Disclaimer

If you came to Writing, Clear and Simple expecting grammatical and stylistic perfection, keep moving. Everyone makes mistakes, including your humble host (despite my best efforts). If you’re willing to deal with that, stick around and join the fun. And if you spot a writing faux pas here, feel free to bring it to my attention. You might even win some points.
