[quote=Anonymous]I"d just like to share that I'm a horrible speller. I know this about myself and I just concentrate on my writing more. One upside of my spelling inability is that I have a rather large vocabulary so that when I can't spell a word, I can choose another. To make that happen, I often have to vary my sentence structure too. FWIW: I have a doctoral degree, professional job that requires a lot of writing and just got a paper accepted to a peer-reviewed journal, to be published in May and finally, NPR cited one of my blog posts in a story last year. I won't say spelling doesn't matter but it's a surmountable disability. [/quote]
