EDIT: One of the biggest issues I have when writing IC posts is keeping the writing format uniform. Everything I've written, homework or otherwise, was written almost entirely in the first person, present tense. (In contrast to third person, past tense, which has become a sort of unspoken rule for most RPs) I try my hardest to write in the same format as everyone else, but when I get inspired, I tend to forget to follow this format, and as a result, I end up with a mess of verb tenses. I've been chastised on many occasions for this, since I'm accidentally jumping to and from different tenses throughout the post.

Yeah, that tends to get people when starting out. After awhile though you'll get used to it. I did! :P

Personally? I don't spellcheck my posts, lol. So there's always a mistake or two crammed inside every one of 'em. I haven't re-read over Itaki's even, it was just a second draft after I made a post that didn't feel as good to me as the one I posted. I bet there's some mistakes in there somewhere! And if not? Well, I got really damn lucky.
