I am crawling out of my editing hole for just a moment to vent. Or is it to bring praise... hm...
I recently had a reader that changed my life for the better! Thanks to them, I found a glorious free tool that I did not know existed or would be so great.
That glorious thing is Read Aloud in word. I never knew Word could read back my work to me. And gosh darn it, do I find errors so much easier. It is a blessing! If you have Word App it is in the review tab. *In case no one else knew about it like me.*
Thanks to it, I have noticed I love to eat words. It also allows me to catch run-on sentences with ease. I also noticed I sometimes forget to separate current inner thoughts from my paragraphs, making it seem like I break tenses!
While I can read a story twenty times, I can't find them on my own. They sound fine in my head. And worse yet my mind adds the missing words I eat.
Yet hearing it being read allows me to be like... wtf was I thinking? How did I not notice that??? My mind is truly my worst enemy.
Does this happen to anyone else? Or is my mind rotten...
