Some publisher's guidelines make me wonder. I looked up one today that basically teaches grammar 101. Points include:
# Do not use alot. Alot is not a word. Use a lot.
# Do not confuse its with it is.
In spite of this, this same publisher also says this about their marketing:
"Books that sell over 200 copies in ebook format maybe considered for print."
Okay, "maybe" is an adverb, not to be confused with the conditional verb "may be." Get it right! "E-books may be considered for print" or "E-books are considered for print... maybe."
And these are the people on the inside. -_-

Weed's tips for DA success:
1. You don't have to look at my art; just look at my page!
2. Get all your friends to comment on my work, but have them all say the same thing!
3. Keep your comments under 3 words. Any more is just rude!

Random Thought for the Moment:It's always the virgin Mary -- why can't people see apparitions of, say, Boris Yeltsin?

btw, it's nice to meet you, Tom. Did Amy tell you where we lived, or did you just happen to see us walking home from the bar?

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should get used to the idea.
