I’m about to send out our latest press release. I gave it one final readthrough, just to be sure I didn’t miss anything dire, and I found this:
“A published poet as well as playwright, Ziegler’s play BFF was hailed….”
Argh! Not only does the sentence go on to be passive, it begins with a seemingly obvious dangling modifier. However, this is included in all of our press information that I’ve read through and found no problem with until just now. I suppose I can’t beat myself up too badly (for sanity’s sake), but I’m irked. And I feel like such a rookie.
