BE MY EDITOR AND GET CREDIT
FOR CORRECTING ME
!

Since I first started writing for different publications, including my own, I have always had a problem with proofing my own stuff. It is a scientific fact, that the brain sees what it thinks is correct, even if it is not...especially when you wrote it (at least that is what I told my high school English teacher).

The fact is...I am doing this for fun, and I have my own style. I use too damn many commas, I tend to put "quotes" on all sorts of phrases incorrectly to make my point (mostly sarcasm) and do all sorts of other things that drive REAL book-learned English majors and editors nuts.

HOWEVER...as I am admitting to my problem...I am happy to give you credit when I am in error...or the spell checker doesn't catch something.

E-mail me with the correction...and if I choose to take your advice (I may ignore you when it comes to commas and quotes), I will add you to my list of SPECIAL ONLINE EDITORS!

I know it's not much...but I don't make a dime with this thing...so fame will have to do!
