Oh Dear...
After several weeks off I started back onto my novel. While working away, suddenly Microsoft Word gave me a pop-up box I had never seen before. It informed me that there were so many grammatical and spelling errors in my document that it could no longer show them all, but if I wanted to check my spelling or grammar I would from now on have to run my own manual check.
!!!!!!!
Has this ever happened to anyone else in the history of Microsoft word before!
I like to think it's because I've been so wonderful in actually writing 65,394 words, and that of course when a document gets big these things happen.
I like to think it's because I'm writing Fantasy so Microsoft doesn't recognise all the cool people and place names that I've brilliantly invented..
I'm hoping it's because I can't spell, and I've never been able to spell. I think spelling is a completely over-rated talent in this new world of wonderful spell correcting technology- and bad spelling doesn't make someone a bad writer.
But bad grammar does. I'm hoping it's not because I'm a really bad writer.
But it did make me laugh.
Love B
