× Yes, in fact, me and my husband put up a small printing business which includes crafting with paper.
✓ Yes, in fact, my husband and I set up a small printing business that includes crafting with paper.
Use subject pronoun 'I' rather than object form 'me' when the pronoun is part of the subject. Also, place the other person before 'I' as a polite convention. 'Put up' is informal; 'set up' is more natural here. Use 'that' for a defining relative clause and 'includes' agrees with 'business'.
× So we sometimes make an invitation for weddings, birthdays, baptisms and the likes.
✓ So we sometimes make invitations for weddings, birthdays, baptisms and the like.
Use plural 'invitations' to match 'sometimes' and multiple occasions. 'The likes' is incorrect; use the fixed expression 'the like' to mean 'similar things.' This fixes number agreement and idiomatic usage.
× During high school I can clearly remember folding the pages in my notebooks every time a new semester or a new chapter comes in.
✓ During high school I clearly remember folding the pages in my notebooks every time a new semester or a new chapter came in.
The action refers to past habitual events, so use past tense 'came' not present 'comes.' Also 'can' is unnecessary with 'remember' for past recollection; 'I clearly remember' is sufficient.
× Yes, and to be honest, I am more comfortable in writing physical letters.
✓ Yes, and to be honest, I am more comfortable writing physical letters.
After 'comfortable' use the gerund without a preposition: 'comfortable writing,' not 'comfortable in writing.' Removing 'in' makes the phrase idiomatic.
× I think I am able to express myself more in writing than speaking.
✓ I think I am able to express myself more in writing than in speaking.
For clear comparison, parallel structure is needed: 'in writing' and 'in speaking' or simply 'in writing than speaking.' Adding 'in' before 'speaking' makes the comparison parallel and clearer.
× I think more people are still keeping handwritten letters today because I think it is more memorable.
✓ I think more people are still keeping handwritten letters today because I think they are more memorable.
The pronoun must agree with plural 'letters,' so use 'they' instead of 'it.' Also 'keeping' is acceptable here; correction focuses on pronoun agreement.
× It has more meaning to it and every time you want to go back to Memorine, it's just right there.
✓ It has more meaning to it and every time you want to go back to memories, it's just right there.
'Memorine' appears to be a typo or incorrect word; 'memories' fits the context. Use lowercase unless a proper noun. This corrects the word choice and capitalization.
× You have easy access
✓ You have easy access to them.
The sentence is incomplete and missing an object. Add 'to them' (referring to letters or memories) to complete the thought and make the sentence grammatically correct.
× Sometimes, but I think it is more convenient for me to take notes on my phone these days unlike having a pen and paper because I always have my phone with me and it's just a few types away.
✓ Sometimes, but I think it is more convenient for me to take notes on my phone these days rather than carrying a pen and paper because I always have my phone with me and it's just a few taps away.
Use 'rather than' for contrast instead of 'unlike.' 'Carrying' is the correct verb for having pen and paper with you. 'Types' is incorrect; the intended word is 'taps.' This fixes preposition/contrast usage, verb choice, and word choice.
