And lastly, thank you for bearing with me and reading my posts- with bad grammar and sometimes bad writing and all!!
When I write I just go with the flow, then I begin the process of editing. I first spell check, then I re-read and correct, re-read again and make more corrections, and continue this process until I feel it is ready to be published. But no matter how many times I do this, there are always things that could be made better.
Unfortunately for me, I don't find these errors until I walk away from a post and revisit it a few days later.
Then KABLOOWEY!!!!!!
What I thought was a great piece of writing originally, now reads like something a fourth grader threw together!! It amazes me how many corrections I will make to a post when I review them a few days later. I am embarrassed! So again, so sorry for you all to have to read these posts in their draft form!
I'm not saying that you have to go back to each post a few days later to read the "polished" version, I just wanted to let you know that as an english/elementary ed major in college, I am well aware of the writing process and I do my best to fix it!! Maybe as time goes on and I continue my writing I will discover a more effective process, but in the mean time.....
Thanks for understanding!!!

Oh, I can totally relate.
ReplyDeleteI submit a post and then realize "shit! this word shouldn't be here!", and submit again.
i guess this is killing the readers that have me in their RSS Feeders. They have to see the same post about 3 times...
:)
ReplyDeleteI type really fast too! No worries!
You are so not alone on this one. I do that same thing.
ReplyDeleteStopped by from SITS to day hi and welcome.
I have the same problem. I get so excited about a post and then go back to read it and am so embarrassed. For some reason today I pulled up one of my very first ones to reread. so bad, I couldn't even believe it was mine.
ReplyDeleteI always go back and edit!
