Degree or no degree.

If writing matters to you, you'll take care to do it well regardless of the forum.

 

Uh, dude, I think it's "well spelling or grammar."

 

Tell that to the twittersphere

 

What does "the twittersphere" have to do with someone starting a thread on this site?

 

What do you think is the percentage of people on twitter for whom writing well matters?

 

I believe that would be "for who" on twitter. You ain't gonna waste one of your 140 characters on some fancy-pants 'm.'

 

If I had to do it over again, I'd probably think hard about skipping college entirely.

 

Writing well matters to and, I'm guessing, most other reporters on Twitter. However, the point of Twitter is for short, quick updates. I know plenty of people who will scratch AP style for for numbers and use a "2" rather than "two," but that doesn't mean writing well doesn't matter to them.

 

At least you said that and didn't just fire off an insult.

You're still wrong, though.

 

How you formulate your writing.

 

But there are no character restrictions here.

 

You can still graduate from school in four years and still work for five years by the time you are 27. Just sayin.
