A Light in Darkness (Part VII)
After last week's formatting session, I decided that this week's candle would not be precisely grammatical either. Rather, I am going to address the misuse of words, in particular two pairs of words. The first pair is discrete/discreet.
Hey, gay marriage is another topic altogether!
Both are words. Neither will cause your spell-check to flag it as misspelled. The difficulty is that

Look What Evernight Did in May 2012!

So she hardens her heart and does whatever it takes to make Lord Bartholomew break their betrothal…including tangling with one of the most hardened rakes in London.
Bartholomew is enraged when he finds India in a shady alcove with another man. Enraged

Raven McAllan's "Riding Ryder"
If anyone had told me, a year ago that I'd willingly give up the beach, the surf and ogling the hot bods, I'd have laughed. Bet my boogieboard on them being wrong, even on a temporary basis. Oh fuck, how I'd have lost, big time. Er am I allowed to say fuck on here? Hi, I'm Logan Millar. Aussie, surfer, traveller and all round good guy. I hope. Oh and I'm gay and in love. Anyway, I'd gone to

A Light in the Darkness (Part VI)
Today’s blog is in response to a couple of requests from fellow authors and editors. Today we shine the candle in a new direction: formatting.
Now, there are multiple ways to do many of the things I am going to address, but, for simplicity’s sake, I will focus on one way each. When setting up your document, check the requirements of the place you intend to send this work. If you have no

A Light in the Darkness (Part V)
Over this past week I have noticed this
particular problem coming up and casting its evil shadow across the
grammar-scape. There was only one thing to be done. This week's
grammar blog must address the issue of your/you're.
Yeah, I'm talking to you.

very close in spelling. But
