| One nightstand |
I'm considering participating in the A to Z Blog Challenge in April. That's a stupid thought, since I have trouble with meeting my goal of publishing to the blog once per week.
I even made notes (alphabetically, of course), using a theme of the most common errors I see while proofreading and editing. My hope is that the posts would help those who need it and provide a little humor.
For example, for C, or day three, I'd discuss compound words. Like nightstand. Sentence fragments come much later in the month.
One night stand. One nightstand. If you search Craigslist for a table to put by the bed, trust me, you want to spell it correctly. If you’re actually looking for a one night stand and spell it wrong, you’ll be so disappointed.
And W! Or is that S for singular, or P for plural? Oh, my lands! Nobody mixes up man and men, but many mix up women and woman. Why, oh why? Is an extra syllable just too much?
Thanks, Ros, from Pushing the Bruise, for making me write this. You know, to see if it still hurts. It does.
OMG, this is fabulous! I was going to make a comment about the racy photo you included! Wow! You'll be in good company with A-to-Z! Huzzah!
ReplyDeleteStill pondering A to Z, but thanks for encouraging me to post something!
DeleteDying. "But, one night stand is all I need. Please. Can't you fix me up just this once?" Dying and laughing. Yes, the blogging ---> daily blogging thing is mind boggling, but then once you find a theme, it seems easy. Enjoyed your post much.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Your daily blogging is impressive.
DeleteYour mind fascinates and boggles mine, and I love it! You have the best wit, the best way to twist things around. I envy it and I adore it.
ReplyDeleteThanks much, Crystal. It boggles me too, but usually not in a good way!
DeleteI have used Craigslist to search for many things, but never for one night stands. Come to think of it, not for nightstands either! Thanks for making me laugh. I look forward to reading your A to Z posts!
ReplyDeleteMan, ya gotta be careful what you look for on Craigslist. Thanks Denise!
