I've noticed a few consistent grammatical/spelling errors are plaguing your writing.

I also just read you hope to publish some of your work. you'll need to get a handle on the issues for your work to be publishable.

One I've noticed is the misuse of 'to' instead of 'too'. To is a preposition, too is an adj/adv depending on it's use. One trick for remembering the correct usage is when you want to indicate an over-abundance or 'more' of something, use the to/too with an over abundance of or 'more' 'o's';

ie: too little concentration makes it too hard to think.

The first two 'too's' indicate not enough concentration, then an excess of difficulty, respectively. The 'to' is the start of a prepositional phrase indicating an action. In this case it is thinking, it could be 'to pay attention' or 'to listen'.

Another one I seem to see a lot of on Literotica is the incorrect tense of 'to grind'. I've lost track of the number of times I've seen 'grinded' when the correct term is 'ground'.

Let me know if you want to discuss some other issues like this, I'd be glad to help you. (I've needed to contact the admin for some time and get my user account sorted out & I keep forgetting to do it. Maybe needing to not communicate as an 'anon' will help me remember.)
