One that should be entered is the difference between the adjective “good” and the adverb “well.” That is one of my pet peeves when people misuse them. I have been known to scream out loud in class when one of my students mixed them up. There are a lot more that should be on that list, but it’s a start! Please keep us informed. I’m enjoying your blog.

  I have so very much to learn when it comes to perfecting my writing skills, but I do so love literature and it is worth the work that one has to put into it.
  Thank you for stopping by and I’m certain that I will learn quite a bit from your blogging.
