The Sentence Amusement Park
A fantastic article I discovered recently that eloquently sums up some of the more common errors we might make with our sentences.
I used to have a lot of fun on the Twister apparently ;)
...What ride do you favour?
Happy Writing :D

A very interesting piece.
I disagree with the Tunnel of Love to some extent though. The article he chose doesn't need those ands and buts. They don't add anything* to the prose.
Look at me dissing D.H. Lawrence. :shock:
Still, I do think that in creative writing this rule can be regarded as flexible. Just be careful when using.
*In my opinion. |
