All can be fixed in rewrite! hehe.I saw that in another thread. Anyway, what I meant was that if you get hung up on those things you lose your story. In personal experience, I have to write it all out before I even look at grammar and mechanics, tenses and word choice or I could spent all day correcting everything in only one paragraph or a couple of sentences, and then I get frustrated about not writing my story or lose track of the story altogether. A writer losing her story is never fun and may be even more frustrating than the problems she spent all day trying to fix. ( I'm using the feminine pronouns because I'm female. Male writers can replace them with masculine pronouns.) Because I don't pay attention to those things while I'm writing, I may still miss them after I go back to proofread, so I'm lucky to have a good friend who isn't afraid to tell me when I'm wrong. I have nothing published, but I wouldn't call myself a new writer either. I don't even remember a time when I called myself a new writer
