Top 6 comma problems (infographic)

Do you ever find that as you are writing your stories, or even a letter, you get stuck on where to put a comma, or you wonder if you don’t even need one? I know I get tripped up sometimes.

Below is a helpful infographic that might be useful to you. I hope you can see it okay.  If you need to enlarge it, left click on it and a magnifying glass should pop up with a + symbol in it. Click again to enlarge. When you want to get out of it you can simply hit your back arrow to bring you back to this page … where you can leave a comment. 😉  hint hint

A video for you by John Greene

Today I want to show you a video by John Greene. He is the author who wrote Fault in Our Stars that was published in January 2012. I have the book but haven’t read it yet, and … I might have seen the movie.

Anyway, I found this video that I thought you’d enjoy. He is quite hilarious in his presentation.

Have you read his book (or any of his books) or watched the movie? Does he make you feel better about your own writing?

Congratulations, Sue! You will soon receive the book of your choice – Secrets & Lies – from Janet. Thank you for participating. 🙂

Again, thank you to everyone who visited, left a comment, and sent your friends here, too.  If you go to my BUY THE BOOK page you can find direct links to where Janet’s books are sold.  Easy peasy for you. 🙂

Thank you for reading, and for adding sparkle to my day, and … Creative Musings!  🙂  ♥

 

Notice to my blog friends

For most of today I am away from any Internet connection. (I’ll be alright, it’s only a few hours. 😉 ) Anyone who enters tonight’s draw to win one of Janet Sketchley’s books, and their comment has yet to be approved, don’t worry. I’ll be back online this evening to check all comments and approve any newcomers before putting everyone’s names into the random name picker thingie.

Have a great day, folks! I’ll leave you with a funny quote:

Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.  – Mark Twain

Do you have any funny quotes to share?

Books reviews and a giveaway soon to end

Soon your chance to win a suspense novel by Janet Sketchley will pass. Did you put your name into the draw?

These are the books you have the chance to win, well … one of them, anyway. Your choice if your name is drawn.

You can read my review HERE.

Then you can enter the draw HERE.  Remember to tell us which of her books you would like to receive.

The draw will be on Thursday, November 30 at 9 PM EST when I will choose one name from among the comments. Each person gets one chance. That’s just two days away!  

Janet has the ability, it seems, to pull you right into the story and you want to know what’s going to happen next. Even if you think this is not the genre you would enjoy you might be surprised, or if you are sure it’s not for you I bet you know someone who would love it. Soooo … you can send them over so they can enter the draw.   🙂    Okay, enough persuasion.

On another topic, it snowed this morning. This isn’t the first snow this season but a lot of it stayed on the ground this time. Roads were very slippery this morning, as they always are with the first snows. I can’t deny it any longer. Winter is extending her long cold fingers to make me shiver, just a reminder that winter is coming and in a month it’s officially that season.  Well, on the cheery side of things … spring is only four months away! 

 

 

Are you ready for winter?

Oliver Wendell Holmes quote

Today I have a quote for you to ponder. And please remember to enter your name for Thursday’s draw … HERE.

 

A mind stretched by a new idea never returns to its original shape. – Oliver Wendell Holmes

 

Any thoughts on that?  Have you had any ideas that stretched your mind and affected you in a huge and wondrous way, maybe changed your life or how you see things?
