The tragic love story between writers and spelling...

Me: I want to be an author and write many books.. Also me: *can’t spell Wednesday correctly on the first try*

I can spend hours weaving sentences together, crafting worlds, and building complex characters… and still stare at the word "necessary" like it personally wronged me.

Yes, I know the difference between "your" and "you’re." Yes, I still type “definately” on the first try every single time. *silent sob*

Well i tell myself that writing is about ideas, not perfect spelling (yes it is). That’s what spellcheck is for. (And sometimes even spellcheck just looks at me like, girl, I have no idea what you meant here.)

So if you’re a writer who occasionally panics over words like "accommodation" , welcome to the club.

Conan Gray’s new ablum SLAPS but if I listen to him say ‘I wish I were Heather’ one more time, the future english major in me is going to spontaneously combust at the shocking display of poor grammar.

Bad Google!

If you're ever having a bad day, just know that I couldn't remember the past tense of the word evolve so I said evoluted in place of it.

NEW YORKER ALAS

“A circular drive with a fountain in the middle led up to a bone-white sanctuary that sat eight hundred...At the middle of everything was an eight-sided six-story corporate cathedral..., which sat six thousand people.”

No. No, it didn’t. Think: sat is the past tense of sit. Would you say that the cathedral sits six thousand people? No. No, you wouldn’t. (I hope.)

I think she means that it seated that many people, because that’s how many people it seats.

OML, SO

Just saw a post about Damian and Jason being in YJ3. I've been burned before, so I flipped over to IMDb to see if I could find anything out at all.

Now, I may be a writer, but I have taken no typing classes at all. So I use the Caps Lock key when I want to capitalize something. (Also, I am a grammar freak, so I do proper everything.)

So I looked down, typed it in, looked up, and was treated to...
