Writing help
A free app: Grammarly. A lot of us are not native English speakers and I am finding it a helpful app. It will underline spelling and grammar mistakes. Just remember that is is not always right -especially if you use complex sentence structures. Here is the link
Remember The Most Dangerous Writing App. You set the time - 5 min - and start typing. Don’t stop!!! It will destroy what you wrote if you stop for more than 3 seconds - and backspace does not count as writing on the app. If you are prone to stop and think - this app forces you to keep going. You can make corrections after the 5 minutes are over.
A timer. Egg timer is a free tool you can use on your desktop to set a time. This is useful for our freewrites or if you want to work in blocks of time and then take a break. Here is the link
I found this app through @emwalker. Use it regularly and it will help you type faster and more accurately. [10 fast fingers](https://10fastfingers.com/typing-test/english
When I hear about busy street, there is no other thing that come to my mind than the beautiful street of Lagos. Have you heard about Lagos maybe mentioned in the news but let me give you a brief breakdown about it.
Lagos sometimes was like a settlement place, it was a also a market long ago. That's the origin which actually affect the present. Every street in Lagos closer to a big bus stop is directly a market, every corner, every little space you see and think it just a space but to lagosian it is money. You will see things like people paying for a 6foot long and 4 foot wide just to put there market down.
Lagos also as the highest normal of population in Nigeria, funniest part is it is not the biggest by land mass still yet everyone around the world want to come to Lagos for business because that is what it is none for. Lagos is the only city in Africa that midnight sometimes look like day time. In the street of Lagos you buy a hot food not rice , spag or but swallow at around 1am.
The street of Lagos actually gets busy as early as 4am in the morning and there is this saying about Lagos, if you come to Lagos and you don't get wise, then you will forever be a fool. I will keep the rest details for another day.
So have a nice day
