Myr

I want to thank @Ciaas well for cleaning up this one as this was a joint effort.

Welcome to tenth Grammar Guide! This week we are going to be talking all about FANBOYS! Well, Myr & Cia are working together to talk about conjunctions, but FANBOYS are part of it. We'll get to that shortly. Conjunctions join two parts of a sentence together, and there are four types of conjunctions: Coordinating Conjunctions Coordinating Conjunctions - a conjunction placed between words, phrases, clauses, or sentences of equal rank. There are 7 of them and you can remember them with the mnemonic FANBOYS. When a conjunction joins two independent clauses, it must be preceded by a comma. Ex: I bought lettuce and carrots. Ex: I bought the lettuce, but she bought the carrots. Correlative Conjunctions Correlative Conjunctions - pairs of words that work together to connect two parts of a sentence that hold an equal value or correlate with one another. Some examples: either/or, neither/nor, such/that, both/and, as/as, whether/or, rather/than Ex: I ate neither the lettuce nor the carrots. Subordinating Conjunctions Subordinating Conjunctions - Join an independent or main clause and a dependent clause together, usually to modify the independent clause to provide a reason, result, cause, or purpose. When a sentence starts with a subordinating conjunction, the entire phrase is followed by a comma. The most common words used in subordinating conjunctions, which can be remembered with the acronym I SAW A WABUB are: If, Since, As, When, Although, While, After, Because, Until, Before. Ex: Since you are up, you can eat the lettuce. Conjunctive Adverbs Conjunctive Adverbs join two independent clauses in one sentence to show cause/effect, sequence of events, contrast, or connection. They are preceded with a semicolon and followed by a comma. There are common adverbs used for this purpose such as: however, therefore, nevertheless, besides, after all, finally Ex: Lettuce is healthy for you; however, it is not something I enjoy eating.

That is the exact part I hate.

I hate daylight savings time.

Tl;DR: All readers should rate to their feelings and provide as much as they are able as to why, the less stars they give. Though, 5 with reasons is good too. Also, use the Recommend button! That has lots of reasons why you like the story, without the hassle of having to write something. Longer version: As the branching off in this discussion has shown, there is a great deal of flexibility in how people approach stories. Flat out, everyone should review stories how they feel about them and don't act like an asshole. The star rating is an opinion, like the text added with it. Best case scenario, someone gives you 5 stars and lots of reasons they felt that way. Worst case scenario you get a 1 star and "everything sucks and you're a horrible human being." (We moderate those as that's an personal attack) So, how the system works, as this might be an ah-hah for new people: Story Comments allow you to write up some commentary/review/whatever on a story. They are availability at any time. Story Reviews are only open on complete stories and require a star rating and commentary of some sort in order to post. Something off topic from the original post, but tying into giving feedback to authors... Story Recommendations. They allow readers to give some canned reasons on why they like a story. Not as good as detailed reasons, but lets our more shy readers still say why they like something without the pressure of what to say or how to say it. I'm clearly in the camp of giving as many tools as possible to readers and writers to accommodate as many methods to do so as we can. My personal approach on stars... I don't write 1 star reviews. If I hate something that bad, I don't read it. 2 Star reviews are a case where I had to read it and made it to the end. 3, I liked the story. 4, I really liked the story. 5, I thought the story was outstanding. Note, unlike some others, I tend to see what I should see on grammar, spelling and you have to been really grossly off for me to notice. For Authors, you are going to get everything under the sun. If you get a less than 5 star review and it's not got any feedback in it and you care for the number you got, send the person a PM and ask them what they liked and didn't like. Maybe you can more feedback that way. Don't take it personally, unless it is personal. And if it is a personal attack, report it. That's a moderation issue. For readers, leave as much for the author as you can. As an author, I can say it helps to know what wasn't liked about a story. It's how we learn and get better with our craft. If you like a story, use the recommend system too and select the reasons. I personally find these much more useful than the reviews/review ratings... but it is just one aspect of what I use to find stories. This tells me a hell of a lot more than 1,2,3,4, or 5 stars tells me and what is often a few words (guilty of this myself). Readers find these easier too. We're not all gifted with words and, gosh it can be hard finding the right words to be supportive, push someone towards improvement, not crush their spirit and not discourage them. Congrats to @Mrsgnomie, as that is a snapshot from Boss Nanny, the most recommended story on site with 84 members giving it the thumbs up. This can tell you a lot too. 81 out of 84 members said "Characters". Of course, I'm an Engineering Manager... I look at numbers and correlate data for a living, so my point of view is probably horribly skewed. Does my meandering here help? @Carlos Hazday how do you view the different options? comments/star reviews/recommendations?

Oh goodness... I'm getting scared of the day when we finally get to dangling participles...

Welcome to our ninth week examining Grammar. This week, we are hopping on Prepositions. Preposition - connects a noun or pronoun to another word in the sentence to show the relationship between the two. It often indicates position such as: above, below, over, under, or beneath. Joey went up the stairs. ( up connects went and stairs) = verb and noun connected Sally sat in the corner. (in connects Sally and corner) = two nouns connected Ending Sentences with a Preposition Most of us had this grammar rule smacked into our faces when we were children. It is more frowned upon in formal writing, but it is still allowed. More importantly for story writers, dialog often has sentences ending in prepositions. For example: "Whom are you talking about?" or "Don't look so put upon!" Not Always What they Appear Some prepositional words can be used in other parts of grammar. The word alone does not a preposition make. For example. The pirate flag went up the pole. (Up is a preposition here connecting went and pole) The pirate flag was up. (Up is an adjective here modifying flag) Some Prepositions There are many prepositions. Here are a few: Above, below, up, down, among, as, at, away, between, over, under, through, next, inside, outside, around, onto, unto, via, within, without, and aside. References: Kern, Jara. (2020).

I'll probably settle into that pattern, yes. Monthly, quarterly, an annually. Though that will also depend on response. As with everything else, this sort of thing takes time. Though, much less now that I've got a lot of tools built for pulling information.

Yes, collaborative filtering is used for that as well. the software can make a reasonable guess based on the past history that would at least display similar stories that people might then engage with and react to.
