Hey - you don't write appallingly! your journal really stands out among the vast banality of LJ! And if you think your SPAG is is dreadful, I've seen a lot worse!

Some interesting stuff there! It reminds me of all the things I should read...

Admittedly, I've seen far worse than mine. It doesn't make me feel much prouder though. I've decided to buy a book though that will help me improve, I really would like to be a decent grammatarian.

You write really well. Its the creativity, ideas and words that matter surely. They have editors to deal with grammar and spelling.

Maybe maybe. In any case you know I'm gonna nedd a 5 thousand word essay on what you mean by creativity in this context.

Only 5 thousand? I can do better than that!!

so you are a le-nurd instead of a le-oh-narrd? i've always wondered.
i agree with the underground business.
and moleskine books are lovely but i hate writing in things without lines. i can't do it.
funnily enough, however much you dislike your "appalling" style, whenever i see you have written a post to be seen i really look forward to it. you write with a continuity that most people (including me) don't really dare to express on livejournal. it's honest and you don't code things. i can imagine your life down to details, which i can't really do with other people's.
so well done.

I'm, very defiantly, le-nurd. Though in Sweden they can't manage that pronu´ciation so i've become, against my will Le-oh-narrd to my Swedish assosciates. I've given up trying to correct them.

Ah ha but my Moleskines have lines. You can get them lined, unlined and even with squares, if you look in the right place.

Thank you, that was nicely put. I'm too lazy to code things, I've never really seen the point. Still, yeah, I like the idea of being an honest writer.
