To teach this, I always tell my students: You lie down. You get laid.

hehe…I always told my students “People lay. Objects get laid.”

i have to google this every fuckin’ time. I don’t know why I can’t get the rules to stick on this silly little thing.

I really can’t see why this is so difficult, but it obviously is because I see it in almost all the fanfics I read.  PLEASE people, for my sanity, GET IT RIGHT!

How do you get a beta/Brit picker? I'm currently writing my first ever fic, and grammar isn't my best friend,

Hi!

Sorry for the delay in my reply.

First off, congrats on starting your first ever fic! I hope it is going swimmingly and that you are enjoying yourself.

Grammar is a tricky beast for a lot of new writers/fic’ers, and getting a SPAG (spelling and grammar) beta can help a lot. You can set about forming a an editing/writing relationship in a couple of ways:

  • Post on tumblr/other forums that you are looking for a beta/second reader. Explain your situation, ask nicely, and see what happens.
  • Join a writing group (like the Antidiogenes club). Loads of writers plotting and scheming and (yes) sometimes writing. Asking for a second set of eyes in exchange for reading through somebody else’s work is one way to do it (even if grammar isn’t your thing, maybe details/description is, or plot, or even action, and that’s something that you can bring to someone else’s work).
  • Approach someone who has the quality you need help with - in this case, impeccable grammar - and ask them if they wouldn’t mind taking a look. The worst that can happen is that they say ‘No,’ and usually that’s because they are busy and not because they are mean (if it’s because they are mean, then they aren’t worth your time anyway

You could also luck into it the way I did - I started posting a multi-chapter story, and one of my regular readers offered her services, and now I don’t know how I got along without her, since she’s made entirely of insight and damn fine ideas…

Now, bear in mind that while you look/hope for a beta, you can certainly begin learning more about grammar. You can:

  • Read a lot, and pay attention to sentence construction and the way grammar changes the flow and shape of what’s been written.
  • Write out a few of your favourite passages (by hand, if that makes things stick for you!)
  • Rewrite those passages with all new words, for example:
The envelope was thick and heavy, made of yellowish parchment, and the address was written in emerald-green ink. There was no stamp. (Harry Potter)
The tree was/stood tall and proud, lit by sunlight, and the canopy seemed capped by boundless sky. There were no birds. (rough sample - if I edited this, the last sentence would change to: Yet there were no birds…something like that. Playing with construction comes in editing, mostly)

If anyone else feels like adding to this post in terms of tips, tricks, or links, feel free.

Hope this helps - and good luck!

What service do you use to print your books? Are there hardcover options? Thanks! You're amazing!

I hope you don’t mind that I publish this, since others might like to see as well.

These are some of the places I’ve used to print books so far. I’m not really particularly recommending any specific place, I think anyone looking to print a book should look into many places and choose what works for them. You can write and ask them if they’ll do a certain thing, since most of them don’t list their complete services (such as hardcover). These blurbs are based on my own experiences and might vary for you.

RA Comics Direct

Pros: super fast, super responsive, low runs, pretty reasonable pricing, does a lot of file set up for you at no charge

Cons: doesn’t print explicit/nsfw content, print quality is good for black and white or sketch collections but not artbooks, pretty limited print selection

Books printed with them: Wreck, all SFW doodlebooks, ABCs with Ben, Red Pants doodlebook

MCRL Printing

Pros: HELLA quality (uses offset printing process vs digital) good for artbooks, good pricing (last time I used them), reasonably manufacture time, a lot of print options if you know what to ask for

Cons: very slow communications, slow shipping, printed in China (bad for local business), requires files be set up at pdf in Indesign or similar program, doesn’t print nsfw content, requires very high runs

Books printed with them: 7 Patch Problem

SIPS Comics

Pros: prints nsfw content, low runs

Cons: pricing is high, charges more for nsfw content vs normal content, slow communication and slow manufacturing, print quality is grainy even for digital

Books printed with them: NSFW Doodlebook

DoujinPress

Pros: prints nsfw content, really good communication, they handle a lot of setup, pretty good quality, does low runs, fast manufacturing options

Cons: pricing is pretty high, some quality issues (i used a matte cover with black and so every book was very obviously scuffed in the print process)

Books printed with them: All the Days (30 day challenge collection)

Transcontinental (note, I’m only part of the way through the process with them and so this isn’t a full evaluation)

Pros: prints nsfw content, judging from other books I’ve bought from them they have really good quality, very good pricing, reasonable low runs (about 100)

Cons: fairly slow communications, difficult for someone inexperienced to understand a lot of their communications/directions, some kind of totally wack shipping cost that I’ve still negotiating with them, a lot of forms you have to fill out

Books printed with them: Banquet (Hannibal)

Here are also some other places that have been recommended to me but I haven’t used:

Print Ninja (does hardcover, foil, cheap but high run)

DocuCopies (cheap)

Hope that helps :))
