Decided to put some of my poems on "Fanstory" so that I can improve my writing skills. My punctuation, spelling etc. is not very good and although I try to rectify that, I struggle to remember what words to use. i.e. "to" or "too" "your" or "you're" etc. If anyone has any tips on how I can remember which one's go where, I would very much appreciate your response.

I am sorry if I have not written any reviews for you all lately.
I did try to write some reviews but I think I need to take a break. Mum Died yesterday morning and I thought I could keep going but I can't. I hope you all have a great holiday this year and hope to be back soon.
Brenda.x

| Kermit R. Mullins: I've been on FS for about a month. I've submitted poems to contest and non-contests as well. My curiosity so far is; I get views but no reviews, not sure what's up with that. If I read a poem, I will give it a review. Why does less than 20% of those that view, not review? Am I missing something?

Hi Folks, just wanted to say that there are some amazing people here on Fanstory. I have been a member for just over four months now when I joined didn't have a clue about poetry and formats etc. It was quite daunting at first but some people were quick to help and support me and now I enjoy every moment of it. What a great place to find unselfish helpful friends. Thank you all so much.
