You might be asking yourself why I don’t just depend on the built-in spell-check in macOS. I’ve never figured out why she’s moody that way.

If Grammarly is in a good mood, I can sometimes add an unfamiliar word to her dictionary for my account, but sometimes she doesn’t offer me that option even when I’m logged into the service. When I disagree with her, which is usually because it’s a term she doesn’t quite understand, I can click the Dismiss option so the red line goes away. If I agree (and she’s usually right), I only have to click the correction to accept it. I like using Grammarly because a simple hover over a red line reveals the correction Grammarly is suggesting. Once the post is in WordPress on my site, I wait for Grammarly to go through the text and put thick, red underlines on all of my errors. I add in my images with captions and do my final-ish edits.

When I’ve got a first draft complete, I copy the Markdown text over to the awesome MarsEdit. I write my blog posts by starting in Ulysses where I can write on iPad or Mac and still use TextExpander. Grammarly is a freemium service and while I could probably benefit from the premium service, the free tier has a lot of benefits. Its job in life is to watch what you’re typing and look for typos, punctuation mistakes, grammar errors, and even to let you know what tone you’re setting in your writing. I’ve been using the Grammarly plugin for browsers for ages. Grammarly Suggestions Come Up On Hover Over Red Line
