As to specific problems with your writing, I believe using periods to
indicate the end of one sentence and the start of the next would be the
best improvement you could make.

Just to make it clear, "periods" are also known as "full stops". Which
isn't something they teach in the UK, I had to find that out myself.

I'm gonna lay out some steps you can take to help with your posting, if
you want to by downloading a new Internet browser called Firefox and an
inbuilt spell checking programme. It is all free and I assure you
perfectly safe for the computer and works pretty much in the same way as
Internet Explorer:

Go to: http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/
Click on the green box that says "Firefox 3 Free Download".
A box will pop up, select "Save" and it will save a programme to your
computer that you will install to set up the browser.

Once Firefox is running, go to this address to install a dictionary:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3366
And click "Download Now". Firefox will pop up a little box asking if you
want to install the add-on, say yes, it will do it then ask to restart the
browser.

Now whenever you type a message, all the words spelt wrong will be
underlined in red. You can right-click on these words and a list will
appear of words you might mean. I am assuming you are using a PC and not
a Mac, if this is not so, it's near enough the same way to do it.

I'm not terribly old, but when I was your age, I didn't read much and I
used MSN Messenger alot, which taught me to type fast, but the spelling
came later. It really is worth doing though, jugglers are a very
supportive group of people and will help you out almost anytime. Internet
users aren't always as supportive, so it gets a bit confusing.

Really hope this helps you out and it'll make a great difference. We all
wish you the best.
