Friday Follies #71 – 3 mistakes that make me go “Arghhh”
Welcome to another edition of Friday Follies! This week the Grammar Cop is particularly steamed over the lack of proofreaders in various media. In online articles, print ads and newspapers, this neglect results in the same darn thing: GOOFS!
A little contest…
Here’s a fun little New Year writing contest by a fellow blogger. Hey, she has a parrot. So she can’t be all bad. Also, her blog is called “The Daily Rejection.” Now if that isn’t endearing, I don’t know what is. Take a look: https://thedailyrejectionblog.com.

Book Progress Report #12
Okay, people. It’s time once again for prayers. Or, for those of the non-praying ilk, crossing fingers.
Friday Follies #69 – 3 articles that make me go “Arghhh”
“3 articles”? Yes, that’s what I said, unlike the usual “3 mistakes.” Why? Because the Grammar Cop found three articles, all in The Suburban, our (in)famous weekly paper, chock-full of errors. Sigh. Here’s the list of winners (losers?) in this week’s bonanza of bloopers.
Friday Follies #68 – Mixed-up mixups that, yes, make me go “Arghhh…”
…gghhhhh!” Okay, heh, sorry, I’m ready now. This week the Grammar Cop deviates a bit from her usual scenario of three-gaffes-and-three-corrections, just for a change. She is soooo tired of seeing the same word confusion over and over again.
Friday Follies #67 – 3 mistakes that make me go “Arghhh”
Greetings, FF fans! The Grammar Cop spent a lot of time online this week, so two out of three of these English-challenged blunders come straight to you from the Internet.
Friday Follies #66 – 3 mistakes that make me go “Arghhh”
Good to see you again, Friday Folliestas! This week the Grammar Cop brings you another trio of terrible boo-boos. And she is sorry she couldn’t find a synonym for “boo-boo” starting with a “t.” Ah well, such is life.
Book Progress Report #11
Hi all! As you will cleverly figure out, this is an update to my last update, which was Book Progress Report #10. If this seems like a never-ending process, that’s because it apparently is. (Insert eye-roll emoji here.)
