Increasingly, it appears that usage is garnering support in lexicographical (yes, I had to look that up) circles. However, I will certainly address it at some point, because there is a general distinction.

And while grammarians may not get their panties in too tight a knot over it, we shouldn’t just throw up our hands in abject surrender.

Less/fewer is my personal grammar gripe at the moment. My weakness is comma usage. I feel that I use too many of them.

I went on a wonderful grammar tangent this lunchtime, starting from Tami’s “[Nouns][Verb]” post, above. A discussion on “that” and “which” sounds like a good read, I’ve been wondering about that recently. I’ll definitely check out your writing resources section Thankyou!

Of particular note is John McIntyre’s blogroll, which I started perusing on Thursday. It led me off into many delightful tangents, not the least of which was reading an excellent–nay; outstanding–treatment of the “that” vs. “which” issue I referred to in my reply to Iris.

Thanks again for coming back, and I hope your return trips are equally rewarding going forward!

Keep in mind that I am a rank amateur (and you may ascribe any meaning you wish to the adjective). I probably have learned just enough to be quite dangerous. However, I am also quite motivated to be an effective editor. (Whether the authors agree, of course, is yet to be determined.)

On the positive side, especially with fiction–as I’ve hinted before–many of the “thou shalt nots” are, in common usage, “thou shalt consider, but not necessarily be bound by, alternatives.” In other words, for example, “that” vs. “which” is not quite so hard and fast as many may understand it.

In any event, I am looking forward, with great anticipation, to finally getting a chance to read some of the NaNo manuscripts!

Congratulations on your newly-realised direction! How exciting! I’m looking forward to reading more writing posts, although I also like reading your general thoughts and “internetty” posts

I am very glad you found what your calling is, Kestrel. On an egoistic note, of course, that is because I am one of those people whose novel will benefit from your expertise. But, by and large, I think the moral of your “Eureka!” moment is that there is no such thing as “too late”. It is never too late to find passion in your life and to embark on something new, even if it is the passion for the rules of grammar .

And I will be very eagerly awaiting your articles on how to prepare a novel for undergoing the rigorous and painful process of making sense of all the mess, also known as editing. I most assuredly need all the advice I can get .
