himself:
"One sheep plus one sheep does not equal two. The sheep will not be plural; there isn't an 's' at the end of sheep". I have stated this a long time ago, a metaphor perhaps for conflicting problems in the language and especially in the written text. We need rules but rules are often overridden by ghastly software who -as it has happened a few times in my books, removed the "d" at the end of my words: an"d" please"d" etc. triggering a huge amount of errors not even picked up by the publishers. "We thought it was intentional. You're the editor". I didn't know this. Emphasizing their point further adding: "It's all live. It's your own reality TV show. People are expecting this from you. You will get it right eventually. It's only a series of essays: you are being monitored. People want to see a progression." I thought I wasn't a work in progress anymore! "A series of essays..." Trial"s" and error"s" ! Is anything really an error or is it consciously or subconsciously presented in a certain way for a specific purpose. That is the question.
