Tuesday Two
In two sentences tell me what you have learned about writing recently.
Monday Muddle: you’re, your, yore
you’re: (subject pronoun + verb) contraction of you are
your: (possessive pronoun) shows that you own something;
it belongs to you
yore: (noun) a time long ago
The term yore is not commonly used anymore except in Christmas carols and some literary contexts. It is preceded by the preposition “of” and is used in expressions like days of yore or knights of yore.

Tuesday Two
In two sentences tell me about your work in progress.
Monday Muddle: I’ll, ill
Some people like to put apostrophes into words where they aren’t necessary, but others don’t want to be bothered with the extra keystroke. If you leave the apostrophe out of ill, it will look sickly. 🤪
I’ll: (subject pronoun + verb) contraction of I will
ill: (adjective) unwell, sick;
(adverb) badly, hardly;
(noun) harm, misfortune

Nothing discloses real character like the use
~Robert G. Ingersoll
of power…. Most people can bear adversity.
But if you wish to know what a man really is,
give him power. This is the supreme test.
