Default Re: What Does Your Writing Say About You?
I absolutely agree with this post! I sometimes do make mistakes when typing, especially as right now in my prep phase I am often typing one-handed while nursing my baby! I hate typos though and I really do not like chat style typing or people who seem to have no grasp of grammar. I wonder if they will truly succeed as a VA, or if they are just careless with their grammar due to this being a less formal arena.

I went to school only about 12 years ago, but I actually learned on a typewriter, not a computer. I think in general in made me more careful, although I am grateful to have access to delete and copy and paste now!!

Thanks for the great post Kathie!

p.s. I keep having to add my name - another thing that bothers me is when people don't sign their posts and yet I keep doing it!
