Gods, has anyone ever told you you have a way with words?

None of us are Goddesses beyond the fact that we're women, which makes us goddesses by default. :D I think what admins of moderated archives share is essentially an appreciation for the beauty that language can be. Naturally, we want to see every author giving their best, and, speaking for myself, it downs me when I see sloppy work. Which thankfully is in the minority. Struggling with punctuation and/or grammar, I can totally understand! And I'll be the first one to agree that it can take time to learn all those pesty rules, and not only that but to appreciate the nuances of commas versus words etc. My first few chapters were complete rejections until NSS decided to take pity on me.

I absolutely love the Saturday night drabbling and chatting, and we have to thank Lyn_F for being so dedicated to them. Without her, it wouldn't be what it is these days! I occasionally feel guilty for not doing much explanation in the corrections on these nights, but then, most authors post regularly, and everyone knows they can ask if something is unclear to them. It's never a problem; I love sharing knowledge.

I'm glad I don't get those flowers; I don't like cut flowers; they're too temporary. On the other hand, if ever you come this way, let's go to the Botanical Gardens, and we'll take pictures and then talk about the awesome outing and beautiful flowers for many years to come. :D

Um. I stop now. Know that your kind words mean the world to me.
