A Light in the Darkness XIII
For today's blog, we are going back to an older topic, that is, words that are easily confused with one another. These pairs have been pestering me lately, and that means they get a blog thrown at them. The first of our pestering pairs is “loose” and “lose”. I almost never actually see “lose” written anywhere anymore, and it hurts me deeply. “Lose” is a perfectly fine word. It is not

A Light in the Darkness XII
Today's entry deals with point-of-view, oftentimes called POV. I will not be detailing the shades of gradation between various types of third-person POVs, at least not today. I will make do with a broad differentiation between close third and omniscient third, and move on from there.
But first things first. First person narrative is all about “I” and “me”. I wandered through the forest,

Hear Doris RAWR! "Tiger Scars" is here!
Hello everyone! I'm delighted to be back here with my newest release Tiger Scars, book two in my Club Ink series. I never set out to write any of my series. They tend to creep up on me. This one is no exception. When I wrote book one, Riding Her Tiger, I noticed the tension between Ink and the bar maid, Cherie. Something going on there…

A Light in the Darkness XI
Last week I discussed The Evil. This week I will be explaining – and combating – The Evil's only slightly less evil cousin, the run-on sentence.
STFU.
A run-on sentence is two or more sentences running together with no punctuation between them. This would seem to be an easily noticed error, but apparently it is not. The thing that makes this particular error so devious is the addition of a

Malia wants him to be innocent but senses he’s holding something back. She vows not to let her

A Light in the Darkness X
This week's post concerns The Evil. The Evil has been a particular enemy of mine for many years, and The Evil might actually be ultimately responsible for the existence of this grammar blog. That is how much I hate The Evil. The Evil is the comma splice.
Oh. That's it?
I am sorry. I had to force back the bile in my mouth. The Evil is a scourge of the grammarscape, and it torments me. A

We are happy to have Evernight's own Kassanna here at Boundless as the Sea today discussing her new release, Tell Me, Touch Me, Feel Me, book three in her Club Lexx series!

have her by any means necessary,
even if it meant overcoming her
secrets and cutting off his family.
Luther Lexington didn’t question why his brother sent for him, but knowing John, he was sure he had his reasons.
