Feeling ashamed – How to use Grammarly to do your grammar checks

Confession time:

For a few months I felt ashamed of my posts because - another blogger pointed out to me that she will not bother to read my blog because of grammatical errors.

That was a low blow.

I mean really, we do spell 'colour' as opposed to 'color' but other than that, I scan my posts and really try to use the easiest English to express myself.

I would never have felt confident to write in English, had I not have a corporate background where we only communicated in English.

But....what if she was right?

I considered the services of a proofreader but could not  afford one at the time.

That is when I noted the advertisement of Grammarly on blogs - and I subscribed.
