Answer 1

You cannot ask if it is good writing while simultaneously requesting people ignore the errors since the mechanics (grammar, spelling, punctuation) largely determine the quality of the writing.



If you asked if it was a good premise/story line instead, then ignoring the mechanical issues would be appropriate.



With that said, (and barring the mechanical issues), this *still* is poor quality writing due to:



- Poor formatting (Don't post a wall of text. Dialogue for each speaker is formatted into separate paragraphs, etc)

- Poor or non-existent descriptive language (you provoke no imagery in your limited descriptions)

- Lack of character development

- Contrived dialogue (unrealistic)

- Tense changes (from past to present then back and forth some more)

- Random switch from 3rd person narrative tense to first person

- Boring, predictable plot line

- No substance to the writing.



So no, this isn't yet very good creative writing. But everything can be polished. So learn the craft of creative writing and edit this. Good luck

Answer 2

That's an oxymoron question. "Is this good writing, but ignore everything wrong with it." Sure, anything is good writing if you just ignore all the stuff that's wrong with it!



Okay, let me tell you something. You might think you can separate spelling and grammar from the skill of the writer, but you're wrong. Good writing is spelling and grammar. That's the basics of good writing. Don't work those, and you will never be a good writer. Period.

Answer 3

You have a good story, but the writing is not so good. It makes things difficult for the reader, and no one likes that. Put some effort into editing and I'm sure you'll be fine.

Answer 4

"Good writing" doesn't require ignoring errors. That alone makes it bad. The number of errors merely confirms it. If we're supposed to struggle through what you didn't bother struggling through, no, really not good writing at all.

Answer 5

Four errors within the first seven words.



I'm sorry; I can ignore the odd error, but when they're that frequent, I simply can't read any further.

Answer 6

Don't tell me to ignore the errors. You fix them.
