Today’s glitch:
Add a comma after cyborg.
Don’t capitalize if, because it’s neither a proper noun nor the first word of a sentence.
Change she may also be pregnant to she may also have been pregnant.
He was a cyborg, and she was a clone. They were also an item, and if that wasn’t enough for society to take in, she may also have been pregnant.
(I’m too tired to type the bloggish tirade that the topic of this example deserves…)

About Thomas Weaver
For several years, I’ve been putting my uncanny knack for grammar and punctuation, along with an eclectic mental collection of facts, to good use as a Wielder of the Red Pen of Doom (editor).
I'm physically disabled, and I currently live with my smugly good-looking twin Paul, who writes military science fiction and refuses to talk about his military service because he can’t. Sometimes Paul and I collaborate on stories, and sometimes I just edit whatever he writes. It's worked out rather well so far.
My list of non-writing-related jobs from the past includes librarian, art model, high school teacher, science lab gofer… Although I have no spouse or offspring to tell you about, I do have eight cats. I currently spend my time blogging, reading, editing, and fending off cats who like my desk better than my twin’s.
