Where da Grammar At?
Some bitty in Milwaukee (warning, Fox News, remove your brain) got her knickers in a twist over graffiti in her neighborhood that read "Where da bitches at?"
Now, I like correct grammar as much as the next English teacher-- unless it's an English teacher in Taiwan, but nevermind--however, I think that, since this has been a recurring nightmare for the last several decades, it's time for the new generation of grammarians to ease off and allow popular usage to help the language evolve. If it wasn't for language evolution, we'd all be talking like Chaucer.
So, if you're out there writing, throw some prepositions UP!

Will Be Back Soon!
Hey folks and dear readers, sorry I haven't been keeping up with the speed of light on the blog posts. But have been hard at work on projects and promotion for the paperback edition of Somebody Scream. But I will be back up and running soon...LOL. As if you cared, anyway...
