I'm reading a story where the author uses adverbs, and puts them before the verb. Eg: "Thanks," I awkwardly said. My way of speaking is to put the adverb after the verb. "Thanks," I said awkwardly. Awkwardly isn't a great use here, but what do you think for order in sentence?

Don't you hate it when you see an interesting tweet from someone you know fairly well and like, and Twitter whisks it away after you like it but before you can comment on it? And the you can never find it again?

@HopelessOptimst That's a terrible thing for an art teacher to say! It's unusual, it's colorful, it's creative and it's probably unique. It's art. This may be a good time to take him to an art museum where hopefully there're different kinds of art. Show him a Picasso or Jackson Pollack.

@Koksalakn Dogs are social animals, loyal to a pack. In our world, humans are their pack. I've known cats and horses to be just as loyal and loving as dogs. I think most animals, with kind treatment, are the same.

The big trend on Twitter is to ask questions in order to raise profiles and become better known. Some of these questions are interesting but many are similar to, "Do you still have skin?" How do you feel about this?

@frankdpi @LaurenIpsome Religion probably aided survival of early humans by providing common ground, giving them hope, and keeping them in line. Today it seems to inflame conflict. But humans are so combative they'd find something to fight about even without religion. So strangely enough, probably no.

Often question... Can you recommend a really good book on writing? My experience and answer... Read a thousand+ books, all genres, all kinds. You learn to write, the rhythms, pauses, breaths, distances, through osmosis, by reading. And then writing. Learn by doing.

@byMorganWright Disagree. People are writing when thinking, pondering, researching, learning plot, structure, timing and dialogue from TV and movies. Even resting. The brain needs a rest to process life. The thing that defines a writer is the end product. Even a drawerful of unpublished ms's.

Just finished an awful book. Supposed to be stand alone, wasn't. Ended in mid action. Full of typos/misspellings. If I reviewed, I'd give it a 1, be tempted to rant about how awful it was. Someone posed the question earlier, if the book's not good, do you review it? Conflicted.

Twitter was much more fun when we only saw tweets from people we followed. Though most of the unfollowers I see on my timeline are nice, interesting people, they dilute it. I suspect seeing only one's followers is a perk only blue checks get now. But I wish EveryOne, a great day

@LunaLuvgood2017 Horses panic. Their owners might not have had a trailer, or the horses may have been too panicked to load. Fighting a crazed 1500 pound horse onto a trailer is both dangerous and foolish. And there might have been no time. Turning them loose gave them a good chance of survival.

@hereforstudents Yes it sounds reasonable! Enrollment has gone down by 110,000 students, 5.2% in the last few decades and instead of laying off teachers, Liberals increased the number of teachers by 14,000 or 12.5% Ford is trying to correct that imbalance. Unions are the only ones benefitting.

Found this little guy on the trail, 10 feet from a pond. We think it was newly hatched, from the one hole in the sand pile, and got caught and dropped by our resident blue heron. We put him back in the water and he headed straight for the bottom. Baby snapping turtle.
