What Irks Me About Writing

Posted on by under Free Writes

It annoys me when people get caught up in small errors in speech and writing. If someone leaves out an apostrophe or uses the wrong “your” someone is bound to notice and say something. I don’t understand why people do this. If I can understand the message someone is trying to convey why should I care if they don’t follow all of the rules of the English Language?
