I hate Grammar-NAZIs as we’ve come to call them, but YOU WANT ONE EDITING YOUR BOOK!! LOL
I just came from a Local Eatery and on their "Lunch Discounts Menu" on which it said "Restrictions Due Apply" and of course the Waitress and I had a great laugh that the wrong "DO" snuck past the editing/review process and how I discuss these things in my HTWABAGIP book - which now she is eager to buy copies of (I only had copy of TS, not both, in the Car, so I'll be going back next week and she's promised to buy a copy of both TS and HTWABAGIP as long as I am there with them to Personally Autograph them for her (cuz now she gets to say SHE KNOWS AN INTERNATIONALLY PUBLISHED AUTHOR) now interested in the other "Pearls of Wisdom" or "Unique-Gems" (so-to-speak) are within both.
And I said all that, to say this... Hopefully people get the subtle word-choices that you choose to put in your manuscript and not blow past them. WARNING: A TERROR STRIKES BOOK SPOILER coming. In TS there are several locations and points where I carefully, purposefully, craft some word-play. Double-entundra's if you will, but not sexual in orientation. For example, just one is the juxtaposition of both "savior" and "Saviour" both having very important DIFFERENT IMPLICATIONS (slightly different, by degree, meanings)! I hate to give that one away, during interviews ( https://TerrorStrikes.info/interviews ) I usually give the "SPOILER" of how "STRIKES" in the Title of the book is double-meaning. STRIKES as in Strike (Assault) and as in Strike (Pitch in the Baseball Rules Strike-zone, as there is a Baseball sub-thread/theme in the TS book.
Also let me add I like to Joke during interviews ( https://TerrorStrikes.info/interviews ) - if you think you're complimenting me on my use of metaphors I will take offense... cuz I'm far too clever and smart for simple metaphores, I USE METASIXES!!! :P LOL

Political-Thriller #1 Amazon Bestseller (https://TerrorStrikes.info/bestseller).
Yes, about Terrorism, but it is NOT a book about Death but of Life and Living!
Life, over Death. Hope, over Fear. Faith, over Despair. Love, over Hate. Good, over Evil. Individualism, over Collectivism. Freedom, over Tyranny.

CTP (S3EOctSpecial13) Chasing Meaning Beyond The Byline
[BOOKS / AUTHORS Weeks - Week 3 sub-episode 1 (Mon. 20251027)]
We sit down with longtime sports columnist Patrick Sangimino to talk about his novel Dogs Chase Cars and how a career can eclipse the people who matter. We dig into newspapers’ decline, the rise of paywalls and clicks, and why relationships must come first.
• golden age of newspapers contrasted with today’s thin print and paywalls
• layoffs, consolidation and the shifting business model of local news
• title origin as a metaphor for chasing success without purpose
• relationships strained by ambition and the cost of neglect
• journalism standards versus social engagement metrics
• hashtags, discoverability and the difference between reporting and verification
• adapting to technology without ...
I am NOW BEYOND TIRED of the #LEFTARDS #SPIN about some #RedStates going to #Gerrymander Districts when LEFT has been doing it since the 1800's!!!! Elbridge Gerry (who it was named after) was part of the #FEDERALISTS (Jefferson, Madison, et al) that from start kept arguing for MORE FEDERAL POWER AND AUTHORITY that Anti-Federalists opposed; and each of them that got elected eroded the #USConstitution each time.
BUT TODAY'S #FASCIFEDERALISTS (as I call them) are like them ON STEROIDS!!!
WE, on right, FINALLY doing what they have been doing since 1800's!!!
