no visible indicator in UI when create endpoint in writing_sessions fails

[calebl]

Ran into this when I didn't put story as an optional belongs_to. The endpoint fails silently and the UI doesn't indicate that anything has gone wrong. Then when you submit another paragraph, the update also fails silently. :face_palm:

this is slightly improved with the turbo frames version, but still not great. At least now it doesn't appear to be working. There is a long loading bar and then it goes away when the console error appears. Still nothing in the UI though

what is the solution here? display a message if the app is offline? move to save in local storage before syncing? Full offline support seems like too large an effort. Displaying an offline message would be a good place to start.

still not sure about this. It has never caused an issue for me in all my writing sessions.
