Saturday night I was listening to the blues channel. That's been where I've found the most inspiration lately, JM. Anything goes with blues. However, I'll look over this one to see if there's any other way to word it to make it less negative. My character's a little bossy, ain't she?


"Grits is one of those country-boy words that is both singular and plural-like deer, elk and sheep. I think the singular is appropriate when there's a modifier that makes it clear one is talking about something specific. Like, 'Grits are good for you, but these here grits is tasty.'"~~Joe Wrabek
