I hate commas!

Grammar sucks.

I have just realized that I am really more of a story writer. Love the overall creativity of developing a story or characters and seeing where they go. I have dreams that begin a new story and that story lives out it's own life on the pages in front of me, developing into something new and complete.

My trouble?
Where do the commas go? how do you use the apostrophe correctly? Why can't you start a sentence with But and end it with a preposition. What is a preposition exactly.

I am not completely illiterate. Obviously. But, (HA) I have come to realize I need an editor. Always. What I concentrate on is the overall flow and story and credibility of the characters and dialog. Not where the damn commas go? For all I know they are all on a nice vacation in the Caribbean.

And, that's the way I like it. I hate to read something and concentrate on the science of the English Language. I can not, pick apart my stories and try to see the mistakes. It stripmines the entire peice in my head all over the placement of the comma. Unless I can hear in my head that the reader needs to take a pause for dramatic effect, forget about it.

So, I am hiring. Any editors out there?

I am also curious if that is a common characteristic. Are all you creative souls also good at the mechanics, or are most people one or the other? Left brain, right brain?

Anyway, I prefer things the way they are. (hmm... that can't be good) So, I will go on to dream and write and be who I am. As long as i can see my misgivings and hire, hire, hire. I'm all good.
