Op, you are right. My younger sister and I had a discussion on this same topic some days ago. Gone are those days when we use to boast of the number of books we have read and when I say books I meant novels both indigenous and foreign. I could still remember my primary school days how I use to devour any novel that comes my way. My siblings and I will be reading a particular novel with each of us holding the different pages or leaves we are on to. In my primary school days we spend most of our break periods in the library and we borrowed those litterature texts we couldn't finish before the end of break. I still believe that use of GSM and social media has greatly affected our nowadays kids.
I remember those good old days. *smiles* We just wanted to devour them.

OP...Thanks for the piece. Before I hardly spot the difference between the two words.

I always take it that "I'm" is the contraction of "Am" meanwhile I don't that there's a vast difference between the two words
You are welcome I'm happy you learnt something

I'm tired of reading that. It's a major pet peeve for me. Thankfully, it doesn't annoy me anymore.

Welcome
Literature › Stop Writing ‘am’. It Is ”I'm’ by Divepen1(mod):
I was going to hibernate as I landed on this hard bed when I tried to snoop at some pages and blogs with hope that I would snooze off as I go through the articles and stories.
That was when I noticed that many people have started replacing the phrase I am with 'am'.
Please am is a verb which is used after the personal pronoun ' I'; there by, making the combination a noun phrase.
Am is an auxiliary verb for God sake and not you.
Or a character in a story.
I'm sure many have written it in exams and interviews.

I'm enjoining you to stop.
Many started using it online, saying it's just in the informal setting but it's affecting them now.
Correct it while you still can
