Misspelling words is not uncommon for anyone doing any writing work. In fact, you�d have to be a serious freak of sorts if you can pen an entire thousand words of copy without committing a single wrong spelling.
As a matter of fact, most writers always deal with error writings and they just got to ignore it. It is really true that even expert writers do the same thing. Why? It is because they need to focus more with the flow of their ideas.
Ideas that are very unique in its own way will come rarely in a person�s mind. It can be hard to attain it if you force yourself to think widely. But, when certain ideas about your topic start flowing out of your head, then you�ve got to be very attentive in writing it all down.
I�m pretty much sure that you will commit a lot of writing mistakes as you catch your ideas that keep on running in your head. As I said, these errors are not a big deal. Leave it all for once. That�s for once as you write your first draft.
As soon as you are finish with this step, then you can now jump into correcting your writing mistakes. It can be a hard thing on your part to correct them by just spotting these errors in any parts of your text but in order for you to make your work a lot easier, try reading your text over and over again. Reading helps you to detect these writing errors manually and rewrite them if needed.
There are a lot of techniques that a certain writer, either a beginner or an expert, needs to know. These techniques will help them to write well and effectively if they will learn how to apply them in to writing.
That�s What Grammar Checkers Are For
Sure, grammar checking software is supposed to catch all of those mistakes. However, with so many possible word combinations, a lot of awful typos can actually manage to slip through the cracks. A term like �public meeting� should easily get flagged, while �pubic meeting� will probably manage to stay (because both public and meeting are valid dictionary words).
Manual Spellcheck
You should be able to catch a mistake like the above by poring through the copy, proofing it word by word to turn up similar orthographic mishaps. It�s a tedious job, but it�s one you have to do. Even if you work with an editor who could catch the errant usage, fixing the spelling should leave them more time to work substantively on your copy, rather than devote it to dealing with things you can correct yourself.
Learning Spellcheck
If you�ve been shopping around for a good spellchecker, try to find one whose �database� of corrections you can add to. That way, when you catch yourself committing mistakes as the above (�pubic meeting�), you can simply instruct it to change the term to (�public meeting�), instead. It�s not a perfect system, but doing so can land you plenty of convenience for the future.
