And yes, handing a red pen(or in my case, an editorial rights to fix the spelling) work good, if slow the process a little.Guns_n_Droidshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17410926775231486790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678761812929125529.post-17182187981161308182011-05-20T16:32:58.338-04:002011-05-20T16:32:58.338-04:00@emmett I am willing to bet hard money that it wil...@emmett I am willing to bet hard money that it will work fantastically.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14216103531396452644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1678761812929125529.post-49205917137098531362011-05-20T12:38:40.079-04:002011-05-20T12:38:40.079-04:00I feel your pain an I know it well. I took typing ...I feel your pain an I know it well. I took typing classes and only barely passed. Over two decades later I can now mostly touch type if I'm not thinking about it.<br /><br />I'm still terrible at spelling, always have been and it's always hurt me when I ask someone to read something I've written (thank you spellcheck). Everyone feels the need to tell me when I've misspelled something. It really kills the enthusiasm for the reading. Even when I say "I know I've got spelling errors in here, ignore them for now." people are compelled to tell me when they've hit a misspelled word.<br /><br />I'm going to try handing them a red pen and say "Circle any misspelled words for me." and then ask them if they liked it when they're done. That probably won't work either but it's worth a try.Emmetthttp://www.theartifact.netnoreply@blogger.com
