I'll read it when I get the chance. Here's a hint though... there really is NO EXCUSE for a whole bunch of misspelled words and bad grammar in a story. If you REALLY care about a story and want people to enjoy it, you should slow down, be more careful, and not be so lazy about writing it that you don't take the time to try to spell better and use better grammar. Reading back over over it to fix typos is one thing you could do to improve since you freely admit they exist. I read mine over until my eyes bleed because I care about what I put out there and expect others to read. You should never have to apologize for bad grammar or spelling. Have you ever seen that in an author's note in a novel you've read? That's what they have proof readers for. Sorry, but that is my two cents and I tossed it in there since this IS a site themed for writing and trying to improve our skills. Thanks for posting your links!

I will try better and harder. This ain't no excuse.It's just that I hurry through everything because I hate to keep my readers waiting.It makes me feel very guilty for some reason... Oh well . I still have my story families i use for this story. I will read through and see what I can't fix...

Well, I know what you mean about keeping your readers waiting. I am in sort of a slump right now, and those who are following my story have been waiting a LONG time for my next chapter. Yes I feel bad about it, but when I do put a chapter up, I think they can wait a bit longer for me to make sure it's presentable before I throw it at them. All any of us can do is try harder to do better so.. good on you for making an attempt! *pats you on back*
