		<description>Just use Microsoft Word for writing your posts, I also have the habit of using the lower case I, however this is auto corrected by Microsoft Word. </description>

		<description>I do agree with this.  I referred your site yesterday because of some information that I found on it.  Having your information just right will keep readers coming back by not giving them an excuse not to.  Of course, it&#039;s only one component though.  In the same vein, commentators should review their comments too! :D I&#039;m guilty of a few typos here and there. </description>

		<description>@Dave, 
Hehe! No man. I actually use the same words in most of the places. I don&#039;t go for different words. For ex: I say &quot;cool&quot; a hell lot of times. I should try using some other word in the place of COOL. </description>

		<description>I&#039;m impressed that you took the time to think about the issue and comment, Kevin.  It seems that many bloggers today will not aknowledge mistakes ... we all make them, the difference is what we do about them.

The real reason to avoid the improper capitalization ... and some very common errors I&#039;ve seen on &quot;big name&quot; blogs ... not knowing how to use their, there and they&#039;re ... not understanding the difference between advice and advise ... not knowing mute from moot, etc. is not the error itself, ut the fact that these minor errors cause readers to &quot;stumble&quot; ... the brain unconscionably stops its flow to puzzle out the the  writer really meant to type ... and this causes folks to read less.  If you blog, it seems obvious you want people to read the words, so it&#039;s well worth taking the time to make them flow smoothly. Few of use will ever attain perfecion, but acknowledging the need to proofread is the first and most important step.

@==&gt; Celebrienne ... there&#039;s a hidden benefit in reviewing old posts .. they become updated an &quot;new&quot; again.  Darren Rowse and several others have written on the fact that old posts on a blog can be a hidden gold mine.

@==&gt; Ram ... your comment made me laugh ... isn&#039;t that human nature in a nutshell ... like the old boy behind the mule in his field who was aksed why he dind&#039;t by a tractor ... &quot;Sonny, I already don&#039;t farm half as good as I know how&quot; ;-)

@ ==&gt; Anyone who writes in English as a second language ... thanks for sharing ... and do not apologize.  I notice writersoften breaking their own flow to apologize for their English not being good.  Yet their English skills are orders of magnitudes better than most of us could ever produce in the native language.  Just write your best, learn and improve and keep writing ... in my view there&#039;s no need to apologize for anything you cna do twice as well as I can.</description>

		<description>I have been trying to improve my writing as well. I know that this is an area where I need a lot of improvement. I have the same problem with the I i issue. I think this is an issue with people that do a ton of typing or something. maybe it is just us lazy ones  :???: I hadn&#039;t actually thought about asking my readers for critique but it seems like a really good way to connect with them and also to improve. I also check out daily writing tips which has been helping lately. well thanks again for the great post. I am really liking your blog.

later all and have a &lt;a href=&quot;http://cmansmoneypages.blogspot.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;profitable  productive blogging&lt;/a&gt; day</description>

		<description>Kevin, your English is good. Using Dictionary is a good to improve English. Everything comes by practice. You have to write, write and write. Daily Writing Tips is really a very cool blog. It teaches you all the basics and some good stuff. 
 
And BTW, my English is also not good. I know what can be done to improve English. But the thing is that I don&#039;t implement them. </description>

		<description>Kevin, great you want to improve your writing skills. Thumbs up!  :mrgreen:  
 
What I like to do when I don&#039;t feel like blogging something new, is to go through older posts and correct all the mistakes I can find there. I always feel so ashamed because of my bad writing when I go back like 3 or 5 months. But that&#039;s why I read DWT. I&#039;m trying to improve :grin: </description>

		<description>I usually read my posts a few times after writing them to catch stupid mistakes and reword a few phrases. 
 
I think my biggest weakness when writing for my blog is that my writing can be &quot;top heavy&quot;. I will start out with very detailed information, then wrap it up fairly quickly. I have been trying to combat this by writing rough outlines before actually writing the content. </description>

		<description>After writing a post, I usually read it again - twice. Then walk away for 10 minutes and then read it again - twice. And then publish it and read it again - twice. It takes forever, but it means that I&#039;m always pretty confident that it&#039;s just the way I want it and error-free. Most of the time... </description>
