Throw in some parentheticals and use the psuedonym E.E. Cummings. You'll be a hit.
 
You can't go wrong with hardcore nudity. Oh wait...I was thinking about a movie.

I know this blind guy who's a jet pilot for American Airlines.

To be bluntly candid, your grammar and syntax are maybe 5th grade level. I wouldn't consider reading anything you've written if I had any choice in the matter whatsoever. Sorry, but you really need to improve your basic writing skills first and foremost if you want anyone to realistically enjoy any of the ideas you've put to paper.

At least he won't be confused with ee cummings.

If true, it's an extremely bad habit. You should work to break it immediately. Not just for writing purposes, but it doesn't reflect on you very well.

If I were looking to hire you, you would be rejected the second I saw you were to lazy to use an apostrophe or proper capitalization. If you're to lazy to do that, no telling whatever you would be to lazy to do.

Don't take that as I'm attacking you as, I'm more trying to help you with constructive criticism. Like they say, dress for success. You should also write and speak for success too.
 
That must be why Detroit looks to be going the way of Lehman Brothers.

Really? I bet you're really good at counting toothpicks, up here, too?

Cummings' actually preferred the standard capitalized and punctuated form.

Hey, it's tough to get in there. You gotta open the doors and stuff, and their not klearly market to push and pull.

Yep, but I have a stack of 100's that says everyone in this thread other than the guy "making a book" knows.
 
Im not a guy. Im a girl I go to ITT Tech. I have a 3.18 GPA. Most of what I write is from life experiences. I have been told that everything I write is good enough to be published I was just asking about one thing thanks for the support

I have refrained multiple times from making a statement just like this because I assumed the OP is probably working with English as his second language.

Literally, I've been a click from posting and backed out.

I really hope he isn't "making a book" in English.

Oddly, you asked where you should go next in a story that no one has read.

Whether or not you can relay a compelling tale, or even a request on a public forum, doing it articulately makes all the difference in the world to the responses you'll get. Not that you should be degraded, but the seriousness of the whole topic is left in doubt with these deficiencies.
