I think the easiest way would be to have "beta" readers, so not to create an aditional burthen on the site editors.

Hi,
I know that Rameses has already volunteered to help you, but I will also offer my services to help you, if you need me. I just wrote my first EA story, "Daddy's Little Boy" in mid-June and am glad for the feedback I received from those who read it.
Best wishes,
Sailorboy

I once wrote a paper on the effects of 'corporate greed' on the art community. I used the spell checking program that came with my word processing software, using the "Fix All" command, and turned it in without having some one proof read it for me. My professor thought my paper on 'Carport Greed' was very noteworthy and read it to the entire class. That was a good lesson for me. LOL

The volunteers would have to somehow (not sure how yet) demonstrate an extensive knowledge of English grammar. If enough readers express an interest in having errors in the stories they read corrected, then it is something I can definitely look into. Of course input from the authors who write said stories would need to be considered as well.
I, for one, hav
