Get out your red pens, people, because here comes a very disgruntled teacher!
I admit, writing can be tough work. You do your research, brainstorm, and maybe even make an outline before typing up your blog, essay, book, or whatever. The thing is even after all that planning, your first type up is going to have errors. And guess who notices them? Me! Me and all the other keeners surfing the Internet who pay attention to detail. There’s nothing worse than reading a blog with fabulous content and running into all sorts of mistakes.
No matter how good the content, unless you fix up the mechanics, I’m going to be less inclined to read the rest of your post. I might even close out of it. Why? Because proper writing mechanics creates authenticity.
