ACtually, in her case, it's not.  She really is an awful speller.  My
guess is that she uses a spellchecker, and, in that way, catches all the
misspellings that are *not* words, leaving only the ones that are.

I mentioned on poetry workshop that editors don't even bother with stuff
that has a lot of spelling errors in it, even if it's very well written.
I'm not sure she beieved me.  But an editor of a poetry magazine that
posts there confirmed that she refuses to get involved with poems that
have lots of misspellings in it.
