CORRECTNESS
I am definitely one of those writers who fear of making a mistake like spelling, punctuation, and grammar. When I was reading the commonly confused words, I realized that I did not know the difference between "affect" and "effect", I believe I have been using them wrong all a long. I also never knew when to use "whose". In the section called, One Word or Two?, I recalled back to 5Th grade when my teacher made a huge detail about "a lot" always being 2 words, it nice that my teacher made this detail making it easy in the long run! I never thought spelling has been trouble some for me, although grammar, using the wrong words at times is what I am weak at when writing. I am really glad that I bought this book looking and glimpsing through it, this is definitely a book I am going to keep for the rest of my life.
