About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: United States

I'm a Southern gal who loves life, my husband and our family (which, to date, includes 13 grandchildren). I enjoy being with friends and family. But I also like being alone and thinking up plots for future books. I've published two novels, both mysteries, and I'm working on my third. For more about my books, visit me at www.sallyroseveare.com. If you ever hear me say, "I'm bored," please get me to the ER immediately! Paddling my kayak and snapping pictures of the critters I see relaxes me. Beach music has the opposite effect--when I hear those old "doo-wops" I want to dance.

DO YOU SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS?

I nearly choked, hollered "Aaarrrggghhh!" when I saw this ad in a newspaper last week. I blacked out the name of the advertiser, and cropped the picture so the business website would not be seen. Now, the question I ask is:

DO YOU SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH THIS ADVERTISEMENT?
Hint: I'm not talking about the feet.

If you answered "no," then you need to buy a good English grammar book, then study the section on contractions.

Uh, Maybe there's a word left out—Wherever your what is headed? Whatever your what is doing? Or maybe it's that somoenoe doesn't know the difference between a possessive pronoun and a contraction. Double Arrrggghhh!
