I am enjoying this story very much, as I have enjoyed your other stories that I have read. One aspect of your writing that I have noticed that you could improve on is your use of the word "to." Often, you use "to" when "too" is actually the appropriate term. For future reference, use "too" when expressing degree (e.g. "too much" not "to much"), or when using as a synonym for "also" (e.g. "I am going to the store, too." not "I am going to the store, to."). You may use "to" in almost all other instances of this word (except, of course, when you mean the number "two").
Author Reply: Thank you for your comments, but I feel that your extensive 'lesson' is a little unwarranted. I found TWO instances of TO being used instead of TOO in this chapter (which may in fact just have been typos and I have now corrected), but the correct usage (of which I am well aware) in the previous nine. |
