"...I purposely ignored some grammar rules in order to help mold the story that I wanted it to be."
Cormac McCarthy mostly gets away with this but I still give his books crap for it. When your prose is at his level perhaps you'll be entitled to bend the language. Until then it is just a sign of poor craftsmanship.
I am reminded of a line from Bull Durham --
"Your shower shoes have fungus on them. You'll never make it to the bigs with fungus on your shower shoes. Think classy, you'll be classy. Win twenty in the show, you can let the fungus grow back on your shower shoes and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win twenty in the show, however, it means you're a slob."
