In the article, 7 grammar rules you should really pay attention to, it goes over the basic things that you should consider when writing. These include subjunctives, parallelism, verb problems, pronoun problems, a 'dangling' conversation, semicolons, and words. The author, Ben Yagoda, takes you through what to do or not to do and it was very helpful in my opinion.
The picture to the right describes my reaction when I discovered that,"Honey, I shrunk the kids.", should actually be, "Honey, I shrank the kids." Yagoda states that this example is, "a persistent trouble maker you should be aware of.". I feel like this is a common mistake for a lot of people, including myself, so it is a good thing to be aware of when writing.
