I'm a writer, but that doesn't mean I'm perfect
I'm a writer. I wrote a book about zombies, but that doesn't make me or my writing perfect. I make typos. I misspell things in tweets. I don't use proper grammar and spelling in my blog. It doesn't bother me that I'm not perfect. I'm not trying to be. When I use my blog I'm normally writing about things that I care about, and when I'm tweeting it's mostly to have fun. I don't use spell check everyday and most of my blogs are short (as I'm sure this one will be), but that doesn't mean that I don't take my actual writing seriously. I think of writing as something that will be my career.

Well sometimes it's hard to see our own errors, which is why we are supposed to take a break before editing. We are so excited when it's freshly written that we tend to overlook a lot of things. I like to use the time in between writing and editing as a time to work on something new.
