New Category - Pet Peeves

by JM

We all have them - the little things that just grind your nerves. Maybe they’re something everyone does or something only a few people do, but you could just smack your forehead when you see/hear/experience them.

I’m starting a new category which will in part air my pet peeves (and yours if you care to contact me and contribute to the list) and also reveal common new writer mistakes.
