Maybe it’s because I edit for a living, but I hate editing my own blog posts. I write them, why should I also have to edit them? 😢 But I do it. Maybe I don’t do it as well as I do it for my job, but I do it. I think mostly it’s shame that drives it. I don’t want to put something out there, even if its for free on my blog, that isn’t readable. I know that if I see a blog post from someone else that is littered with spelling errors and grammar issues, I judge them. A little bit. Maybe that’s because of my profession, but I can’t help it. And it seems a bit silly for me to judge others when I can’t put forth the effort to make sure I’m crossing all of my T’s and dotting all the I’s.

So, yes, I edit these posts. I hate it though. I’m overly judgmental (why would anyone want to read this nonsense), and I tend to grind my teeth through the entire experience. Some of it is laziness, some of it is wondering why I bother writing at all.

I like to write, I hate to edit. I also like to make YouTube videos, but I hate to edit them. Maybe there’s a commonality there? 🤣

How about you, do you like to edit your blog posts? Or, are you one of those people who never capitalize anything and live life on the edge?
