Exercise #796: Craft
Posted  3/1/19

What’s your go-to for grammar questions?

Recently I needed to know when to use “was” as opposed to using “were,” in a sentence like “If I were queen of the world...”

Show us a scene where grammar becomes an issue, or give us an essay about it.

Critiquers, along with the usual technical critique, you might answer these questions:
     * Was this piece helpful to you as a writer?
     * Why or why not?

Word limit: 1200, including summary
Please use the subject line
