm ALWAYS stuffing up affect and effect O.o

Those two are millipede's legs to me (as in, once I start thinking about it, I lose the ability to use them right. Horribly obscure reference! Sorry), so I just use the one that pops in my head and it seems to work. Most of my grammar stuff I know by feel rather than education so I mostly go with what looks right...which in the case of this word never goes right!

Thank god for prone. He was prone, he is prone, he will be prone... : ) x

Yes! That's exactly it, I'm fine if I'm writing/typing along, but if I stop to think if that's the right one or not, I'm stuck churning it over and over, lol. Like you I write by feel, using what's right for the story than what is by the rules.

Oh god, I'm saving that one for sure!

Thought I should share as I figured it's not just me that has a problem with this stuff : ) x

Huh, this one I don't have a problem with, but then I do with the use of 'In' and 'On' that should be fairly simple to understand but for some reason it's Math to me (and I'm NOT good at math.)

The mind boggles.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

It's strange how we get...idk...blindspots with some bits of language. I know this has been explained to me a hundred times but it just never goes in!

Yup. Math : ) xx

I think ill be able to hit twenty k. On this. It looks like it could be more but im gonna shave it down to the bobe and muscle.

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

So you already got started?

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

On which? x

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

Your bb

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Nothing wrong with more. I'm half way through and at 30k already. Sometimes they're just long xx

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

Wow. Yeah, im not trying to go for that. Some things dont need explaining. And what isnt said or detailed can be just as effective or even more so. The thing is its changed. Its grown a mind of its own

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

Theres a bit more horror to it. I dont need to detail it. Maybe i just dont want to. My best friend`s son died at the hands of a sexual sadist. Two actually. The stepfather and then the foster father. He was raped and tortured. He was nine years old. He died on the 23rd of December and i cant stop thinking about it. The fbi is involved. It might even become a supreme court thing. CPS failed his son

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

So i cant get it out of my head. He wanted me to read the medical notes and its giving me nightmares. He was TORTURED. He was beaten to the point his brain swelled up and they had to drill a hole in his brain to relieve the pressure. His genitals were bruised and abraded and he had rectal tears and scars and ligature scars on his wrists and ankles. He had a total of 300 wounds on his body

[skeletncloset.livejournal.com]

It's my best friend's son yet i cant let it go...and i cant imagine what he has to deal with. I want to kill, but not only that i want to torture. The two of us do. The medical notes kill me. The doctors and nurses were devastated and calling the authorities. There were other children too. The mother and fozter mother were in on it too

Who *doesn't* have problems with this? It drives me crazy.

[alexisjane.livejournal.com]

Right! Thank god for this : ) x
