Loving your newsletter and excited to read your book. As an editor, I always notice typos. BUT when the piece of writing is a blog post (often meant to be more freeform, more casual, kinda stream of consciousness, right?), and the voice and tone flow and the words resonate with me, I truly do not care at all about a misspelled word here and there, or a comma splice or whatever. And I’d be willing to bet I’m not the only one. I say ditch the Grammarly :)
Loved this! And also LOVED spotting a typo :) the imperfections are what separates the real from the inauthentic. Grammarly, ChatGPT, AI - so what? Real writers make real errors but real writers also bring spirituality and emotion and that counts for far more than a well written sentence.
Katie....just started reading your newsletter (since your TRN podcast), and love it. Can't believe anyone would read your writings actually looking for typos! I mean, c'mon man, lighten up. And don't be such a stickler for perfection. I guarantee none of your readers read your easy flowing thoughts for the grammer...except some retired, frustrated English teacher...but they're probably not a runner, so we won't worry about them. Carry on as you are

Wonderful, Katie, and thanks for the mention!! Keep on celebrating the beauty of imperfection! Perfectly imperfect as you, and we all, are. :)
