Sorry I have slacked off on updating this every day like I said I would. No time!
I know what you mean about the typos, Darby. Those are tough because, like you said, spellcheck doesn't always catch them (if it's a case of "he" instead of "her" or just leaving out a word, like your examples), and even if you really proofread it, your eyes still might fill in the missing stuff because YOU know what you meant to say. That's why it is nice to have a beta read it; it's easier to catch mistakes in someone else's work than in in your own. I always proofread my chapters before posting, but even then, I still find typos in them later, or someone else does LOL.
Carter-Orange:
That happens to me too, I'll read it and think it looks OK, then I realise I've missed a word.
mare:
aww poor Steph lol
Realise is one of those words we were talking about earlier.
realize here, realise in Europe
English is a weird beast.
A-RokzStalker:
Oh yeah, or the Canadian vs. US spellings. Sometimes it really bothers me, but I've been dealing with it better recently. haha
