So lately I have been trying to get a little extra cash by writing. Mostly by writing book reviews. I signed up here to give it a go. They have a section for you to sign up to do book reviews. Or you can just sign up and talk about everything books in there forums.
Oh, let me make this clear, I am not saying anything bad about this site.
Ok, so anyway, I just heard back from the editors about my first review, and I suck at grammar. So I have decided to try my hardest to learn how to use grammar. Ugh...... so I went to the library and checked out some books.
What I'm reading:
Nitty-Gritty Grammar: A Not-So-Serious Guide to Clear Communication
By Edith H. Fine and Judith P. Josephson
Clean, Well-lighted Sentences: A Guide to Avoiding the Most Common Errors in Grammar and Punctuation
By Janis Bell
I have always been bad at grammar. Even in school I would get really good grades in every subject except English. I was reading a forum and looking at what people suggested on how to improve my grammar. One of the suggests was to read more, haha, (I do read and I have always read a lot), but that has done nothing for my grammar. I was reading this ladies blog, and I love her title.... "I'm not a writer, I'm a reader". Yah, that sums me up!
