I'm a paid freelance writer yet I have terrible grammar, spelling and punctuation. There are technical writers and then there are those of us who rely on our editors. The technical people are disssmisive of us, and we don't care because it's too much fun to pretend we can't remember how many S's are in dismissive.That said, Lynne Truss made me want to at least try to tell my stories with a thought to how the reader might experience my overuse of commas and dashes. Plus, it has stickers in it that my two year old really liked.It's a great book, and helped me remember some basics without rolling my eyes
