Some might say “it’s a good problem to have,” but in my writing, I tend to use the word verses more often than its homonym, versus. Especially since January when I joined the read-through-the-Bible-in-two-years opportunity, STOP2Read, coordinated by our friends Edie Melson and Cynthia Cavanaugh. We often chat amongst ourselves in the commentary section about favorite verses from the day’s passage, challenging ones, puzzling verses, and especially inspiring words. I’m quite happy that my day lends itself to conversation about God’s Word rather than the need for a word that usually signifies opposition or contradiction or maybe making a difficult choice.
Which brings me to last month’s typo …. My previous column in The Write Conversation compared and contrasted writing retreats and writing conferences. Whereas both have been beneficial to my writing, finances and time constraints often cause me to choose one over the other, a difficult choice usually.
