Editor on several forums (including TheRebelution.com) and a few prominent blogs, Carissa enjoys fixing errors wherever she finds them. Correct spelling, grammar, etc. is very important to her. So, when she noticed that people frequently spelled the word definitely wrong, it distressed her a great deal, and she went about fixing it wherever she could and educating all who were willing to learn. However, as the task was to great for her alone, she has joined forces with the DDA to help right this common error. She also has a history in law enforcement, having taken the responsibility upon herself to keep order among the children during the Parent Enrichment Meetings (PEM). She takes things very seriously, and is very dedicated to educating people on the correct spelling of “definitely”. Together, she says, we can make a difference!
Andrea Powell - Officer and Secretary
Andrea is an experienced editor, having edited a book for a career consultant, as well as editing for an online forum (TheRebelution.com) and several blogs. She is currently taking a two year course in general writing skills, and has been interested in writing her whole life. Andrea noticed the decline of superior spelling skills on the internet, especially pertaining to the word “definitely”, some time ago, yet felt unable to do anything about it on her own. She was thrilled to stumble across the DDA and hopes through their continued efforts a revival of high-quality spelling will occur in the near future. When not adamantly correcting spelling errors, Andrea enjoys quilting, sewing, knitting, spinning, reading, cooking, worship dance and ballet, dreaming about Porsches, and learning new things.
