I'm glad that my post on using ...Dear Gretchen,<br />I'm glad that my post on using LY adverbs intrigued you. Writing is about choosing the right words for your story. Sometimes the LY adverb may be the right word...the one that fits where no other word will convey the meaning you want to convey. I am honored that you put a link to my blog. It is a privilege for me to be able to read 1000 words of your manuscript! You make blogging fun!<br /><br /><br />Never Give Up<br />Joan Joan Y.

I hadn't missed them, but I must admit that when I read a book now with an abundance of "Ly" adverbs, I do notice.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04124192854568852468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706330086813471942.post-42333768099133745672019-02-11T18:51:18.604-05:002019-02-11T18:51:18.604-05:00This was a great read.

Maybe the Lovely Little "Ly" will come back in fashion. It sure made teaching adverbs easier.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04124192854568852468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4706330086813471942.post-3691785173182817342019-02-11T16:12:40.294-05:002019-02-11T16:12:40.294-05:00As a teacher myself who was a student of an Englis...As a teacher myself who was a student of an English teacher who heavily focused on the "ly" importance, I have often reflected on the adverbs I see when reading today. I plan on taking a closer look at this with a few of the children's books I read with students.Sherryhttps://sherrymlee.comnoreply@blogger.com
