Thank you for taking the time to respond. I couldn't agree more, honestly. My biggest regret with the first volume is that I didn't have access to a program with a grammar check, like MS Word. That said, I have since purchased word, and as a result a lot of grammar in later volumes has been corrected.
I have been going back and fixing errors using word with volume 1, and those edits should be up soon. However, the reality of writing/publishing two full chapters a week makes that editing process slow. It also makes getting rid of all errors very improbable, but I continue to do what I can
As to "using an editor" I'm not sure whether your referring to using a program or a live editor. Currently I use the grammar check in MW Word. If you have a different program you would like to suggest, I'd love to hear your suggestions. If you are referring to using a live editor, I'm afraid writing a free web novel means I don't have much of a budget to work with. If you know of anyone who'd be willing to work for cheap/free (i doubt it, as editing is no easy business...) I would be more than happy to get in touch with them.
With all that said, I do appreciate any and all feedback. I want to improve my story just as much as you probably hope I do. Thanks for taking the time to let me know what you think!
