As I mentioned in my last post, I am in the process of writing a book based on my Mother Spanks series. Do you want to hear something funny though?
So far I have 15,000 words written out of a planned 35,000 words, and to get the ball rolling I entered the first 1,500 words into a grammar checking site. Take a guess as to how many words it returned after editing my grammar. One bloody thousand, lol.
Is my writing so bad that a grammar check will remove 33% of my waffling? So if you were to take that as an average for the rest of the story, the 15,000 words written would actually be 10,000 words after it is checked.Β The only difference to that is that the grammar check site will not be editing any of the spanking sections. Those are written by a spanko and no grammar check will be able to replace that.
Now I will say this, I looked at the finished edits to my original piece and I really liked what the grammar check did to it. My story will never be perfect, but it will look a darn site better than the 8th grade writings I normally churn out π
I’m going to be doing quite a bit of writing today, so to keep your interest here is a Kiss Me Kate spanking pic that I found from 2005. I left the bottom part attached to the clipping so that I remember which newspaper I found it in. Pardon me if I imagine a tiny pair of white nylon panties hiding underneath that exposed slip of hers.




I no longer bother with grammar check; you’ll end up sounding like you were born with Artificial Intelligence coming out of your mouth. Sure, getting corrections is fine but getting sucked in in that linguistic perfection crap is dumb, you’ll end up sounding like a robot!
Mick,
To some degree I agree with you, but at the same time I at least want to have a 50/50 mix. The non spanking parts I want to expand and at least look like I’m trying, lol. To be honest, all the grammar check did was take out the fluff, the words are still mine, there’s just less of them π When it comes to the spanking part I won’t be grammar checking it, because a grammar check can’t replace the words of a spanko.
