Grammar Police Monday - Eating Crow

*Don't worry. You didn't lose a day, or your mind either. This lesson is being posted one day early so I can host Carrie Butler's cover reveal for her debut novel, Strength, tomorrow. :) ~~~ Have you ever had to eat crow over a comment you made in a critique?  I have ... more than once. *blush* :P   Today we're going to start with one of my goofs and go from there, covering a few common usage errors. In the process of swapping chapters with a critter of mine, I commented on his use of the word myriad .  I had always heard it used with the word of following it, as in a myriad of stars in the sky, and I marked it as such . He said nothing.
