Melissa always has great tips!
lol I like that G also stands for giveaway.
Thanks for the links. :D
I love grammar girl, and I'm now bookmarking those other two links. Thanks, Carrie! :D
Grammar Girl is an amazing resource! I hop over there all the time. Grammar was my G post today, too. ;-)
G = Gratifying vs Grating Grammar
Grammar and Giveaways. Love it!
Oh, wow. Thanks for the mention! I'm humbled.
Grammar Girl is great.
*hurries to update the GPM files* LOL :D
PS - Grammar Book is another site I find very helpful.

Melissa would be my tip too!
I've been so steeped in grammar for so many years that I drive my family nuts. They're always hyper-correcting when I'm around. "No need, guys! I'm a descriptivist at heart, really."
I love grammar and I love all those links! I will love the giveaway even more if I win! :)
I love Melissa's tips! When I need help, which is rare ;-P I always turn to Grammar Girl's Quick & Dirty Tricks (lie, lay, laid).
My go to help is Grammar Girl, I haven't seen Melissa's site yet. Off to check it out. My goal of 2013 (and A to Z theme is grammar) so these links are great. Thanks!
http://grammar.yourdictionary.com/ is a pretty good resource. One of the things I took home with me my last day of work, after I was laid off, was a pocket-sized book of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and other language usage rules. It was in my desk for all the years I was there and no one has probably missed it. They don't even employ a proofreader anymore.
Great idea for A-Z theme. I'll be following you! And also entering the Giveaway contest.
Ha! I also wrote about Grammar, becuase it's my nemesis! I'm following your blog -- love the idea of pooling resources!
She certainly does! :)
Double the A-Z action! *grins*
No problem, Clare! :)
You know what they say about great minds, Tia... ;)
They're grrreat!
(I don't know why I felt the need to channel my inner-Tony-the-Tiger, but I did. LOL)
You are very welcome, my friend! :) And yes, hurry. Company is coming over!
P.S. Thanks for the link!
Isn't she great? :D
Haha! I've noticed that, too. People are quick to correct themselves around me, like I'm going to pull out a ruler and smack their wrists or something.
If they saw my first drafts, they wouldn't feel that way... *grins*
Yay! :) Good luck, Donna!
*Grins* Rare, indeed. Just don't say that too loudly. Grammar karma can be vicious...
If I hadn't pre-written these posts, I would have totally mentioned your A-Z theme. It has been so helpful! :)
my grammar is terrible. I constantly have to work on.

I always enjoy Melissa's tips and still loving these links...thanks Carrie!
Thanks for sharing, Carrie-Anne! That looks like a good one. :)
And I don't blame you. Someone might as well get some use out of it!
Thanks, Cathy! It's great to "meet" you. :) Good luck!
It's my nemesis, too. That's why I keep Melissa Maygrove around. *grins* Thank you!
Then hopefully these links will help out! We're all works in progress in one area or another. :)
I'm glad to hear that! Thanks for stopping by, Mark. :)
Great info, Carrie!
Heather
Thanks, Heather! :)

I need to start using Grammar Girl. I can always improve my grammar
No problem! :)

Happy A-Z ing.
We must be on the same wavelength! :)
