It's the tense, of course. It keeps changing.

ETA: So I'm a few days late on reading the original post. Oops.

I am so excited that you are back. I wouldn't mind a comma relesson. I can always use that. What about a lesson about who/whom? I still don't always know which one to use.

Oh, I just found your class about meter. I'm going to read that and answer my own question.

A couple questions from a poetry novice:

And from what I see, meter is about the syllables, but is there anything else I'm missing with the word meter?

Okay, this is my first try at this kind of poetry, but you can be hard on me because I'm a writer. I have developed a backbone. Leaves fall one by one.

Article Critiques Exlcusive for 500 Members

I have a couple questions about the article critiques. Do I do this by the critique circle button on our regular login, or is there something else I don't know about only for 500 members? What if you don't feel qualified to critique someone else's work? I have never done it before, and the thought o...
