This morning while actively participating in some marketing over at the Firestorm Forum, I came across the ideal post for our blog today

You aren’t aware of this, but I really sweat the typos, grammar, punctuation, etc., while creating and posting a new blog post. Ask Scott how often I read and re-read and tweak and change. Luckily, he’s a patient guy, and also believes we need to post our “best work.”

And, nothing can back me up as much as the blog post I found today. The headline (or link name) This Kid Is Lucky To Be Alive really scared me at first. I was anticipating (horribly) the worst.

Well I won’t spoil this for you, but you’ll have a new appreciation for why it’s so important to read, double and triple check, your writing online or offline LOL!

Yes, we are encouraged to write at a 4th grade level, but proofreading will never go out of style

Can you imagine what that newspaper publisher was thinking the next day when it hit the stands?! Heads must have rolled LOL!
