Spelling, punctuation, and grammar - the bane of many a writer's existence. They're so basic and so complicated, and they can make the difference between a good story and a great story. Why do there have to be so many rules? Why are there so many exceptions to the rules? Why do we even care?

Answers: English is weird. And we are writers.

In this book, I will attempt to demystify the mystifying and share what I've learned about this often painful subject, along with other tips and tricks I've picked up along my writing journey. I am by no means an expert, but hopefully, I can help a little. And if something I say is wrong or could be stated better, by all means, let me know. We're all stuck in this ocean of mismatched letters and punctuation marks together.

Credit for the title goes to @Agustwinter, who has vowed to conquer the monster and get a higher score. I believe in you!

idk i get bored easily and i love to write when i get bored so this is what comes out of my boredom. it may not get updated often because i have #adhd and i will have phases where i forget that this exists and then post tons and tons of them, its my hyperfixation. but like i do like to try my best and update alot. there may be quite a few spelling mistakes or bad grammar but i'm dyslexic so i struggle sometimes with my wording and my spelling. i am also very british so if any word sounds british it probably is because i don't really know how american's speak, even though they don't really speak any different to british people lmao anyways i'm gonna stop rambling and just hope that you enjoy these :)
