From the last batch of spam:

I’ve been told that all one needs to break into the fiction scene is a draft and a phone call.

And grammar. That helps, too.

I am far from an expert grammarian. I hate to say it, but I write by feel and flow, and I am guessing that I often make mistakes. But the sentence just didn't flow right. So I dug around online and checked some decent grammar sources before I posted, but even then I thought long and hard. A sentence that's grammatically correct isn't always the one that flows nicely, and vice versa. I fully expected someone to post that there was nothing wrong with that sentence.

And thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed Continuing Education. I wrote it after a bad week at the day job, in case you couldn't tell....
