I thought that your story was boring and not worthy of remembrance. Coming from a frequent fan fiction reader, I understand that you're trying, but maybe you should stop writing altogether. Better luck next time!

Jeez, why didn't one of you have the guts to tell me I should stop writing long ago? That's seven years of my life I'll never get back!

ETA: just in case it's not clear, I'm not sharing this out of outrage, but amusement. So please enjoy it like I am. :)

Dangling modifier!!! har har har.

I think if a person is going to write to tell someone else to stop writing, s/he might want to learn how to write first.

OK, I don't think I even remember what a dangling modifier is. I'm good with grammar so long as the language isn't English. *g*

A dangling modifier is a sentence such as, "Driving down the road, a tree fell on his car." Taken literally, that would mean that the tree was driving down the road. In this case, the dangling modifier is "Coming from a frequent fan fiction reader...."

This has been your grammar police lesson for the day. :)
