In the past, grammar police are all over the blogosphere. They don't bash you for how you look, but at how you write. Trying-hard bloggers would often have sleepless nights trying to edit, and re-edit their own posts. If content is King, then they made sure their content is not badly written. Some even went to the extent of hiring professional editors. Why not?
For the simpler bloggers like me who didn't dream of stardom, we just write whatever comes to mind. No edit, no headache. Insult to readers? No way. We simply write for ourselves, for our own sanity. Readership is just a bonus.
But sometimes, in my free time, I reread some of my past posts. Why am I not editing these posts? It's embarrassing to admit, so I just smile at my blunders. If these were Facebook posts, maybe I really have to check and recheck my grammar. Good thing I blog in anonymity.
So where are the grammar police nowadays? Maybe they are now into some new social media platforms. I don't miss them anyway.
