Hello to all! Hope you’re having a great week 🙂
I’d like to ask your help with a project I’m working on. I’m setting up “hands-on” workshop for an on-line conference. I’ve decided to give everyone a chance to practice what we pre-pubbed writers hear everyone preach.
This is what I’m looking for (if you have time to contribute). I need examples of the following, common errors:
– telling, not showing
– bad grammar/punctuation
– cliches
If you run across any, would you mind emailing them to me? I’d appreciate it – thanks!
Are you looking for examples that we come across in published works? Do you want us to cite the sources or just give the quote?
You mean submit our worst stuff for other to see??? Or submit other published works?
I have plenty of bad writing tucked away, but it would just depress me to put it out there for anyone else but the dust bunnies to see.
I have the same question as the comments before me. In our own work, or in published works?
Oh, good question! Either will work. I don't need the sources. Don't want anyone to think I'm pointing fingers at them! 🙂
You can post them here, or send them to me at kvbwrites(at)gmail(dot)com.
Thanks!
