When You Don't Know What You're Doing
So, I've been at the book writing business for almost 10 years now. You would think you'd learn a lot in 10 years. And in some respects, I have.
I have learned how to write using adverbs sparingly. (haha...did you catch that?)
I have learned how to use a comma, for the most part.
