Typo queen no more
I am looking for a special home for a short story I wrote, those who have read it said its a good tale. I love to write about that stuff, and I guess it that is why it got such a warm reception. Of course, it had grammar mistakes, but at least there are no typos. I was known as the typo queen locally, and those people cannot believe that I am actually making a living writing these days.
I just smile and say it is the magic of word. Actually, the spell checker is my Godsend. When I was learning the MS office suite back in 1998, I loved it and excelled at it, but I didn’t use it for paid writing. There are lots of the grammar and spelling setting you must use when you are being paid to write. However I so wish I had paid attention way back in 7th or 8th grade when grammar was being taught, because I would be two steps ahead of things now.
