Part of me cheers Jeff Deck and Benjamin Henson for going on The Great Typo Hunt, chronicled in their new book of the same name. Who hasn’t seen one of those “12 Items or Less” signs at the grocery store and wanted to shout, “FEWER! IT SHOULD BE FEWER!” to everyone in line? [...]
Writing is something that’s been in my blood as far back as I can remember. My mother still has a copy of the little magazine my 2nd grade class put together back in 1974 that each of the students contributed a poem to; mine was called “Joy is Green”, and so far as anyone knows, [...]
