Well, I hope so, anyway; I'll be terribly depressed if I'm the only one.
So here is the thing: we all make errors of ignorance in our writing or careers therein, yes? Thought the agent would appreciate receiving the query on perfumed Precious Moments stationery, posted the entire first draft on your LiveJournal, whatever.
What I'm interested to know is, what have you done "wrong" deliberately? As in, "yes, dammit, I wrote a 200,000-word YA novel in second-person present tense with 17 different PoV characters, and I'm not the least bit sorry."
Please, tell me your tales. Bonus points if it actually worked, or involves a tattoo.
