The importance of correctness

I feel as though I am one who writes with correctness via papers, emails, text messaging, etc., almost as though I was OCD about it. Although I feel writing with correctness, such as using correct punctuation, grammer, and spelling, is important with elementary writers, or any writers for the fact of the matter, I strongly believe that the experience of writing is more important than making sure each little piece of one's own writing is correct the first time around. Especially for those elementary writers who aren't always easy to motivate, correctness should be stressed, but not as much as getting ideas onto paper and expressing a topic with passion.
As Silverman states in his text Rules of Thumb, "too much concern about spelling, punctuation, and grammer can inhibit your writing; too little concern can come between you and your readers" (p. 2). I agree with this statement, and I do believe that without paying attention to correctness of writing, the reader(s) will be affected.
