I swear, I feel like Charlie from "Flowers For Algernon." Over the past few months I noticed myself making many typos, which I attribute to my never-very-good 1337 typing skills. But in the past few months, I noticed myself making egregious spelling errors of things I know are wrong... upon second look. Things that I never used to do, like misusing their, they're, there, etc. Homonyms are bad enough, but sometimes the errors are astounding, like spelling words (or parts of them) phonetically. I never used to do that. My title here is "El Phonics Monkey" for a reason- my grammar and spelling were perfect when I was in school. Anyways, it's quite honestly getting to the point that it's starting to scare me. My current theory is that my leet skillz eroded because I stopped reading books like I used to, but in the past 6-8 weeks I've read like 10-12 novels. Not always the best way to improve one's writing style, but how often do you find grammar and spelling mistakes in a bestseller. Anwyays, questions, comments, suggestions, or radical drug therapy opinions?
