these days with spell-checkers and online resources understanding the basics shouldn't be too difficult
Even so the number of times I've seen speelug errors in news articles (in the Apple news app! From newspapers!) because the spelling is correct but it's the wrong word has been entertaining, guess it's either getting missed in the proof reading or they're relying too much on the checkers XD
Also I am going to tease you mercilessly because you use apostrophes in plurals a fair bit ;D
typo's
like there, drop that apostrophe XD
I tend to write really long posts
Your posts are pretty comfortable to me XD (but my idea of long seems to be different from most other people's)
I was pretty glad you decided to be a curator, I think you've got a good eye for good stuff. Must be from all that shooting ;D
Some people are perfect; Obviously I'm not, as stated in my post.
I never finished high school so I write at year 9 level. I think the main points come through in my post though.
The internet is full of people willing to point out other people's faults so I assumed someone would find something wrong with my post. You get the prize for being first. Maybe in different circumstances I would have had the chance to gain a better education, but through circumstance I was forced to find my own way.
I've never pitched myself as a good writer or someone whose example others must follow.
Yay I get a prize! I don't usually get prizes XD
Don't feel bad, I know plenty of people who have finished school and compared to them your writing looks top notch. And if it's any further consolation I did finish school but you'd probably never guess it from the way I talk XD (Discord is generally close enough to how I talk, with asynchronous conversations like this one I can pretend I'm much more intelligent than I am).
You don't need to pitch yourself as a good writer, your storytelling skills do that for you. And don't take me teasing you too seriously, I'm a brat :)
I don't feel bad, I'm a reasonably successful person when most of the usual metrics of success are considered and am proud to have acheived that through hard work and effort, somewhat against the odds.
So yeah, there's not much of a prize I'm afraid...You win a 1 week subscription of Woman's Weekly magazine...From 1987. Congrats. 😂
