BRUCE B.

As a frequent social media content creator and storyteller (some true), I have used the free version of Grammarly for about a year. If I depended on my writing skills as a means of financial support, I am sure I would upgrade to a premium account. For my use, the Grammarly free edition is about all I need. I do get hints on actual grammar use such as run-on sentences, proper spelling, punctuation, and how my posts appear to others who have read my content. I have not found another free program or app that can compete with Grammarly. It sits quietly in the background and allows me to complete my entire post or email without the loss of my thought process. After I am satisfied with my content, I go back and look at all the suggestions offered by Grammarly, and almost always accept the recommendations offered by the program. I often wonder about the effectiveness of the premium thanks to the embedded notices but as a senior citizen on a limited budget, I just can not justify the cost.
