Also feel free to come by with a question. But remember that even the best editor needs someone else to edit them. We don't object to people coming who are new. Only expect them to work to improve.

Thank you. But I don't want people to spend their time helping me do things I could have figured out. So I'll improve as much as I can before having someone else help me with editing and further improvements. :-)
Good plan, but do drop by if you are sitting there saying "I'm not sure if this para is showing or telling" or when you hit the limits of your ability to self edit. Do your best, be willing to work, and jump on in. Also you can come join in on the critting of other people. If you can pull up a piece in the crit queue after a few others have seen it, you can learn tons by seeing the changes they point out. And if you can read and you can think, you have value as a critter yourself! Or just come to join the insanity.
That insanity sounds mighty tempting. ;-) Again, thank you for the offer. It will just be fun to be a part of a community where people understand my need to write.
