Interesting story but MY GOD! What ever happened to paragraphs, proper spelling and spacing?

It's all run together. To damn hard to read.

Two thumbs down!

The story (http://www.eunuch.org/Alpha/B/ea_1541big_ball.htm) was posted in 2001 when about any story was being accepted. It would not make it past the moderators today. If there are no paragraph breaks, a story will be rejected.

Although I don't wish to discourage any feedback, it always helps if those giving it provide a link to the story, as I have here.

I don't want to discourage first time authors, but if they've ever read a story, they would know not to post a story as one long paragraph; and a spell checker is included in about every word processor.

I just read one of my old stories, and although I'm embarrassed by how bad it is, I can see that my writing has improved. Stories don't have to be perfect to be posted here, but they can't be a total mess, either.
