Read the passage from “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe.
From “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe
Shaking off from my spirit what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity [old age or looking like an antique]. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior . . . No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones.

one thing blogging and good copywriting share is a conversational style, and that means it’s fine to fracture the occasional rule of proper grammar in order to communicate effectively. both bloggers and copywriters routinely end sentences with prepositions, dangle a modifier in a purely technical sense, or make liberal use of the ellipsis when an em dash is the correct choice-all in order to write in the way people actually speak. but there are other mistakes that can detract from your credibility. while we all hope what we have to say is more important than some silly grammatical error, the truth is some people will not subscribe or link to your blog if you make dumb mistakes when you write, and buying from you will be out of the question.
