I hope it's ok to post these here?

Roaming around the internet, I found some tips that might be helpful to my fellow writers (*g*):

*Remember Commas kill:
Let’s eat Grandma.
Let’s eat, Grandma.

*I before E…
Except when eight feisty neighbors seize a surfeit of weighty heifers…


*Every time you make a typo, the errorists win.

And these are two of my favorite pieces on writing - from our own [livejournal.com profile] hagsrus! (I know I've linked them before - but we do have some new writers this time around who may not have read them) Enjoy!
