GRAMMAR CHECKER- GRAMMARLY.COM

Hi All,

So I recently released my book Altered Genesis, and wouldn't you know it, after uploading the book and ordering a copy I found some  mistakes that I did not catch before publishing. So I had to spend more time and more money fixing the book to re-upload it again, and send off for more copies. My point is it's always good to have a second peer of eyes going over what you've written. Those eyes can catch all the small mistakes that could cost you big. We sometimes hire an editor to help us with our books, but what if those editors also need eyes watching them.


I was recently told about Grammerly which if you didn't figure by the name is a website that serves a second peer of eyes for you and freelance editors. GREAT!! A site that will catch all those mistakes that you and your editor might overlook. I wanted to share the infographic that was sent to me. The information provided is great for writers, who are looking to hire freelance editors to help make our books a better read.  After visiting their website, I saw that this product is not only used by writers, but also students, business people, bloggers, and people who just want to write better.


So stop byGrammerly and find out what they are all about.

BOOKS AND WEBSITES NEW MOTHERS SHOULD CHECKOUT

You are charged with the responsibility of making sure he/she is feed, cleaned, entertained and every need taken care of. Mind you because of the demands being placed on you by your new little bundle of joy you might feel that you have no time for yourself, and I would say that your right! For the first few months of your baby's life, your life is no longer your own. You sleep when he/she sleeps, you eat when you have time to sneak it in, and you finally take a shower when he/she takes a long nap. But it gets better and its well worth it. Eventually your little bundle starts sleeping thought   All of those demands and sleepless nights were something you thought you were prepared for, but when it finally came down to it you were totally wrong. Gone are helpful nurse's that would take your little one to the nursery when you wanted to take a nap. Gone are the extra...

RACISM AND "THE HEART OF DARKNESS"

Racism and "The Heart of Darkness" This essay was my own personal look at essays that explored racism in particular works and what accomplished authors had to say on the matter. Chinua Achebeā€™s essay ā€œAn Image if Africa: Racism in Conradā€™s Heart of Darknessā€, was written about the apparent racist undertone of Joseph Conradā€™s novel ā€œHeart of Darknessā€. The book takes us on a journey into the Congoā€™s and how Africans are described and treated in the time of European expansion and its thrust for ivory. Achebeā€™s attempts to explain to his readers why he thought the ā€œHeart of Darknessā€ and its author were both racist. Achebe proves his point by quoting parts of the novel that emphasized color over everything and the language that the author uses to describe the African natives was racist and unnecessary. As an example Achebe uses is Conradā€™s description of the African mistress in the novel and her European counterpart. ā€œShe was savage and superb, wild-eyed and magnific...
