Yes, I suck at spelling.<\/p>\n
There – it\u2019s out in the open. I also suck at grammar, plot creation, and character descriptions. Yesterday, a kind man (or woman) posted a comment to my site. In essence, I was instructed to proof my blog entries before posting them on my blog.<\/p>\n
Over the past several years, I have been on a quest to publish some of my short stories. I\u2019ve been up front and honest on the \u201cquality\u201d of my prose. It suffered greatly from numerous defects. That\u2019s why I\u2019ve spent a few years editing.<\/p>\n
These same defects have plagued my online posts. My blog has always been a catch all to ideas, rants, humor that crossed my mind. I didn\u2019t spend hours proofing them or making sure they would be approved by my 11th<\/sup> grade English teacher. It was my mind\u2019s dumping ground. Over the years, my blog has been evolving just like my writing-language skills. Hopefully, in the years to come, the quality of my posts will increase like the quality of my writing.<\/p>\n However, a person will always suck at the learning phase of anything they do. I\u2019ve learn so much over the past several years in the art of proofing, writing, and editing. It\u2019s a process \u2013 that process takes time to master. I cleaned up my site a few weeks ago but left a few of the more interesting posts. Those post are several years old and have errors \u2013 no doubt about it.<\/p>\n Those posts – are history my markers. They let me know how much progress I\u2019ve made \u2013 if any.<\/p>\n Now, on the other side \u2013 our culture likes to point out mistakes. Sometimes, it\u2019s just as easy to point out a positive too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yes, I suck at spelling. There – it\u2019s out in the open.
