This doesn't come to my attention just once in a while. No, this happens every single day when I read various online news providers, bloggers, and others. No one seems to take the time to proofread their articles for grammar and spelling errors. But if these people do have proofreaders - they need to be fired.
I can be reading an article, like this one, http://news.discovery.com/animals/squid-same-sex-swingers-110921.html#mkcpgn=rssnws1 and BAM! There it is, an obvious and glaring mistake that someone should have caught, but didn't.
This one was in an article from Discovery News: "You may not be sure who's arm you're planting...... Who's, who's, who's? Everyone should know that "who's" is a contraction for "who is." The correct spelling usage is: whose. Ten points for those of you who already knew that.

Congratulations to Erosa Knowles
Congratulations Erosa! #1 in Bestsellers in Multicultural Romance. Woo hoo! Way to go! Check out her book at this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/books/68262/ref=pd_zg_hrsr_b_1_3_last
Erosa Knowles is a great writer and a good friend. She and I first met online over two years ago as members in a Meetup writers' group. Now she heads up another Meetup writers' group. I followed her when she started up her own group and became the group's first member. She's also a client. I don't view her manuscripts as just work. It's a joy to watch her grow as a writer, and I love reading her manuscripts even as I'm editing them.
